Pray tell, and what hospital might that be where you work ?

Fabulous place. My son’s life was saved there. I’m forever grateful. Still don’t like the city where it’s located. Much less the state!

I wonder if Hallmark is designing a new ‘get-well’ card for Ebola, but are struggling with the message.
How do you tactfully say: “Sorry to hear of your infection by the Ebola virus. Extending our fervent wishes for your survival, or for as little suffering as possible.”?

It seems to me the incidences of people from African Ebola Land countries ending up in various non-African countries with suspicious symptoms is starting to ‘pick up steam’ ...

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!

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...

Obola has arrived. It will be mass distributed through Obamacare. You don’t think certain ‘doctors’ are all-in loyal to the regime?

I doubt they have it. Probably another false alarm. The media and the government want us terrified of this minor disease, which has only killed a little more than 1000-2000 people in nearly 40 years.

Would be difficult for it not too...as said...too many fell through the cracks....the Dr.s there were in panic because they saw that it was out of control....I believe it was...and may continue to be so.

One nation has a shoot to kill if people cross the border. So that in itself speaks volumes.

"I don’t have a clue about the origin of the California patient."

The article doesn't say a word about where this patient was from or had been. I wonder why?

The question to ask is:

Did this patient sit in the waiting room for an hour? How many other patients, family members, and medical personnel had contact with this patient?

Or did the patient come in by ambulance? If this is the case, was the ambulance set up with a contagion chamber? Or is the driver and attendants now Ebola carriers?
