General: US Troops Who Contract Ebola Will Be Quarantined in Liberia

If any American soldiers in Liberia contract the deadly Ebola virus, they will be quarantined, stabilized, and evacuated to a medical facility for treatment, said the Ebola mission commander, adding that the U.S. military hospitals that will admit potentially infected troops have not yet been identified.

“If, God forbid, one of these soldiers, sailors, airmen, or marine contracted this disease, as I mentioned, they would be stabilized, they would be quarantined, we would go through the appropriate protocols,” Maj. Gen. Darryl Williams, commander of U.S. Army Africa, said on October 16 while briefing reporters in the Pentagon by telephone from Liberia. “People would be attending to them in the appropriate PPE [personal protective equipment]."

I've been preaching for some time that pensions and benefits has bound our people to the Satanist in the white hut.....they don't want to loose out....

stop pensions for military and govt alike...make them have portable 401K's like most people so they can get out of the slavitude to the satan sooner rather than later....

the days of me encouraging young people into the service are long gone.....I no longer believe in the military of my mother and father, my brothers, my husband and my brother in laws....its GONE.....

The man at Emory is a an American doctor who was working for WHO in Sierra Leone. More recent articles have a statement from him that he had a very difficult illness, but that he is going to be OK and Ebola-free and would share more at a future time.

When I get really angry, I cry.

This is unconscionable.

No bodies will likely be coming to the CONUS. The bodies will not leave Africa. The ashes will arrive.

Obama is anti-military, so this is a way to dispose of a few.

Leave our troops to die in Africa but let illegals spread it here. Protocol for me is not protocol for me.

Nothing but the best for everyone but our warriors - I’m so glad to be retired from the AF after my 24 years and now getting ready to do it again after 15 years civil service at and AF base; can’t stand to keep seeing what is happening to our warriors on a daily basis.

Ok, China, I apologize for ranting before doing some research. Your country has sent millions in supplies since April, and your fourth medical team is on site.

How about a joint military operation with our Marines and Army to build some clinics?

India—you geniuses! Stopping aid flights INTO Liberia. Wouldn’t have anything to do with a belief that Liberians are not human? Worried about the cows?

And you can’t trust the lives of troops who contract ebola to a VA system that has patients die before they are seen by a doctor.

———U.S. military hospitals that will admit potentially infected troops have not yet been identified———

Are those hospitals in Germany? What do the Germans have to say about that?

"“protocol” is doublespeak for bio war"

----------------------------------------------->

Obama has had pretty much free rein softening up the belly of the American people.

Breakout of Ebola is a coup de gras.

The people of America were willing participants of the softening up also. In fact, they twice installed him in the White House.

without them [the people of America], he, Obama would have just been another Chicago turd.

If you are nuts, then call me nuts, too.

I think that what you have posted is on the money.

Judicial Watch has learned that the Obama administration is actively formulating plans to admit Ebola-infected non-U.S. citizens into the United States for treatment. - Specifically, the goal of the administration is to bring Ebola patients into the United States for treatment within the first days of diagnosis.

That has been known for several weeks.

It is unclear who would bear the high costs of transporting and treating non-citizen Ebola patients.

No, it is very clear who will bear the high costs, it is the American taxpayer.

Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles can plainly see that.

BS. The ONLY COUNTRY in the world that isn’t taking protective measures IS THE USA. Should tell you something about what Obama wants. The destabilization, and eventually the destruction of the United States. He is a terrorist, an enemy inside the gates. A Trojan Horse. Who would suspect a US senator with an American family and a degree from an Ivy League university? Only those who dare dig deep enough. Then no one believes anyways.

All the left has to say is “paranoid republicans, bitter clingers, conspiracy theorists, etc” because then the left would have to admit they were wrong. Accountability. None of the democrats are capable of taking responsibility.
