As it was with Benghazi, the Obama Administration’s first thought about Ebola is how it would affect an upcoming election. It is primarily a political crisis to the narcissist-in-Chief.
And THAT is why we are in this mess. Hope you told him what for. The nerve of stupid people. I guess if you suddenly drop off the radar, we'll know what happened. Make sure you call the local news station with your story before the EMTs knock on your door.
Look at the polls to weigh how the crisis would affect the next election
2) Go on TV and lie.
You nailed that.
Why not? Wounded were brought into the White House during the Civil War.
Hope you’re OK! Sorry you have had some health issues.
Sounds just like OBASTARD CARE.
“Hospitals and personnel can’t give what they don’t have.”
They can’t say that because it contradicts the official narrative of the USSA gubmit.
My mother, who is an RN in a local hospital says the day an ebola pt is admitted is the day she QUITS!
The hospitals are NOT equipped to handle them and she will NOT expose herself and her family to this dreaded disease that Obama brought to America.
Why does this feel like a set up? What democrat operative gave this story idea to an editor somewhere? And for what purpose?
They must lose a ton of money on each Ebola patient they treat. Who is paying Thomas Duncan’s bill?
Read "The Hot Zone".
In a previous outbreak of Ebola in Africa, while attempting to treat infected patients the hospitals themselves became sources of infection.
Instead of stemming the spread of the virus they were spreading it.
They cant say that because it contradicts the official narrative of the USSA gubmit.
You summed it up perfectly.
Reuters - the last-gasp of Britain’s remnant fascist cult to keep alive Hitler’s Ministry of Propaganda.
He was not only intubated, but given dialysis treatment as his kidneys failed. Having to perform these invasive interventions placed his caregivers at even greater risk.
What's more, at the point these procedures were performed, it was probably already clear to doctors treating Duncan that his case was hopeless.
Yet doctors and hospital administrators likely believed they MUST perform the interventions -- or be accused of racism.
Just made an appointment this morning and this is what my confirmation now has on the bottom.
We at ********* take the real, but low, risk of Ebola transmission very seriously. Please answer the following questions for us immediately:
Have you been to Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria, or Sierra Leone?
Have you been near persons or remains of persons with Ebola or health
care workers caring for an Ebola patient?
And are you having symptoms - fever 100.4 and any of the following: headache, muscle aches, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, bleeding? If you answered yes to any of these questions, please call or message us so we may help you.
They would probably freak if I actually informed them I do have some of the symptoms, but then again I often have them.
I have been asked at my doctors and when I went for my sleep study if I had been out of the country or in contact. The symptoms list is new.
The new appointment is hopefully just about my anemia but who knows what will be discovered this time.
Trying hard to stay out of the hospital.
The EXEMPT Princes:
"As long as there are enough beds and vaccines for the EXEMPT, WHO CARES."
Maybe these hospitals should set up bio-quarantine facilities like they have at Emory, Nebraska, etc.
Oh, wait, they’re being taxed and regulated out the ass like the rest of us! They can’t afford it.
Never mind . . .
... but that has always been the situation.
Although I don't necessarily agree with every action listed below, I do believe that decisive action and the willingness to take risks is the only way leadership ever succeeds:
The South talked about secession and fired on Ft Sumter -- Lincoln called up an army and invaded his own country. His goal was to force states to recognize the supremacy of the federal government.
Woodrow Wilson won re-election promising to keep us out of WWI. The Luisitania was sunk -- we were in Europe darn quick: army, marines, airplanes, navy. The Germans surrendered within the year.
Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. All talk of American Isolationism stopped immediately. We fought our way across the Pacific -- as well as Africa, Italy, France and Germany. In the end, we dropped two atomic bombs. Don't mess with Uncle Sam.
President Kennedy said we would go to the moon. In less than 10 years, we were standing on it.
Now, since Apollo ended, how has our Space Program been doing?
When was the last time we actually won a war?
Do we really have a clearly defined approach to handling Ebola, or are we treating it as a political problem to be managed within the confines of today's news cycle?
Something changed in America. We used to take the bull by the horns and DEAL with the situation. Today, the government is all about their pensions. They take no interest in anything else.
We use to elect people that had accomplished something, even for local office. Most politicians had military experience, work and or business experience and that was considered a requirement by the voters. Now many politicians have never been anything but politicians.
It seems to me in the past we chose to be lead by people who wanted the best for this country and the citizens. Not sure how we choose people now, but what we end up with is people who do not care about anything but themselves. Most are only willing to stand up and actually do something if the polls of their voters require them to act. By the time the polls are done, it is too little too late.
