"that can't happen here"
"There is no reason to secure our borders, or stop flights from West Africa..."
Yup, so far it’s spreading just like it did in Africa...medical people get it first. The medical system gets overwhelmed/depleted and then it’s a wildfire.
Wait just a darn minute there - I thought the hospital put him outside next to the medical waste bin and left him there to dive because he was “black” - that’s what the right Reverend Jessie Jagoff said - what gives?
This bothers me because a couple of family members work in the hospital industry in DFW. In Ft Worth, but too close for comfort.
The "Boston Blobe" ??
Cheers!
I heard that number, 70, earlier and can’t believe it. How stupid are these people? You want the least number of people necessary to be in contact.
I hope Jesse Jackoff observes that many of those workers risking their lives are white.
70 people paid by who?! Close the $&!# borders and quarantine Africa.
This is evidence that many more people were exposed and more Ebola cases to come. Who chose Texas for this?
I don’t really think 70 is enough, do you? Clearly, if the hospital were not so racist, they’d have put hundreds of people on Thomas Duncan’s case. After all, he was a privileged visitor from Africa who deigned to trust them with his health.
The only safe way to treat those infected is to quarantine them with their own drugs and allow them to treat themselves. That means there is no safe way to treat them.
IT WAS BECAUSE YOU LET THE LIBERIAN WITH EBOLA INTO OUR COUNTRY....
he spread the disease....he knew he was at risk...he knew he was probably spreading his death to many people...even with his 67 IQ he KNEW....
A link to this thread has been posted on the Ebola Surveillance Thread
How many children to those 70 staffers have? How many other patients did they treat?
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
