Do they lie?
....and we KNOW how much we can trust the WHO, right?
Nigeria bet ebola by closing its borders to people form ebola stricken countries and instituting a strict quarantine of all people exposed to the virus. But Obama’s sycophant at the CDC says it won’t work here.
Tomorrow, Obama will declare the U.S. “...free of Ebola.”
And how did they do it? With Border controls. Something our crummy Obama government won’t consider.
FUBO
Nigeria especially has some remote areas, who knows what goes on out there.
The man who died after vomiting on the plane was from Nigeria.
So, overall, I am inclined to believe the article but hold out to observe if there should be any developments.
I’m pretty certain Nigeria ‘defeated’ Ebola through CONTAINMENT.
So western nations are going to follow this example?
Nigeria did the most important but “unsophisticated” things right, and quickly (1) finding everyone who had contact with someone who had become ill from Ebola, (2) getting those contacted to quarantine themselves, (3) making regular at home checkups on everyone on the lists to see who developed symptoms related to an active Ebola infection. They did not wait for unknown contacts to self-identify, walking publicly into a clinic, after they became ill.
By identify as much as possible all contacts and getting additional contacts by them limited to zero or a minimum, until an active infection was ruled out, they limited the spread.
Has the CDC and the U.S. hospitals done the same? Do they have a “chain of contact” list for everyone the Ebola victims here came into contact with, and everyone those contacts have come into contact with, and are they being asked to quarantine themselves, and are they checking up on them; or are they waiting for those on a chain of contact list they have not made, to identify themselves by walking into a clinic for treatment.
Nigeria Declared ebola free after 6 weeks, and equals 42 days, and not 21 days we are told is the “all clear” line.
We should use the same standard of 42 days. Double it. If only for the sake of “better safe than sorry”.
Dearest Sirs or Madame,
With humble heart and profound gratitude, I may desire to extend my greatest joy to you and your family, kindest sirs. May God truly love your gentle soul as I send this letter or tremendous outpouring and hope.
As you know from the news papers from the British Broadcasting Centre, a heartless disease has been ravaging Africa. My great second cousin who had amassed tremendous wealth from diamond business in Sierra Leone is trying to escape to Nigeria which is now free of Ebola, God has truly blessed the land. All of his money, sum total of 45,000,000 $ US, have been placed in a secret trust fund and he seeks to secretely transfer 10,000,000$ to an American bank.
If you seek to cooperate, he is willing to transfer you 2,000,000$ promptly. But you must send your financial routing and accouny numbers before Wednesday.
With hopeful heart, kindly yours,
Robert Mufasa Jr., III.

Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Ebola is endemic. There is a wild-life reservoir in these countries. They can’t be called Ebola free.
