Ebola and Political Correctness will Kill Many Americans

Our country must secure our borders

The epidemic that has devastated Western Africa has now arrived in the United States. In recent weeks, several infected healthcare workers have been flown back to the United States for successful treatment. However, a greater threat looms from ordinary citizens knowingly or unknowingly bringing the disease to our country.

This week it was uncovered that Thomas Duncan of Liberia flew to Dallas, Texas on United Airlines. He started his travels in Africa, stopped in Brussels, Belgium before arriving in the United States. While he did not show symptoms of the disease on the flight, he became sick in Dallas and is currently in critical condition.

Purportedly, Duncan traveled to Dallas to see family members, but his former boss in Monrovia, Liberia said that Duncan knew he had the virus and traveled to the United States to seek treatment. While Duncan’s family denies the accusation, there is no denying he came in contact with a pregnant woman in Monrovia on the verge of dying of Ebola.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

Sad thing is the govt is downplaying it for now.... until it’s too late.

Sean has a bad case of Ebloga and doesn’t want to give it to the rest of us by tainting us with his comments.

It’s unfortunate that he is too good to associate with FReepers.

Even though he is gay, there are still things we might learn from him.

Ping…

A link to this thread has been posted on the Ebola Surveillance Thread

The game of Ebola Roulette continues...

*click* spin *click* spin *click* spin…BANG!

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!

Bring Out Your Dead

We’re gonna need

a bigger cart!

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...

How come you only post from a single source?

Jehmu Greene was just on Fox, and seems to think by protecting Americans from Ebola is akin to fear mongering and yes, discrimination.

I’m deeply saddened by your suspension but I suppose I can always watch My Cat from Hell or Bad Dog! for entertainment until you’ve served your sentence...

If Africa wasn't so poor there'd be more people making that 'free medical care' trip.... This man had two choices - stay in Africa and get horrible care - and most likely die - or hop on a plane and get unlimited free care at the best hospitals in the world... with air conditioning.

This perverse incentive is one more reason to stop all travel out of hot zones UNTIL more is known about this strain.
