""The likelihood of this outbreak spreading beyond West Africa is very low," admitted Stephan Monroe, deputy director of the CDC's National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases."

“Unless the goal is to reduce the population”
100 million fewer Americans = less global warming, better air quality, reduced carbon emissions and world peace.
Perfect environmental final solution.
Why does everyone worry about ebola?
We have stuff here in the USA that is just as deadly, things like hantavirus, a hemorrhagic fever disease.
With that virus ... they should be dropping something else from a plane.
Once again life imitates art . . . Clancy’s Executive Orders comes to life!
Hanta virus can be survived, not as easily spread human to human.
Ebola is light years worse. This is the worst outbreak, all because it has spread from more remote regions to large cities.
IT IS SOMETHING EVERYONE SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT.
She’ll be comin ‘round the border when she comes.
This means they plan on releasing it into the wild at multiple points in the USA immediately, if not sooner.
And you are right. I used to chuckle at pictures of Japanese wearing surgical face masks while out in public. But it's a smart idea if this Ebola comes here. Also protective gloves. Too many people eat out at restaurants, many of which are fast-food outlets; now that may be something to avoid. Better to have stuff stored at home to ride out an epidemic should it occur. There will be run on prep gear and it will be quickly gone.
Really? How many active cases of hantavirus right now?
It’s the only virus I’ve ever read about that remains virulent even from a corpse.
Burning the corpses to anything other than complete ash isn’t always effective.
As long as it is not airborne...
+++++++
As I understand it, the way it is spread, at this time, is through bodily fluids but all it would take is some infected women coming here with the sexual appetite of Sandra Flute and then katie bar the doors.
You sound really worked up about this. You probably should put a hashtag on that.
"TIME FOR PLAN B."
Also keep in mind that with Ebola, the protocol has been to quarantine entire cities. No one in/out.
Watching Cavuto, he said the CDC is telling hospitals to watch for the signs of Ebola.
Sure, the likelihood of an outbreak is very low until it crosses the border. Then it's too late to close the barn door.
Ebola outbreak: Is it time to test experimental vaccines?

“This is clearly an outbreak across international borders and it has not been handled properly,” explains David Heymann, professor of infectious disease epidemiology at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), who was on-site at the first human Ebola outbreak in 1976.
He says the 24 known outbreaks of Ebola to date have shown that it should be easily controlled. “It’s not rocket science to control these outbreaks but instead basic epidemiology: infection control, hygiene practices, contact-tracing and safe burial practices,” says Heymann of the virus, which is transmitted through contact with bodily fluids. “Ebola is its own worst enemy, it’s too lethal and cannot sustain its own spread.”
But whilst it should be easily contained, this time something has gone wrong
