[Smokin' Joe]

I have spent a little time compiling links to threads about the Ebola outbreak in the interest of having all the links in one thread for future reference.

Please add links to new threads and articles of interest as the situation develops.

Thank You all for you participation.

Many many more Nigerians can afford to bug out if things deteriorate there.

“CONAKRY: The medical school professors no longer want Kadiatou Fanta in the classroom. Her boyfriend has broken up with her. Each day the 26-year-old eats alone and sleeps alone. Even her own family members are afraid to touch her months after she survived Ebola.”

“The Economic Community of West African States(ECOWAS) has announced the death of one of their staff who worked for the Lagos Liaison Office of the ECOWAS headquarters.

The 36-year-old man identified as Mr. Jatto Asihu Abdulqudir, was among those who assisted the late Liberian, Patrick Sawyerr, when he came to Lagos for a regional meeting and was quarantined after Sawyerr died of the deadly disease.

The death of the ECOWAS official has now brought to three the number of people who died of Ebola in Nigeria with the first two been Mr. Sawyer, who brought the Ebola virus into Nigeria, and one of the nurses who treated him at the First Consultant Hospital in Lagos.”

So this guy came to Sawyer’s aid, contracted Ebola and died from that one contact. Yikes.

This Sawyer was a weapon of mass destruction.

[Black Agnes]

Yup. The Nigerians are not fond of Sawyer. One of the Lagos newspapers referred to him as a ‘one man WMD’.
