Sounds like everything is under control.
It’s precisely what you’d expect in a society where disease has the potential of wiping out your civilization, ever how marginal or meager it is. We are probably six months away from massive migration episodes where everyone in Sierra Leone is going to pack and escape. What do you think their neighbors will do in this case?
A misprint. I corrected it:
Several buildings were attacked and gangs of youths roamed the streets shouting "No more Obola!"
BTW, I just heard on BBC International that they are finding 100 bodies a day of Obola victims.
43 quarantined people threaten to break out of Ebola isolation for lack of food in Liberia
Just look at what Obama is sending our military into... when it is our guys who are murdered the you know what is going to hit the fan!
“No more Ebola!”
If only it were that simple.
From what I have read, many people in Sierra Leone and Liberia think the Ebola epidemic was caused by an UN vaccination program that was launched about the same time the epidemic started. I’m not agreeing with this opinion, but you can then understand why rioting starts when there is news of the WHO coming in with an experimental vaccination. That’s why they are shouting, “No more Ebola!” meaning stop the immunizations.
keeping in mind that the cagey obamites have announced that our US military in neighboring Liberia will not have any “contact with patients” but will be taking blood samples
Who knows when an incident of crowd anger and panic could turn into “World War Z” meets “BlackHawk Down”
Isn’t this how the Walking Dead virus began, a rushed vaccine?
A link to this thread has been posted on the Ebola Surveillance Thread
Yes, a 'march' against Ebola... they think they're in Ferguson?
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...
