Israel National News ^

Posted on 10/05/2014 10:51:11 AM PDT by TigerClaws

Thomas A. Duncan, who became ill with Ebola after arriving from West Africa in Dallas two weeks ago, succumbed to the virus today (Sunday), reports Reuters. Duncan was fighting for his life at a Dallas hospital on today after his condition worsened to critical, according to the director of the US Centers for Disease Control.

The Dallas hospital that admitted him did not recognize the deadly disease at first and sent him home, only for him to return two days later by ambulance.

Just anecdotes. There’s no evidence significant numbers of conservatives ‘stayed home’ rather than vote for Romney.

And there is evidence that when many Conservatives showed up to vote on Election Day they were told that they had already voted "early" and were not allowed to vote "again" except provisionally.

Doesn't anyone else remember this?

If this was widespread enough, it accounts for many of these Conservatives who "didn't vote".

After all, all we have to show that Conservatives "didn't vote" is a comparison between 2008 and 2012 voter totals showing that there were less votes for Romney than for McCain.

Think about it. One vote stolen from a Conservative voter through early voting fraud is a TWO vote difference in the final tally for the Democrat -- one less for the Republican, one more for the Democrat.

THIS is the evidence of the phantom "stay at home Conservative voter".

A co-worker told me years ago, about an uncle in Asia, that needed to have some cardiac work done. He needed to come up with $50,000,which he didn’t have ,but he could get enough money for a plane ticket to Houston,where they have a world class cardiac center.

That's odd since cardiac procedures in Asia rarely cost more than $15,000, even now. Often under $5,000.

Doesn’t seem like anyone is panicking and for sure in the northern suburbs NO ONE is.

Some denial there. I'm one of those who has been arguing (correctly) that this strain of Ebola ISN'T airborne, and ISN'T that easy to catch without direct contact with body fluids but even I would stay out of the DFW area, If I could, for now.

I read that article earlier today.

Hope that it is just the result of a very weakened immune system.

I don’t know the particulars.
All I know is what the co-worker had told me, was uncle’s goal was to get to the USA for the procedure and not pay for the surgery.

The political elite of Liberia seem to have held typical American surnames (reflecting their ancestors' history as freed slaves from the US).

For example, the President of Liberia from 1920 to 1930 was Charles D. B. King. In the Presidential election of 1927 he received 234,000 votes although there were only 15,000 registered voters in Liberia at the time.

The next President was Edwin Barclay (1930-1944), followed by William Tubman (1944-1971) and then William R. Tolbert, Jr., (1971-1980), who was killed in a coup in 1980.

Ebola survivors typically have lingering medical problems for the rest of their lives.

Since Romney got a million more votes than McCain, that question is answered.

Fake voters voting early thus depriving the real voter? Anything beyond a few scattered instances would be BIG news. Anyone working on it?

Oh really? I didn’t know that but I’m not surprised given the severity of the disease.

All I know is this guy that is supposed to be an expert on Ebola was talking extensively about it on Hannity yesterday. He said that the real Ebola outbreaks they have had in the past they send a bunch of health professionals but basdically they just put a ring around the village and nobody goes in or out til it burns out. He said that if this thing in Liberia was the real Ebola and had spread to the extent it is now it would kill every living person on the planet. I urge everyone to go listen to the Friday Hannity radio show at about the 25 minute marker.

Why isn’t the news media reporting this?

Also, Fox News just said there’s another one hospitalized in Dover, Delaware.

You just have to wonder what else they’re not telling us. Also, what was with the minor thing for the United passenger yesterday.......if minor why give the other passengers ebola fact sheets and what symptoms to look for? I bet he just disappears!

I don’t know if anyone is working on it. I’m just going by my own memory. IMHO, the news media killed this story and it hasn’t been revived since.

Two in Miami too. The standard wording now is "Boy is highly unlikely to have Ebola, but was admitted in an abundance of caution. He is visiting from West Africa and is displaying symptoms".

Since it’s a November 8, 2012, story, the were several million votes yet to be counted. The actual totals

http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php

may have ‘found’ the missing voters.

The lag between voting day and the final count has led many over-anxious commentators to err.

Still worth looking into further.

"Ebola Virus US 2014: Homeless Man With Possible Ebola Found" http://www.ibtimes.com/ebola-virus-us-2014-homeless-man-possible-ebola-found-1699572 Texas authorities found a homeless man at risk of Ebola, NBC News reported Sunday. He reportedly came into contact with Thomas Eric Duncan, the first person in America to be diagnosed with the virus. Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said the person, who was preliminarily identified as Michael Lively, was a “low-risk individual.” “We are working to locate the individual and get him to a comfortable, compassionate place where we can monitor him and care for his every need for the full incubation period,” Jenkins said in an emailed statement before Lively was located. “I want to emphasize that he is a low risk individual and we are doing this out of precautionary measures.” A reporter for KTVT-TV, Dallas, tweeted a picture of Lively, the person who reportedly came into contact with Duncan. He said officials described him as a “panhandler.”

The outbreaks burn out, but not everyone with Ebola dies in the quarantined or restricted area.

Lamivudine and favipiravir are structural analogs. Japan has offered favipiravir to the WHO. Actually did so back in AUGUST.

http://www.thehindu.com/news/international/world/japan-ready-to-offer-drug-for-ebola-treatment/article6350108.ece

One is forced to wonder why neither of them seem to have been used in any official manner.
