They've gotten away with it time and again. With AIDS, SARS, avian flu, swine flu and two past Ebola hysterias
The current Ebola outbreak is “the most severe, acute health emergency seen in modern times,” Ian Smith, the World Health Organization’s executive director, announced at a mid-October press conference.
Huh? Worse than the “Spanish flu” of 1918-19? Extrapolated to today’s world population, that would mean 60 million to 150 million deaths. Worse than AIDS, with its 35 million deaths?
But the media weren’t asking skeptical questions. The next day, reporting on a separate WHO conference, a New York Times headline blared: “New Ebola Cases May Soon Reach 10,000 a Week, Officials Predict.”

seriously...all these crisises are meant to bring more power to the govt and to place friends in high places for big money......
We are constantly being played like a string orchestra by the media with massive government input.
heck, I was lied to again . . . Yawn!
it is so common as to be predictable.
Stills sucks, but little can be done.
It's all about containment and everyone knows it.
"During the 1945 United Nations Conference on International Organization, Dr. Szeming Sze, a delegate from China, conferred with Norwegian and Brazilian delegates on creating an international health organization under the auspices of the new United Nations. After failing to get a resolution passed on the subject, Alger Hiss, the Secretary General of the conference, recommended using a declaration to establish such an organization."
So Alger Hiss was Secretary General of the conference.
To the reader: does this set off any red flags in your mind, that something might not be "kosher" with this organization ? Hint: Try reading up on Alger Hiss and the link.
For extra credit: try to research until you begin to understand the connection between financial elites and communism.
The media graphs showed the cumulative cases, so they always showed a massive climbing total.
Seems like any reasonable person who wanted to know whether the situation was getting worse would want to see the new cases per day or week.
Very, very difficult to get those graphs. In fact about six weeks ago to get them to show a friend of mine who was convinced the sky was falling I had to download the data and make my own graphs.
When properly graphed, of course, it showed nothing at all like what the press was reporting.
Aesop at RaconteurReport is pretty convinced that Africa is still in the throes of a growing Ebola epidemic, and there is no fading out or “leveling off” at all. He says that the reason we’re not hearing anything is because the countries in Africa are deliberately hiding the expansion of the disease, and because Africans in general are not bothering to report to the government anymore because they (apparently) don’t understand that it’s the disease and not the report that is killing them.
I knew that when I first heard it.
The Ebola ping list posters will have some input on this.
Easy to say we were lied to now, after laborious and painstaking protocols were finally worked out. Who knew you had to spray the health workers down with disinfectant before they even thought about removing their spacesuit, and then follow an incredibly complex routine for taking it off? Even the wonderful CDC had it all wrong.
Without those, and the persistent propaganda campaign against touching the dead bodies, we would be up to ten thousand a week.
Five billion is a bit excessive now. I believe much of this is to pay for ebola patients coming here for treatment.
Not much of an honesty track record when it comes to government. Self reliance and determination is a personal responsibility and duty. Every day the government is tirelessly working to strip it away from the people.
Another factor, for sure. There have been reports of families hiding the fact that a family member has ebola, so that they will be able to follow their traditional practices.
with all this crying wolf, I wouldn’t be surprised when the warning for the real plagues of the wrath of God are ignored.

1865 new cases in the past 21 days, 1319 of them in Sierra Leone (population 6 million). For comparison, the second largest outbreak in history (behind the current one) had a total of 425 cases. I’d say the Ebola outbreak is still a significant issue or at least has the potential to become a significant issue.
Exactly...cui bono? Political stories are for cover and distraction, but from what? Shocking stories, exposes or when they want to give money to friends and investors, er, I mean donors.
oh well, at least this lie helped turn scared moms against Obama and the democrats right before an election :)
The only thing single welfare moms care more about than government handouts... is the safety of their children.
But “our” government controlled media has decided to downplay the danger right now, as it conflicts with several other “narratives” they are running on loosely connected issues.
It will pop up again soon in importance.
Decidedly too late to do anything about it for all of humanity.
