NATIONAL PHYSICIAN ORGANIZATION DIRECTOR: 'RESTRICTED ENTRY' NECESSARY TO STOP SPREAD OF EBOLA
Breitbart ^ | Oct. 4, 2014 | by DR. SUSAN BERRY

Posted on 10/04/2014 2:08:15 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

The executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons states that restricted entry to the United States will be necessary to stop the spread of the deadly Ebola virus.

“The potential for devastating loss of life is real,” wrote Dr. Jane M. Orient on the website of AAPS. “The disease must be stopped before there are millions of persons exposed instead of 100.”

Orient said that restricting entry to the United States means that travelers from areas affected by Ebola must be “carefully screened and quarantined when indicated.”

Additionally, she warned that to contain the spread of Ebola, the United States must observe a high degree of suspicion, including a “travel and exposure history” for patients with fever and other symptoms, precautionary isolation, and careful contact tracing so that at-risk individuals are “identified, notified, monitored, and isolated as needed.”

Orient said that hospital personnel must all be trained with adequate supplies of protective gear and have a high degree of alertness for signs of the deadly disease.

“We need hard-headed realism, not complacent reassurance,” Orient wrote.

“President Obama said: ‘It will require an air bridge to get health workers and medical supplies to areas that are affected,’” she noted. “Meanwhile, the virus has used the air bridge of a commercial flight to reach Dallas. So far, only the index patient is ill, but 100 contacts are being observed.”

Orient questioned how so many experts can say that the chance of a widespread outbreak is “vanishingly small” due to our “highly sophisticated public health system,” when the U.S. has already experienced a number of breaches in our stronghold, first and foremost the fact that the hospital treating the symptomatic patient from Liberia failed to follow federal guidelines. Rather than being placed in isolation, the patient was sent home...

The flip side of Obama’s need for having open borders so he can grant amnesty to 30-million Democrat voters after the mid-term elections is that a full-scale epidemic could be raging by then, in which case amnesty would reveal him to be the illegal-alien enemy foreign agent that he is.

It is sad to say but this is the way for Obama to get back at the Neo-Colonialism that shaped his world view through his so called Daddy. Time to kill off the west through the spread of a bat virus that has muted into a virus that will kill millions. Thanks so much Odumbo. You really are a donkey’s backside.

Obola won’t do anything in the interests of this country. I flew home through Charlotte yesterday, a busy, crowded, international airport. Every single group or knot of people were talking about one thing..Ebola..

This is a gauntlet thrown down before Tom Frieden, the smirking geek running the CDC.

Are they going to weigh in on all the serious diseases coming into America from Central America and Mexico, “courtesy” of the illegal aliens?

Budget smudge-it. From what I can tell, the thrill for this creep lies in the potential to wield real power.

So Obama doesn't help his half-brother in Kenya, and spends enough money on vacations to probably provide food for multiple villages for a prolonged period, but wants Americans and the US military to be put at risk to help Africa.

It doesn’t seem to me that stopping the spread is the goal of this government at all.

If anyone thinks that it is too cynical to think that the government will do nothing in their power to help, please consider AIDS in the early 1980s. When AIDS was a completely unknown gay disease spreading quickly through the San Fransisco bathouses, health authorities prudently wanted to shut down the bathouses, but gay activists fought back, and politicians like Diane Finestien kept the bathouses open. Thus AIDS was the first disease to win civil rights.

Does anyone think that Ebola, coming from a black country, will not have civil rights?

I think what you posted is true.

"This means that Obama could, in the time it takes to write out a few paragraphs, stop the flow of people into American communities who have been exposed to Ebola in West Africa."

What about his pen and phone?

He is a menace playing with people's lives.

Who said a Doctorate was good for nothing?

Even a cheese eating mouse could lift a moist paw and tell which way the wind was blowing on this one.

DUH!

One would think, but guess who would be taking every precaution they denied the general public?
