I had a doctors appt yesterday involving some $$$ procedures. As we spoke I said...”...but thank God this is all free thanks to Obamacare!”
For a second she thought I was serious. That look could have cut steel. Her comment was “You have no Idea.”
“Yes actually,” I said, “I do.”
Her reply?
“I wish more did”.
“It May Get Worse Before it Gets Better”...Yep, just like the Black Death got “better” after it killed half of Europe.
He’s from the Democrat Party. Don’t forget.
Sounds like where I work.
I playback some CBS radio mystery theatre at low level or playback some saved YouTube lifted videos of old TV with the screen face down. I know what they look like, I like the dialog more.
Classic liberal response. No responsibility for the actions that led to at least two becoming symptomatic. Assuring the public that the government is up to the task and not to worry, just like they were assured when patient zero was admitted to the hospital.
Were that mayor a Republican, the wolves would be out right now, chomping at his heels for failures at the hospital. They’d be critical of the government for those exposed having to maintain watch on their own vitals. They’d be howling for universal testing of all of those exposed.
But no, it’s a liberal in charge, so the liberals shift their focus upwards to the nearest conservative, taking aims at a ‘red state’ that can’t contain the virus.
Of course, if conservatives go after the mayor, they’ll deflect, stating that the hospital is a private entity, and if we ONLY had public hospitals and end private hospital care, this would never have been a problem. Of course this is false; cities like Dallas have extensive ties to private hospitals and exert considerable control over them.
Had it been a public hospital, you’d have layers of bureaucratic levels between the city and the hospital and blaming the city would be useless.
Mayor, stop acting like a liberal. Call for a criminal investigation of early mistakes, say what those mistakes were, and what steps have been taken to end those mistakes.
Now, those who happen to be reporting from the Pentagon, time for you to ask some very good questions. What differences in protocol is the military using in Ebola encounters? Have they already adapted their protocols to prevent the exposures that happened in Dallas? Will the military repeat Dallas’ failures?
If Bush were in office, this would have made Katrina look pale in comparison to the vitriol that would be spewed against him.
But Obama, as always, gets a pass from the media.
Another day has passed without any news on Louise or Jesse.
Nahh, it’ll still be Bush’s fault, I’m sure. After all, how many Katrina evacuees are still in Dallas?
No, there appears to be a news blackout on Duncan’s family.
The last I heard, they had been relocated to a donated house in a gated community.
Then, have heard nothing after that as to where they are, or their health conditions.
I am about ready to put up a sign on a major street where I live...”yo...WIMPY Americans...YOU sealed the death of freedom”
I am a PCP...getting people involved is near impossible....and after 20+ years of sounding the alarms...after Nov 4...I am going to take a long if not permanent break
All people need to see to understand the condition of America is to read Right wing websites and see supposed conservatives demanding we vote for liberal RINOs ‘no matter what’ when they know full well that more conservative options are on the ballot.
Then watch them try deflecting their PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for electing the very RINOs that sided with Barry to open the borders, keep them that way and import people infected with a raft of deadly diseases.
On what freaking planet is ANY of that Conservative, good for America or anything in the Ball park? This one obviously. Which is why any aliens out there probably have this place quarantined from the galaxy. Unlike the RINOs and Ebola.
There is no point blaming Obama, though he surely deserves it. We collectively did this to ourselves.
"After Duncan became seriously ill at her apartment last week, Louise Troh, her 13-year-old son and two nephews were quarantined at a house somewhere in the Dallas area. They will remain there until around 19 October, when the 21-day incubation period for Ebola will be over. It meant they could not be among the 150 or so in the pews who sang hymns, listened to Bible readings, prayed and held candles that flickered, throwing dancing shadows on to the church walls."
Reports of four individual who remain in quarantine at the moment are:
***** LATimes: Latest from quarantined family 10/13/2014 9:49PM
" A total of 48 people who had contact with Duncan are being monitored for fever or other symptoms until Sunday, the end of the 21-day Ebola incubation period.None has become ill. Duncan’s fiancee, Louise Troh, is among them.
Reached by telephone Monday, she said she was “feeling all right” ..."
Thanks...may want to make a separate thread
I’ve been thinking of doing something like that. It might be hard to hear though what with phones ringing and chattering of directives. Plus for some reason my workstation speaker is at the other end of the counter/desk.
