When asked on Sunday if the United States should suspend flights to and from affected countries or impose a visa ban on travelers from those countries, Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said "absolutely not." "When you start closing off countries like that, there is a real danger of making things worse," Fauci said on "Fox News Sunday." "You can cause unrest in the country," he said. "It’s conceivable that governments could fall if you just isolate them completely."

Fauci is a political animal. Always has been. He wants to hang on to the power he has at NIH.

You can cause unrest in the country,” he said.

I guess hes talking about a different kind of unrest than the kind caused by providing weapons to groups like ISIS.

Was Duncan being given the red pill or the blue pill? Would Ezekial approve of $millions$ being spent on his care?

There’s a brand new dufus on the scene. This one from the Allergies and Infectious Diseases. Infectious Disease Dufus #2 backing up CDC Dufus #1. Now the meme is definitely cast in stone. No closing the borders. No shutting down travel.

The story to which you linked may be bogus. Look at the comments on your linked story.

The stability of foreign countries is not his mandate. The health of Americans in Ame Rica is. Cruz should remind him of that because I am damn sure nobody else will.

Fauci and Koop brought us AIDS.

There was a brief interval when the first cases, known in the gay community, could have been contained, and some sex clubs closed.

These two morons just watched while AIDS became the pandemic it still is.

Completely cowardly, incompetent political hack-doctors.

Now Fauci is here again, lying, being a coward, backing away from his duties as a physician.

Worthless POS.

Probably a delay due to “sneaking” the body into a secret laboratory (Frankenstein Style) in ___________to be dissected into tiny little pieces so all can share in the billion dollar grant the government will hand out.

What a bunch of idiots. What makes them think there won't be any unrest OVER HERE if they keep letting flights/people in from the affected areas? ARE THEY INSANE???? (no, just incompetent and implementing Agenda 21).

” What makes them think there won’t be any unrest OVER HERE


If there is no unrest here by now there probably won’t be.

People just bang away on their keys and complain.

“No closing the borders. No shutting down travel”

I find it hard to believe that sooner or later the plane crews and border people won’t say, en mas, to hell with the job.

Wow, he indirectly admits that he’s more concerned about foreign countries than he is about America or the American people...

A sane government would put the safety of its people first and then do what it could to help others.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

He was dead earlier in a news release. Maybe he is a zombie?
