The monstrous Islamist group, ISIS, shares the lunatic left’s enthusiasm for Ebola

The Ebola outbreak has stirred worldwide concern—and panic in some quarters. It is by far the largest outbreak of the deadly disease in recorded history. The media have jumped on the story for its obvious headline value, but at the same time they have served us poorly by misreporting, minimizing or simply refusing to report this administration’s glaring failure to protect American citizens. So what are the facts, and what kind of response can we expect from official Washington? Just the Facts

Unless, as seems more than merely possible, one or more of the plague epidemics that devastated Europe and Asia were, in fact, Ebola or its relative out of Africa.

I agree with you and believe there is compelling information that parallel plagues were occurring. One was bacterial and the other viral. I am fascinated by the etymology of the word quarantine. From nautical history it means 40 days. During the plaques areas of infection were placed under quarantine. I don't think rats necessarily understood they were locked in too. The 40 days is interesting and is very close to the consensus of 42 days to be free of ebola. JMHO.

Bring Out Your Dead

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...
