"The American government takes care of its citizens," Philips said. "Even the homeless man eats everyday. Not in Liberia. The poor care makes Ebola worse."

Anyone really believe there aren’t at least a couple Ebola carriers wandering around the NYC metro area right this very minute?

The word is out, INS is not even looking for visa overstays. Unfettered mass immigration of the worlds dregs. The Dept. of State has even set up visa mills in countries that send massive waves of illegals to our borders. Any third worlders that get a visa have won the citizenship lottery.

From the Miami Herald, Oct 19, 2014

Ebola fears spur travel bans in Latin America, Caribbean

“One of the most aggressive stances against the epidemic has been taken by Colombia. Last week, the South American nation began denying visas to anyone who has visited Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea, Nigeria or Senegal during the past four weeks.”

....

In Haiti, reports that the United Nations was seeking volunteers to fight Ebola in Africa, prompted three government ministries and the office of National Security to issue a statement banning Haitians from volunteering. The ban came after a request by Haiti’s health ministry to international agencies to suspend rotations of employees from Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Nigeria and any other countries facing an epidemic.

On the same day Colombia and St. Lucia issued bans, Haiti announced stepped-up screenings at its international airports. Health Minister Florence Guillaume said Saturday that officials were working closely with international partners to prepare for a problem should it arise.

Other countries that have announced travel bans include Antigua, St. Kitts and Nevis, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, Belize and Jamaica.”

these little islands in the Caribbean have more sense of responsibility than we do...

Saw a piece here yesterday about how Obola is fast-tracking a whole lot of Haitians to come here. I guess he feels that we need even more diseased and corruption-tolerant residents.

And if the rest of the south and central american nations follow suit, then maybe we will be spared an Ebola carrier coning in from that direction.

I saw where the US was expediting visas to those in Africa who wanted to fly here. Smart.

This is local to me.

To say it made me angry is an understatement. She left Liberia, then went to a local mall.

Her “father” is claiming that it was his right to bring her here, and we have no right to quarantine her. The local race hustlers are in full force.

The father’s employer has asked them to stay home.

Unfettered mass immigration of the worlds dregs.

Somehow, these 'dregs' are coming up with the $2000 or so USD required to get airfare here.

Maybe that needs to be looked at.

Either they aren't 'dregs' and have substantial incomes by West African standards, or someone is buying their plane tickets, somewhere.

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...

Quad-cities? That’s what Tri-Cities all over America aspire to when they grow up.

Ever wonder why there are no Bi-Cities?
