CDC Issues Ebola Checklist: 'Now is the time to prepare'
Washington Examiner ^ | September 15, 2014 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 09/15/2014 9:38:52 AM PDT by scouter

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, warning hospitals and doctors that “now is the time to prepare,” has issued a six-page Ebola “checklist” to help healthcare workers quickly determine if patients are infected.

While the CDC does not believe that there are new cases of Ebola in the United States, the assumption in the checklist is that it is only a matter of time before the virus hits home.

Bringing them back here to the US puts ALL of us at risk.

That's the point. Also known as depopulation.

Don’t worry, they already have the procedures to care for dangerous immigrants: they distribute them in small numbers to every community across the country.

“History repeating itself ... “

Except the Spanish Flu had a mortality rate of 28% IIRC. Ebola with treatment is running about 65% death rate. If you are turned away from the already full hospital it is 90%.

We’ve already had 3 cases show up.
Lacking any “walk-ins”, we deliberately imported them just to prove how well we can handle such a disease under ideal conditions.
Driving two of them thru Atlanta daytime traffic unescorted was bat**** crazy stupid.

BTW: for your scenario, escapees would find the threat quite acceptable. Two months of clean comfortable bedding, clothing & food plus relatively excellent medical care? Heck, they’d jump at the chance.

There is nothing more disconcerting than sitting in the stall doing your business and hearing someone leave the stall and walking directly OUT of the restroom without making a trip to the sink first...

Usually what I do is grab a dripping handful of runny feces and scamper up to them, and say, YOU FORGOT TO WASH UP. Then I smear feces on their heads.

I cannot seem to stay employed for more than a day.

I am more afraid of the sink areas in public restrooms than most. I won’t touch anything in there, not counters, taps, towel dispensers, etc.

I use sanitary wipes on my hands, and won’t even touch the door going in, or going out.

There should be a law that all public bathroom doors open outward. I hate having to grab a handle that I know is filthy to get out of the bathroom.

Being serious here. Where can I get a supply of prepper food at a decent cost. I’ve been following this epidemic for quite some time and it’s starting to look hairy.

Between this moron in the white house and the idiots he has chosen to run things, we are screwed.

Anybody have a few good suggestions?
