This government circus would be kind of funny ... if people weren't dying and if it wasn't happening here.
Hows that? CDC says can't catch it airborne only by direct contact with bodily fluid. Do they think she french-kissed all the passengers?
"Jodie Fleischer @jodiewsb 9m9 minutes ago
Frontier plane that carried Ebola patient Monday flew 5x yesterday before her diagnosis- in & out of Atlanta Cleveland Ft Lauderdale #wsbtv"
As long as she kept her bodily fluids to herself, there should be nothing to worry about. /sarc
Amber Joy Vinson must be some kind of idiot! Apparently completely unconcerned about her fellow citizens, neighbors and family.
How about those Homeland Security folks...when will we start hearing something about them not wanting to get close to passengers.
Just wait when Ebola ‘mates’ with the common flu and becomes airborne if it hasn’t already happened.
the genie is out of the bottle woe be us
@abbydphillip: 2nd Ebola patient Amber Joy Vinson did NOT step foot on the Kent State campus in Ohio. She is a graduate. Also 3 family members work there.
I’m with you on that. I look at the picture of the young nurse and see someone who made the effort to get educated, and career in a field that helps people for a living. Someone who contributes to the civil society. Local reports (I’m in DFW) talk about her family being religious and generous...
...and then I hear relatives of Mr. Duncan suggesting that there was different treatment provided for him; insinuating that skin color was a deciding factor in treatment and ultimately his death. Then I get mad. Real mad.
@DebbieGoffa: Kent State: 2nd #Ebola patient is related to 3 employees. Patient’s visit to Ohio area prompts school to ask the 3 to stay away for 21 days
Someone said on twitter that she knows for a fact that this woman flew WITH a fever and still flew back to Dallas..I don’t know if that is true but if it is its a game changer for sure
She visited Akron, OH. Have a wedding there early Nov. NOT going. In about three weeks all h3ll will break loose between the flight and those she visited. The midwest needs to brace itself. Not airborne my butt.
Gretchen Carlson/Fox just reported nurse was carrying a low grade fever on the flight.
When a person becomes infected with Ebola virus, it begins to multiply within the body. After four to six days, on average, Ebola symptoms can begin. The period between infection with the virus and the start of symptoms is called the incubation period. For Ebola, this can be as short as 2 days or as long as 21 days.
Common Ebola Symptoms
Symptoms of Ebola often appear suddenly.
Common ones can include:
Fever
Sore throat
Weakness
Severe headache
Joint and muscle aches
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Dehydration
Dry, hacking cough
Stomach pain.
A rash, red eyes, hiccups, and internal and external bleeding may be seen in some people. When the rash develops on dark skin, it is often not recognized until the rash begins to peel. In pregnant women, abortion (miscarriage) and heavy vaginal bleeding are common Ebola symptoms. Death usually occurs during the second week of symptoms and is usually from massive blood loss
Freden just stated that since the nurse was working in the Dallas hospital, she should have not been allowed to fly. Can you believe that? Idiot!!! That begs the question: Why should people living in Liberia, etc. be allowed to fly here?
This spread of Ebola via air travel is prophetically similar to the end of the movie “Rise of the Planet of the Apes”. A deadly hemorrhagic fever spread throughout the world until the human race was wiped out. The graphic depiction of its spread along airline routes was one of the most simple but chilling cinematic devices that I have ever seen.
