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.

Schools want their perfect attendance so they can grab as much money as possible so send your sick kid to school to infect the whole building. Then there are all the illegal kids with their entire extended families coming in from who knows where. Then there's the missionaries coming back and forth and soon to be military. Then there are all the Toms, Dicks and Achmeds arriving every hour on the hour at our airports. Face it, every disease known to mankind is already here. Either it hasn't infected enough to be newsworthy or it hasn't been reported to the public. Question - How long does the ebola virus stay alive on dead bodies?
Since there are probably a lot of preppers following this thread, I submit: http://www.woot.com/
Today Woot is selling a PersonalStraw. You can buy up to 5 for that price and shipping is $5 no matter how many you buy.
My response to their yada yada explanation is I - don't - think - so.
Cynic mode engaged.
Problem: America is a tough nut to crack. If they try to institute martial law, grab guns it will start CW2 and give American Patriots the moral upper hand for defending themselves. Global warming, lying about guns, taking over education, indoctrination, seeding Islamic terrorists all over, creating violent drug cartels, etc has not worked to disarm and pacify the population
Solution: Create a perceived crisis that will allow them the ability to institute martial law, bring in international support, allow them to fire on US citizens, confiscate guns, contain, lock away groups, etc.
Possible method: Create a manufactured medical crisis that allows the moral use of deadly force and tyrannical methods against Americans.
Its only a coincidence Ebola is the focus groups scariest disease -isnt it?
Cynic mode disengaged.
It could never happen here /s
[ 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. ]
Maybe you should work as a chimp trainer, they seem to speak “thrown poo” as well...
:P
At our school, the boys were squirting the liquid soap all over the restrooms so guess what the brilliant minds in charge did?
You get one guess.
Yep, they took out all the soap. The boys never washed their hands for months and months.
Please ping if you find and post the Miami link; thanks.
“I work in the restaurant Industry and it amazes me the sick customers and employees I see all the time.”
Reason 174 that I almost never eat out any more.
I dont know the numbers on women, but Id say close to 50% of men dont even wash their hands before exiting a restroom.
And when those that do wash their hands grab the door handle or door knob with their bare hands, it was a waste of time.
I always open the door with a paper towel or Kleenex.
Hysteria \Hys*te"ri*a\, n. [NL.: cf. F. hyst['e]rie. See Hysteric.] (Med.) A nervous affection, occurring almost exclusively in women, in which the emotional and reflex excitability is exaggerated, and the will power correspondingly diminished, so that the patient loses control over the emotions, becomes the victim of imaginary sensations, and often falls into paroxism or fits. [1913 Webster] Note: The chief symptoms are convulsive, tossing movements of the limbs and head, uncontrollable crying and laughing, and a choking sensation as if a ball were lodged in the throat. The affection presents the most varied symptoms, often simulating those of the gravest diseases, but generally curable by mental treatment alone. Hysteric
The government buying up hazmat suits is the exact same stunt they pulled causing the ammo shortage and the dehydrated foods to be on back order. There has also been shortages of basic prescriptions and saline solution has been short for like a year now. It's not hard to see what's really going on with this evil administration.
[ What gets me is turning on the faucet with your dirty hands, washing your hands and then turning off the dirty faucet with your washed hands defeating the whole purpose. ]
I love the motion activated sinks and soaps dispenser and use the paper towel to open te door, thankfull there is a trash bin outside nearby.
I am considering getting a home use kitchebn and restroom motiona activated faucet....
When the prices drop enough that is...

Instead of just beating their little butts for wasting soap and solving the problem for a lifetime they created a myriad fo numerous other problems.... yuck....
Another article from the same source:
“There are about 200,000 Africans from countries hosting the deadly Ebola virus who hold temporary visas to visit the United States, greatly raising the stakes it could spread to America, according to a group following the immigration issue.
Based on State Department nonimmigrant visa issuance statistics, I estimate that there are about 5,000 people in Guinea, 5,000 people in Sierra Leone, and 3,500 people in Liberia who possess visas to come to the United States today, said Jessica M. Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.
Add to that more than 195,000 Nigerians with visas to visit, or who could already be here, she said of the country that has seen temporary U.S. visas skyrocket.
The government has promised that the U.S. is safe, but thats not good enough for Vaughan. At this time, with an extremely serious public health threat and more than 200,000 people who potentially could enter and spread it, either knowingly or unknowingly, the State Department and Department of Homeland Security should disclose to the public what they are doing to prevent travelers infected with Ebola from entering the country,”
The most economical is stocking up on the regular grocery store canned goods and packaged foods that your family already eats. Sure, it takes up more storage space than dehydrated foods but it is waaay cheaper and you know your family will eat it.
A few words of caution about the dehydrated food. Your family may hate it. The amount it reconstitues to has been proven in some case not to be accurate. The real world needed daily calories vs. their labled serving size is way off. Don’t forget it requires water to prepare whereas say a grocery store can of green beans is ready to eat, requires no extra precious water and the liquid in the can gives you that much more drinkable water. Not saying you shouldn’t buy dehydrated foods but just be aware.
You're more forgiving than I am. The ick germs is the #1, #2, #3, #4... reasons I almost never eat out. The cost vs. homemade is way down the list as is the time wasted getting dressed, driving, waiting around for the order and food to come and finally driving home. No thanks. I'd rather cook and eat at home where I know what is in my food and the germs are mine. Not to mention I can plop down on the couch, get comfortable and watch tv in my pjs and not have to listen to some stranger's kid screaming and crawling under my feet.
