Frieden on TV now. He looks and sounds a lot less confident than he did several days ago. The Ebola team sounds a lot like the NTSB Go team that rushes to the scene of an airliner crash, except this team will be wearing NBC suits. Says 48 or so people are now on the watch list for Ebola, all healthcare workers. Says CDC is casting a wide net to find anyone who might have been exposed. Includes 76 more people to be monitored "actively."
Notes that it is "very anxiety-provoking" to have been maybe exposed to ebola. I'll bet.
"We may see more people become ill."
I think you hit on how ebola is spread.
Ebola is spread by PC
It’s for naught until they shut down travel from the affected countries.
Trying to save his job. If we don’t close the borders we’re all dead, period. Why treat what you don’t have to. This isn’t your mom and dads Ebola, it’s highly contagious. We’re freakin’ doomed because we’re dumb, weak, and cowardly ...
It found a horrible new vector outside the endemic regions of Africa.
Honestly. This brave, new idea comes... about 10 weeks after the CDC - themselves - FIRST brought Ebola to our continent. Great work, Bro.
Commissar Frieden is an Obama acolyte who is implementing Obama’s one world/no borders ideology. He has not and cannot explain how allowing direct and indirect commercial air service between West Africa and the US is enhancing the heath and security of the American people. Just another Democrat bureaucrat with dangerous politically correct delusions on full display and fully engaged.
I hope this isn’t the First Response Team that was sent to investigate Benghazi.... took those fellas a couple of months.
Government. Proving once again that they excel in killing people and in little else.
This politically correct psycho conducted a scorched earth policy against smokers in NYC.
Not that I smoke, it just shows how nazi like he can be about smoking while rolling out the welcome mat for people from prime Ebola nations like Liberia
They are assholes. The Army has NBC teams with protocols going back 40 years and the equipment to mobilize anywhere. 54E is the MOS. Decon and Quarantine are the name of the game with chemical wash stations and burn stations.
They’re going to spend a lot of money, make a lot of new rules, make a lot noise and not get sh*t done.

As opposed to the sit on their backsides and spout hooey team.
my tagline
Cart before the horse again, I see.
OK, Freepers, time for action.
Call your reps in DC and tell them the flights from West Africa through any hub HAVE TO STOP!
The place to fight this disease is at its source, not here.
The screening process at our airports is a joke and ineffective. 150 people a day are coming here from West Africathat is 4500 a month. Some will show a fever and yet may be carrying the virus.
Our healthcare system will shutdown if this continues.
We already have cases in Kansas, Nebraska, Massachusetts, Virginia, and Texas.
The first order of business of a government is to protect their citizens. And this government is failing to do so.
Make the calls.
The family you save may be your own.
Can you imagine the bills this bunch will leave behind for not imposing a travel ban?
What makes you think Obama thinks that's a bad thing?
