Airport staff tonight told of their fears of an Ebola outbreak after a passenger from Sierra Leone collapsed and died as she got off a plane at Gatwick.

Workers said they were terrified the virus could spread globally through the busy international hub from the West African country which is in the grip of the deadly epidemic.

The woman, said to be 72, became ill on the gangway after she left a Gambia Bird jet with 128 passengers on board. She died in hospital.

Well now, I wonder what this guy has to say about that?

"Ebola’s scary, and it’s understandable that with a deadly disease, people are concerned," says CDC director Tom Frieden, but for those who would have us turn victims away, "the plain truth is, we can stop Ebola. We know how to control it. We’re not going to hermetically seal the borders of the US. We’re reliant and interdependent with the world for travel, for trade, for the economy, for our families and communities."

Because there is no other plausible explanation for the death of a 72 year old West African woman. As a general word of wisdom, you probably should take Daily Mirror articles w a grain of salt.

Here it comes, and it will. Thank you Barry for pretty much destroying our border security at this time, perfect timing I must say. And the fact that he transports the invaders all over the US is especially heartening.

Let’s bring over 50 African heads of state, and their entourages, bodyguards, media, and assistants, for a big
conference in Washington.

Let’s let them fill up the hotels, visit restaurants,
visit tourist sights, and basically come into contact with
thousands of people.

Sounds great...

Screams of racism would occur if we stopped flight.

We need to fly them over to the US for their medical care/s

Would love to see Emory University’s census numbers for this week. If I had any procedure planned there, I would now be hospital shopping.

CDC Head is a POLITICAL OPERATIVE

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Frieden

He was Bloombergs SS Chief in the war on Tobacco and Sugary drinks, a democrat, and a marxist com-symp.

FRIEDEN WOULD RATHER RISK AN EBOLA PANDEMIC IN THE USA THAN PISS OFF HIS MARXIST MASTERS

In other words, we are willing to accept a few thousand deaths in the name of political correctness.
