2nd nurse with Ebola called CDC before boarding flight several times [CDC allowed her to fly]
CBS News ^ | 10/15/2014

Posted on 10/15/2014 5:30:15 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

In the case of Amber Vinson, the Dallas nurse who flew commercially as she was becoming ill with Ebola, one health official said "somebody dropped the ball."

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that Vinson called the agency several times before flying, saying that she had a fever with a temperature of 99.5 degrees. But because her fever wasn't 100.4 degrees or higher, she didn't officially fall into the group of "high risk" and was allowed to fly.

Officials in the U.S. have been trying to calm fears over the Ebola crisis, but time and again events have overtaken their assurances.

99 is within the range of normal, but partly depends on your own normal level. Also is often not classified as “fever” by doctors.

But, given her history - being with ol’ Duncan - I might raise the brows if she shows a slight fever.

Officials in the U.S. have been trying to calm fears over the Ebola crisis, but time and again events have overtaken their assurances.

They're doing a terrible job, aren't they?

My view is this: Ebola cannot spiral out of control quite fast enough to really cause the overthrow of American society the way Obama would like. Therefore, he will intentionally handle the situation in an explicitly incorrect manner, causing panic, anger, and confusion. He’s pushing for a revolt, either from the military, from congress, or armed mobs. He will declare martial law in 2014. The Republicans elected in November will not be seated.

The disease itself will not necessarily have a devastating effect – but the disease will allow Obama to end America as a world power.

NOTE: Neither martial law or civil war have to result in a viable dictatorship and the declaration of Muslim supremacy in the United States – that does not have to be Obama’s winning strategy. He can lose. He can die. I don’t think he cares. All he needs to do is cause a complete breakdown. Civil War will be the breakdown. The winner of the war is inconsequential – America will never be capable of propping up the West again, and the Caliphate will become firmly established in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe (Spain).

I think this will happen very quickly.

“...somebody dropped the ball.”

A lot of that ball dropping going on lately. Passing the buck is real popular, too.

At what point will officials ever be held accountable?

Thomas Frieden is the Joe Biden of the Centers for Disease Confusion. Here's an excerpt from CDC: You Can Give—But Can’t Get—Ebola on a Bus:

"President Barack Obama last week addressing Ebola-stricken countries in West Africa,... told residents they 'cannot get [Ebola] through casual contact like sitting next to someone on a bus.'

" 'Yes, CDC vetted the message, and, yes, we believe it’s accurate,' [CDC Director Thomas] Frieden responded.

" 'I think there are two different parts of that equation,' he continued. 'The first is, if you’re a member of the traveling public and are healthy, should you be worried that you might have gotten it by sitting next to someone? And the answer is no.'

" 'Second, if you are sick and you may have Ebola, should you get on a bus? And the answer to that is also no. You might become ill, you might have a problem that exposes someone around you,' he said."

Because just like the CDC, she’s an incompetent idiot.
