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...
Why are cops doing this work ?
Then it will be taken by a contractor and dumped in the Hudson River.
I thought New Yorkers were smarter than the rest of us Americans? Chucky Schumer implied as much when he said NYC would be able to handle Ebola than Dallas would. Not off to a good start I see.
So they have no training on disposal of any kind of bio hazard?
The police dept. obviously need a new office the Ebola Captain who would report to the state Ebola General who would coordinate with the Ebola Czar.
Problem $olved.
Sounds like they never watch the News either
The maor and the gov said it was extremely difficult to contract. So... What’s the problem?
They going to regret saying they were so much smarter than Dallas responders?...so soon?
This is likely how ebola will be spread and we won’t know about it for perhaps 6 weeks. Same thing in Dallas. The maintenance guy washed the ebola vomit off the sidewalk with a hose.
They are not even that stupid in Africa.

Led by the incompetent Mayor Bill de Blasio, the NYC government demonstrates at all levels its incompetence in handling a potential Ebola epidemic in the making. Either the NYPD cops don’t take the disease seriously or they are too infected with political correctness to follow simple handling protocols. None this potentially hazardous waste was handled properly and officers exposed themselves needlessly to contamination. As far as I can see, NYC is playing Russian roulette with Ebola. They may have gotten away with it so far, but after each time they dodge an Ebola contamination, the odds of getting a contamination increase.
Let me guess: They also aren’t bright enough to figure it out by themselves.
Reason #567 for a travel ban from Ebola-infected countries: WE’RE JUST NOT READY FOR IT!
