Dr, Freiden is an internist with a “sub-specialty” in infectious disease. There is absolutely no reason on this earth, except politics, why the person running the CDC is not a top drawer infectious disease doctor/researcher with credentials and training in every avenue of infectious disease, and bio-terrorism. This guy is another Obama political hack.

Why are they even letting him talk anymore????

I think it's a extension of the stooped clock being right twice a day. Frieden sounds smart when he stops talking.

It has been three weeks and our little hospital in TN still doesn’t have any hazmat suits, masks or protocols.

All we got is a face mask and snorkel with some duck tape and a tarp.

Beings as we are from TN, we know the duck tape is needed to fix lacerations, but what can we do with the tarp, the mask and snorkel?

Could a suit of duck tape, sticky side out trap them little viruses like fly-paper?

Brilliant. Our money at the CDC ain’t been for naught.

They don’t call it The Center For Disease Control for nothing!

LOL!!! Then he dug himself deeper!

“I think there are two different parts of that equation,”

Did Frieden pass algebra?

“Yes, CDC vetted the message, and, yes, we believe it’s accurate,” Frieden responded.

“I think there are two different parts of that equation,” he continued. “The first is, if you’re a member of the traveling public and are healthy, should you be worried you might have gotten it by sitting next to someone? And the answer is no.”

“Second, if you are sick and you may have Ebola, should you get on a bus? And the answer to that is also no. You might become ill, you might have a problem that exposes someone around you,” he said.

His scientific credentials are actually pretty good -- for an Obama appointee. The problem seems to be that he seems to have forgotten everything he learned in medical school, during his internal medicine residency, during his infectious disease fellowship and while earning his MPH.

This is what bureaucracies call clarification.

Orwell had some other ideas.

You know a Islamic suicide bomber ..

Who is already planing to die for the cause. ...

If he infect himself with ebola and just waits till he good and sick..

And goes to a crowded area to go boom...

Becomes a biological dirty bomb of WMD portions....

At this point. . How is that not unlikely to happen... with the clowns we have running the show

Pretty good credentials aren’t good enough IMO. There are ID specialists dedicated in genetic, molecular, microbial pathogenisis, epidemiological, and ID control and then specialties in each of these, yet OUR CDC director has a sub-specialty in ID.

I’m sure there are many of those barbarians that would love to pull that off.

Wait, you can give Ebola, but can't get it on a bus? Can you get Ebola but not give Ebola on a train?

Who is this guy... a member of Biden's family tree?
