Crisis? What crises. Thanks to Dr. Paugh for another well thought out piece. Scary stuff and the barn door is open and the cattle are being scattered to all points on the compass with no tracking being put in place. Of course when they show up for their court hearings, we'll know where they are. Right? Ummmm, maybe not so much.

The report said some illegal immigrants’ “unfamiliarity with bathroom facilities caused unsanitary conditions and exposure to human waste.”

Just think. These kids will soon be sharing classrooms with your kids and serving your food in restaurants. Sleep well, America. You earned it.

For the love of....

The List:

Besides TB, other respiratory diseases, and a potential Ebola outbreak, unscreened and non-quarantined illegal aliens can bring in diseases that can be spread through contact with unvaccinated children and infected individuals who do not wash their hands after using the bathroom or who discard used toilet tissue with fecal matter into waste baskets instead of flushing them.

- Poliomyelitis (viral infection spread through the fecal-oral route)
- Norovirus acute gastroenteritis (spread through food and water contaminated by fecal matter)
- Giardiasis (a parasite transmitted via the fecal-oral route)
- Hepatitis A (a virus spread by eating or drinking water contaminated with infected feces)
- Hepatitis E (fecal oral transmission route)
- Rotavirus (vaccination can prevent it in infants; it is contagious especially in infants and children)
- Typhoid fever (caused by bacteria Salmonella; sick people and carriers have the bacteria in the digestive tract and in their feces; travelers are advised to be careful when going abroad)
- Shigellosis or bacillary dysentery (caused by the Shigella bacteria spread through the fecal-oral route)
- Cholera (an infection of the bacterium vibrio cholera which is transmitted through food and water contaminated with feces)
- Cryptosporidiosis (a protozoan parasite spread through the fecal-oral route)
- Ascariasis (round worm infection in young children, prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions where sanitation and hygiene are poor; not common in the U.S.)

BTW, Cholera is on that list. Cameroon is having a horrible cholera outbreak, but it’s being overshadowed by the Ebola epidemic.

It looks like the world is going to hell in a handbasket.

Only one part I disagree with:

“Although the Ebola virus was generally thought of as being spread through direct contact with bodily fluids, a 2012 experiment, which reported that macaques (primates) contracted Ebola from piglets inoculated oro-nasally with the Zaire strain of the Ebola virus (EBOV), while caged in the same room without physical contact, cannot be explained.”

Um, sure it can. That strain went airborne.

Imagine this scenario: Obama holds his U.S.-African Leaders Summit [4-6 August 2014], some who come from the Ebola infected countries. What if one of these government entourage carried Ebola into Washington, DC? Assume that the disease does not manifest itself until after the African leaders have left. These people are now returning to their countries to spread the disease. Washington, DC is now infected. What do you think the power mongers would do?

Right! They'd leave the site of the contagion to spread it across the United States. In their mind, a quarantine to keep the disease within the boundaries of Dc so it can be fought and contain is TOO risky to their mortal existence. They want out. In so doing, they multiply the chance of spreading Ebola throughout the United States. [Of course, thanks to the morons in the Donkey and GOPee establishment elites to get illegal alien votes, they might have already permitted Ebola into the United States already!]

[The Great RJ]

With these illegal alien kids being dumped in secret all over the country I am waiting for major disease outbreaks when school starts this fall. Undoubtedly some of these kids will end up in small schools without school nurses or other public health resources and the diseases and parasites they carry will spread like wildfire before being detected.

I heard Rush say that it takes the average illegal immigrant 45 days to reach our border from their origin.

Ebola has an incubation period of at most 21 days. In most cases, it is closer to 8 days.

Even with someone who has a very long incubation before symptoms appear, there is little chance of them still being alive once they reach our border.

While Ebola could get here by plane, it is highly unlikely to get here via illegal immigrants. The other diseases, however, are a concern.
