There are new fears of a possible Ebola outbreak in New York City after a woman who was being monitored for the deadly virus dropped dead on Tuesday afternoon.
FDNY activated the Special Operations and Hazmat units after the the woman, who had traveled to Guinea three weeks ago according to a source on the scene, died at Amy Professional African Hair Braidig in the Brownsville area of Brooklyn.
An eyewitness who saw the body said there was blood coming from her 'face, nose and mouth.'

I guess it could clear out several of bammmys’ voters.
Why the hell are we reading about this in a UK newspaper?

0bama ordered news blackout in the US
And if she did, and her blood is tainted with Ebola, it creates a problem for everyone she came in contact with.
This is exactly why the 21 day quarantine at home is a good idea. If she had "a sudden massive heart attack" or whatever at home, health care professionals would know what they're dealing with, and the public would not be impacted.
I do not understand what she was doing at a hair care salon, assuming this story is true.
I have it on good authority that there is no such thing as Ebola.
A burst Aorta will do that.... abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Because there are no American newspapers.
We *do* have Propaganda Fliers, but no newspapers.
Will you confirm my thesis that there is no such thing as Ebola?
I have written a scholarly treatise on the topic, reproduced below:
Ebola Does Not Exist
We have shown that Ebola does not exist. It is a psychosomatic presentation and is entirely imaginary.
Carry on.

Vitamin C? What quackery!
It’s dried chipmunk spleen! That’s the cure that’s being suppressed by Big Pharma!
Wonder how much the People are not being told and then one has clues. Most of the People, regrettably, trip over clues all the time and stumble on as if nothing happened.
A clue? Laz always has clues!
Ebola replicates in organs--liver and spleen, mainly--not in blood. Even when patients are severely symptomatic, it can be days before there is enough virus in the blood to detect with a blood test. I doubt a woman who is asymptomatic (who probably has never been exposed in any case) is going to give Ebola to anyone.
She tested negative, anyway.
The decent people probably wouldn't be. (as they haven't been) Mostly the parasites, heroin freaks, gangbangers and other assorted urban filth.
Here is a link for an interview with a doctor saying that Vitamin stores are wiped out by Ebola and other hemorrhagic fevers. There were no scientific references listed, but Dr. Levy’s book is listed at the end. I Googled “Vitamin C stores destroyed by Ebola Virus” and several things came up saying that happened, but I did not see a scientific reference on the first page.

I’m dubious.
A number of things happen in end stage scurvy that don’t happen in Ebola, teeth loosen, old fractures break again, old scars open.
The main killer in Ebola is the diarrhea and vomiting; bleeding is a factor in a minority of cases. Neither are features of scurvy.
The bleeding seems to be a result of disseminated intravascular coagulation. Micro-clots form throughout the body, using up fibrin, a clotting protein. Then there is no more fibrin, and small injuries bleed uncontrollably.
I found a mention of the Cecil Textbook of Medicine as being a source for the destruction of body stores of Vitamin C. Regarding “instant scurvy”, the breakdown of soft tissue like blood vessels is much more rapid than the damage to bone which causes teeth to become loose. Also Ebola is reported to break down platelets and causing failure of clotting. Lots of info at Google, but having a hard time finding specific medical/scientific sources.
