NY Post ^

Posted on 07/30/2014 8:56:42 PM PDT by TigerClaws

Amid fears of a global Ebola epidemic, the feds are keeping a close eye on passengers arriving at JFK and other international airports in the United States to quarantine anyone showing signs of the deadly virus.

And the city’s Health Department alerted doctors and other health providers to immediately report anyone they suspect might have the disease.

If a group wanted to hurt us with this, they could easily bring it into the country in a vial in a diplomatic satchel then release it in Times Square or in any gay club in San Fran. Then, all that would be needed would be a recliner and some popcorn.

Somewhere the accountants are already trying to work out how much extra to charge to sit in the “No Ebola” section.

USSR weaponized Zaire ebola due to its extreme lethality (near 100%) and mixed it with the extremely hardy and easily communicable hemoragic smallpox (near 100% lethality) and called it "Ebolapox". A drunk Muscovte scientist got infected with the draft version and made it to two labs and the bathroom. The virus killed everyone (13 people) it touched. Luckily it never made it out of the containment zone.

. This would have been the Soviets "Captain Trps" from The Stand book.

. Scared the commies so bad, only the draft sample remains. USAMRID got to look at it after the Reston event and scared the shit out of them. USAMRID didn't even want to bring back a dead, frozen sample! USAMRID said the biowarfare lab and storage is very remote, and the Ebolapox so lethal, it would burn out quicker than ebola-Zaire.

The really scary thing is that several thousand people travel between West Africa and Europe every day via air.

It is more than that.

We have groups of missionaries and volunteers returning from the area. People who stayed put during past outbreaks, and have been trained to recognize and avoid it.

They are fleeing. And they are coming in without restrictions.

Perhaps you had posted the link to more information about that “stonehenge” type thing some NWO types built (in Georgia, USA?).

I was looking at it the other night. Weird stuff. Either the rantings of a rich guy, or the ravings of a group of powerful evil people.

The other shoe has fallen:

“Ikeja – The Lagos State Government on Friday said two persons out of those who had contacts with Mr Patrick Sawyer, the dead Liberian Ebola victim had manifested symptoms of fever.”

I am simply shocked I tell you. Just shocked.

Now wait until a worker at Emory becomes ill.

My only question if it gets out, is how many sick/dead will accumulate before the cdc/emory cop to something having happened.

The commissioner, who said the two cases were under observation, however stressed that they did not test positive to the virus.

Interesting how their testing seems to lag behind symptoms, remember Brantley originally tested negative as well.
