I guess this short cruise is going to turn into an ordeal.
New idea for a sitcom...
O Malley will welcome them to Maryland, illegals too.
$$$ is no object, he can just raise our taxes again.
At least Belize is handling this the right way. Wish I could say the same for our government.
I believe that this is a lie.
A floating petrie dish of senior citizens. On a ship this size at least one passenger would normally be expected to die of ‘natural’ causes on a typical cruise. If it happens on this one...Katy bar the door! God Save the Republic!
I can imagine the rest of the passengers aren’t too happy. Good thing the pair isolated themselves or the other passengers might have killed them.
Looks like the headline is wrong. The article says the worker is symptom free.
If this is the same ship that I heard about on Fox this morning, the two people are a health worker who dealt with samples from the lying Liberian, and her husband.
From the report this morning, neither one was showing symptoms after 19 days from handling the samples. Hopefully they are fine.
Why does the title say it is a patient with ebola symptoms and the article says the patient does not have any symptoms?
I assume this ship of over 3,500 passengers is on it’s way back to Galveston. Having seen first hand how Norovirus goes through cruise ships, this makes me very nervous.
Why did these people even go on the cruise. Looks like they will likely die on the Cruise Liner as Belize syays no and how many others will succumb to the disease on a restricted vessel.
So... is she symptomatic or not?
Keep the ship out to sea for 50 days. Air drop food and medicines to the ship. Only then let the survivors ashore—in Washington DC.
But the leftists are telling me this is an “overblown” response to a nothing issue.
Well this is the “no class” cruise line after all.
There goes to cruise ship business. Our refusal to quarantine infected countries is going to take down industry after industry.
Meanwhile our government is worried about hurting african economies instead of protecting our own.
The best thing you can do for the african countries is quarantine them and quarantine communities within them until the threat is eliminated.
Like tornados and trailer parks. Cruise ships cause Ebola.
I don’t blame Belize. If only we had this level of resolve.
Micheal Crichton couldn’t have scripted this any better. Time for Dr. Frieden to resign.
