Basically saying that there is little room in America’s hospitals for such level of care. Just can’t wait till every African with a visa decides they have the fool proof way of emigrating with their entire family and descendants of that family.

How in the hell did Mitchell Levy’s son become an Ashoka Mukpo? I agree with the poster above. He was named after a Star Wars character.

Dangerous, infected area. The guy is a photographer. He knows how dangerous it is. But that's OK, he's just there to document it. So, he stands here and zooms in and takes pictures of what's happening over there.

And he still gets sick.

Something tells me this is actually easier to catch then the authorities say.

Yep it’s airborne and the government is going to bring it in here. Now we know why they purchase all the rounds of ammo.

Gee...what military base in Nebraska is absolutely crucial to operations. I cannot for the life of me think why someone would send an ebola victim to a place close to it...

I guess the same way my psychiatrist cousin from a conservative family who now lives on an ashram. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Why don’t they relocate him to a more isolated location? Like Gitmo. Those guys have access to the best medical care available.

And they will get it. And their population reduction as per Agenda 21’s Turtle Island provisions.

Not like they hid it. Just the method for obtaining it.

People chose their lesser evils and their lesser evils refused to stop the madness or even raise the alarm.

Now we pay as a society for thinking that electing people with principle didn’t matter. Yup, it comes back to that. Democrats are and always have been nazis. Our job was to elect people willing to fight them. We failed. The lesser evils stood silently while the Dems in conjunction with their global partners intentionally spread ebola.

Now, they unleashed their plague, turned off all the safety valves and there is nothing but the hand of God that can stop it.

So yea. I share that foreboding. Except in my mind it’s a foregone conclusion. If anyone wants to argue that based on the facts in evidence, might as well. Need something to do while we wait.

University of Nebraska Medical Ctr, Omaha has a BSL-4 facility which has roughly half the Bio Safety Level 4 facility beds in the US.

Think of this, tho. The LIV’s are extremely paranoid and bathes in ignorance. May not turn out like they hope.
