Gut tells me this is going to play out poorly for us Obola subjects.
Wondering if fellow FReepers, loved ones and family have got appropriate preps in order?
Judging by developing news, increasing public awareness will result in higher demand / diminishing availability on essential items, ie: N95 / 100 masks, Nitrile gloves, goggles, Tyvek coveralls, cases of water, hand sanitizer, bleach, etc.
As of yesterday a Los Angeles county suburb orange box home center still had a few packages of masks, goggles, gloves and Tyvek coveralls, after I made my personal purchase.
BTW: when cashier asked if I was a painter, I told her the supplies were for Ebola. Her response was: Who’s that?
Just-in-time supply chains are short and MSM is stirring the pot: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/08/us-ebola-gear_n_5945544.html
Also, FYI and for prep’s - there’s an article from the NIH that indicates Melatonin may be effective in treating Ebola:
Ebola virus disease: Potential use of melatonin as a treatment - Sep 27, 2014
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25262626
Sure hope this burns out quickly and is much ado about nothing...
“...there’s an article from the NIH that indicates Melatonin may be effective in treating Ebola...”
A quick ‘net search didn’t uncover the dosage used. Do you know? Thanks.
Ignorance is going to be our worst enemy in this fight. It has been already. People are used to regular diseases, not diseases like this one. Most people are still not aware of the problem.
