Quarantine Ebola, Not Jobs!

Build Keystone XL

This fits with the regime's approval of quarantining soldiers but not civilians. You see, you quarantine the people at low risk of exposure but let the people at high expose go to restaurants and bowling allies, ride subways and go on long bike rides.

We should rename it Doctors Without Brains.

funny I heard a CDC official say that the quarantine would be a “disincentive” for medical workers to go to Africa to fight Ebola

these people are always going on about how everything they do is based on science.

When did “disincentive” a viable scientific principle of whether you do or do not do something.

simple truth is they work in an environment where they were exposed

No one can give a hundred percent guarantee they didn't contracted it.

quarantine it just one final safety precaution that reduces the odds, however remote, you might be a carrier and spread to the general population.. all for the cost of the small inconvenience.

no different than the astronauts ...they were visiting an area that was considered by all scientific evidence a completely lifeless void.

but we still took the additional safety precaution just in case it's called prudence and common sense

Anyone she has been around should sue her if she comes down with “obala”. Even if she does not come down with it, she should be sued for making people “afraid” that they may come down with it.

Judge Napolitano did a good job of ‘splainin’ it - Liberty is presumed and we need to be very careful about taking it away in blanket mode for “the common good”. Too many of our Freedoms are lost when we allow such for convenience and we actually go against the Constitution while telling ourselves it is OK this time/situation.

Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your......

(Since all records of obama's past were lost in a tragic boating accident and fire, no one can be certain that the guy in the red circle isn't him...)

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...

As it turns out, that quarantine was a good idea after all.

PING!
