Liberian prostitute kills eight soldiers via Ebola transmission
Times Live ^ | 08 Oktober, 2014

Posted on 10/08/2014 9:50:01 AM PDT by GonzoII

According to the Liberian Observer, a sex worker visited soldier Floson Louise at his army barracks in Liberia.

“When she slept at the EBK (barracks), it was thereafter the soldiers contracted the disease, and could not survive despite “intensive treatment” at the various Ebola Treatment Units in Monrovia,” a source told the Observer.

The sex worker was suffering from Ebola and passed the deadly disease to the soldier who unknowingly spread it to seven other soldiers. The Observer further reports that the army barracks are being decongested to ease the spread of the disease.

Soldiers may be horny, but I doubt that they are stupid enough to have sex with a Liberian prostitute.

Probably a good move.

I am helping a Pastor at a small church plant in SE Calgary. He and his wife and kids are from Liberia and apparently, much of the current huge AIDS problem there is from all the African ‘peacekeepers’ who brought their AIDS with them. Apparently, AIDS is also rampant in Liberia, in addition to Ebola.

It’s crippling the continent by wiping out the educated classes.

Thanks, I know. My mind wasn’t correctly following the initial spread based on the spreader’s occupation.

It’ll kill them as easily as any of us. This isn’t a behavior induced disease, but it may get Obola to act if it does hit them hard...

That sounds like you are off on some entirely different topic.

Not at all, if you follow your original statement, I merely added the observation that of those million a month, most of them are the people that essentially can get shit done in Africa, which is a pretty important consideration in light of the continents troubles...

Now you are cussing?

I have no idea what you are talking about, why don’t you publish some facts, or some numbers or something, if you want to talk about whatever your topic is?

This is clearly sexist. How dare the insensitive news source blame a dear little sex worker just doing her job.

Lets add 30000 American bodies to breed this dieasese, and keep the airtrafic flowing just incase it wants to hop over to our Contenent. Thanks Obama I’m sure we are all feeling so much safer now.

Wait, hold on. If it is transferable by semen into the soft tissues, then why can’t it be a behaviorable disease as well?

Someone was "playing for both teams."

Someone may simply have been unsanitary in a more casual sense.
