This tragedy was unnecessary and could have been prevented except for the idiocy of President Obola and his Administration. All commercial air traffic should have been halted. All people traveling from the Hot Zone need to be quarantined for 21 days. Period.
Yeh, I hear you. I certainly don’t understand why either, and I’d just feel a lot better, if the authorities would act with an abundance of caution, instead of assuring us that there’s no reason for concern - meanwhile people in these areas are dropping like flies.
They have already admitted that someone with symptoms who sneezes or coughs can spread it to you if you are close enough and not wearing protective gear.
Especially small cuts, abrasions, your eyes etc.
Did you read the book, The Hot Zone? One of these threads had a link where you could read it for no cost. It was a very interesting book, and made me have a healthy respect for the value of adequate personal protection in dealing with the disease.
I think the doctors and health care workers who have been working on this outbreak are very brave and self sacrificing. I honestly don’t know how they can do it day after day.
I agree.
They are dedicated to serving others. That’s what their profession is all about. I would imagine they are taking proper precautions. They do deserve our respect. Health care is a great profession at a number of levels.
ABC News this am said that the apartment where this man was staying in Dallas was quarantined yesterday & they had to bring in ARMED guards to keep the people inside the apartment, because they were going out onto the balcony.
Then there was a phone conversation with a person inside the apartment, and they claimed that the sheets that were
on the bed that man slept in were still there, I got the impression that others in the apartment were using the same bed.
I have a question:
What happens to the waste from this apartment going down the city sewer system????
2 flights between Brussels & Dallas-—both of them United.
Flight from Liberia to Brussels-—don’t know.
Yes, I do respect those dedicated ones.
