Nigerian health authorities raced to stop the spread of Ebola on Saturday after a man sick with one of the worlds deadliest diseases brought it by plane to Lagos, Africas largest city with 21 million people.
The fact that the traveler from Liberia could board an international flight also raised new fears that other passengers could take the disease beyond Africa due to weak inspection of passengers and the fact Ebolas symptoms are similar to other diseases.
Officials in the country of Togo, where the sick mans flight had a stopover, also went on high alert after learning that Ebola could possibly have spread to a fifth country.
Screening people as they enter the country may help slow the spread of the disease, but it is no guarantee Ebola wont travel by airplane, according to Dr. Lance Plyler, who heads Ebola medical efforts in Liberia for aid organization Samaritans Purse.
Unfortunately the initial signs of Ebola imitate other diseases, like malaria or typhoid, he said.

You have been brainwashed by the fag lobby...
I’m disappointed in you...
There are several potential patient zeros going back to the 1960s.
But you’re right, if we were more honest about the homosexual epicenter and bathhouse culture spreading the diseases, and fought the homosexual revolution then, we’d have had far fewer deaths.
But they made it a mainstream STD, describing it as equally dangerous to heterosexuals and glamorizing people who got it from blood transfusions as the normal patient, instead of admitting it was overwhelmingly gay men and people were closest to (including their girlfriends and addicts they shared needles with).
I heard on the radio today that the American doctor who was treating Ebola patients in Africa was living with his wife and children.
His wife and children have flown home to the United States, according to the radio news. I hope they waited for the incubation period to pass before they came here.
They said the doctor is from Fort Worth.
Has nothing to do with the “fag lobby”. I’m disappointed that you are spreading this crap. This is exactly how those barbarians in Africa are reacting to ebola and why its spreading.
The majority of HIV infections are with gay men, drug abusers or people who have sex with either of those categories. Or people who have contact with those people.
“Dont you think youve hijacked this thread long enough”
Yes. I thought that. This thread is about Ebola. It started with a comparison to aids that I responded to. But I agree...
Great song, Larry! Are you ready? He’s coming for you!
no he won’t.
Great song, Larry! Are you ready? Hes coming for you!
PING!
You’re amusing, at least. Without a brain to wash you accuse someone with a brain AND better medical links ... what a maroon, as Bugs would say.
Ever the little spreader of gallows humor, am I.
:)
I’m still trying to figure out WTH “ministration” is.
o.O
“We gonna pokerize ‘em!”
Cool artwork, BTW.
My husband and I met on a blind date in 1994, right after The Stand was televised. We both loved it...had a lot of fun talking about it at dinner that night.
If it was “so hard to catch”, doctors wouldn’t show up in HAZMAT suits.

It is one of the few movies I’d like to see remade.
First time around, they blew their perfect chance by not casting Martin Sheen as The Walking Dude.
He was born for that role.
[Molly Ringwald? Nope.]
TELL me about it. I don't know where that came from.
Yeah, I'd like to see it remade with a big budget. I could see Sheen in that role. But holy cow...if King let them do to "The Stand" what was done to the TV version of "Under The Dome"... *shudder*
