Did I say there was an Ebola epidemic in the US?

Ever?

Get real, step back from the crack pipe and let it cool for a while.

but your liberal media lied and their massive media coverage said precisely that. cnn, cbs et all ,the media had people terrorized and i guess still has you terrorized and fooled.

You didn't go to the links, did you.

Let's get something straight. It isn't MY liberal media, I don't own so much as a single share of stock in any of it.

They Never said there was an Ebola Epidemic Here in the US, but guess what? We had an undefinable increase in cases here and went from zero ever to eight in one year. Two died, six survived. Two more than ever had the disease here actually caught it here.

Now, I'll be the first to admit that isn't very many people. It's like having sex once. But if that once is the first time, it is a landmark.

The outbreak in West Africa continues, there are people with the disease in Mosul, and in the UK, and the evac plane (one of them) has been to Georgia in the past few days, why, I can't say--and the government is not saying, either.

If you think this is some sort of bullshit deal from the media, I suggest you go help out at the isolation clinics in West Africa.

as for how many Americans will die of Ebola in 2015? 0 ,zero

Stupid to predict that, especially considering there are a bunch of Americans in Africa now helping stop the epidemic, including US troops.

Believe what you want, and yes, Ebola was used to hide other crap the government was up to--they had to find something, but it is real, deadly, and thankfully seldom on these shores.

Now, genius, if it was here, do you think you'd hear about it? Like the media have been forthcoming about EV D-68 and the very likely connection to the illegal immigrant surge the State Department most likely arranged (considering DHS had let bids in January last year for escorts for ten times the usual incursion of illegal children)?

Just because something was used as a smokescreen doesn't mean it isn't real.

to give something such massive media coverage so that it becomes part of everyone’s conversation says that it is an immediate threat to those engaged in that conversation .

Oh. I see, like Miley Cyrus twerking, or the Super Bowl.

every year at least 7,000 people die from FALLING here’s proof of that and HUNDREDS of other kinds of possible deaths that are more deadly that your ebola:

For starters, it isn't MY Ebola. I don't own it, don't have any, and would rather not have any. Yes, Virginia, there are other things on the planet which have killed more people. Stupidity ranks up there, along with the inability to recognize genuine threats exist, and deal with those as needed, or avoid them if possible.

The thing is, most threats can be avoided. Ebola is one of those things that has classically died out for lack of ability to travel. Those in an infected village would die, maybe a couple survive, and the folks down the road would go on. Isolation is the key.

For the first time, in the current outbreak (remember, please, that there is an outbreak, just not here), the disease had traveled via airliner to other countries. Ours is one of them. That was unprecedented, and breached the primary defense against Ebola that had heretofore been 100% effective: distance.

At no time have I EVER said the media is not a threat.

Now, if you can, wrap your head around the idea that part of that threat is what the media is NOT saying (coupled with the short-attention-span people have been trained by media to have which lets them forget what isn't being reported).

You asserted ebola was a figment of the media. But there are thousands of dead people who won't assert anything, who died of ebola in Africa in the past 12 months. Some figment.

so there is 13,000 more of a chance to of dieing from falling than from ebola, ditto for being a victim of a mass shooting etc. (assuming 1 American dies of ebola this year lol).LOL? You find bleeding and sh*tting yourself to death funny? You are a sick puppy.

Bad math, too. There is a 25% chance of dying from Ebola in the US (two of eight patients here died) IF you have contracted the disease.

Not knowing how many people fell without dying makes your 13000 useless for comparative purposes, but even on your numbers basis, the number of people who died from falls is 6500 times that of the people who died of Ebola, not 13000.

Believe what you will. Get back to me when you discover capital letters.

150,000 Americans die per year from injury,13,000 just from falls http://danger.mongabay.com/injury_death.htm

. this is not to make light of it but put it into perspective that ebola is not a threat statistically and will not be to the USA as the MASSIVE PERVASIVE MEDIA coverage made it out to be. see only something that is a threat warrants such massive news coverage. now the media stopped the massive coverage after the election and no one sees how the media cried wolf again. only i see it. all you are doing is cherry picking words that i write fast to insult me. i have limited time to post and have to rush but all you seek to do is insult me by cherry picking a misplaced word or punctuation cause you can't make your argument defending the liberal media. . i don't care what you say and know what you are doing. you can't admit the media fooled you and you seek to insult me. the media lied again . you seem to be plenty angry at me but not the media for terrorizing children with all these fake threats and for destroying our country by moving the country to the left.

150,000 Americans die per year from injury,13,000 just from falls http://danger.mongabay.com/injury_death.htm . I bet no Americans will die of Ebola in 2015 . So ebola is no threat to the USA nor to Americans. It's ridiculous that you all believe the liberal news media and that's what I was laughing at.

ebola is not a threat statistically and will not be to the USA as the MASSIVE PERVASIVE MEDIA coverage made it out to be. see only something that is a threat warrants such massive news coverage. now the media stopped the massive coverage after the election and no one sees how the media cried wolf again. only i see it.

Ok you see now it was smokescreen. But you don't see it was a smokescreen for the election and that it ebola wasn't a threat to the USA nor Americans which the U.S. news media made it out to be as evidenced by their massive media coverage of the ebola “threat”.

For months , every day the news media hit us with massive coverage of “the ebola threat” . I talked to people who were in panic mode scared out of their minds because of ebola. I told them that the media was lying and then they looked at me like i was crazy. What's scary to me is the power the media has to make puppets out of all of you.

Me nor a misplaced word in one of my posts are not the issue here, not even the fake threat of ebola. That the media create a matrix to take away our freedom is the issue. I have no effect on policy. the news media does as they give people false information . And how can people make the right decision on who to vote for and what to support if they have false information about reality? They can't so the media rules this world.
