Now I hear that they allowed the family of an infected doctor to come back to Ft. Worth without so much as isolation or isolation of the airplane full of passengers.

Ok so what if they aren't infected, what if it's on their clothes? Their luggage, etc.?

Were proper disinfection protocols followed on both africa's side and our's?

It's an African export so how bad could it be?

It could use an upgrade, but it's still one of the better places to stay in Natchez.

did you ever watch Dawn of the Planet of the Apes?

That's exactly what is going to happen.

So go get a chimpanzee and pamper that sob so your primate overlords look kindly upon you in the upcoming primate revolution.

I'm more concerned about sharting my drawers today than ebola.

Ebola kills people too fast to spread easily. It is like a fire that burns hot and fast, but quickly consumes all of its fuel and burns out. This has been one of the worst outbreaks in recent memory, but it will fizzle out in a few weeks like all of the rest.

I'm more concerned with chikungunya. While not fatal, it's spreading pretty fast in the carribbean with many cases in the southern US now.

Ebola is only contagious after symptoms begin showing in the infected. The family of this particular doctor had left before he showed any signs or symptoms, and CDC has them on a 21 day "Fever Watch" for any symptoms they may start showing. The incubation period is anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks, so they're monitoring it very closely.

I'm concerned.

It's now in Lagos. Let's say some people with bad intentions purposefully infect themselves and board planes. They then proceed to attempt to pass the virus.

After exiting the plane, they go to bus terminals or subways or train stations.

Not far fetched. Very hard to stop.

One thing I read about ebola the other day was it is not an airborne infection, but has to be transferred via bodily fluids.

Holy Hell.

Lago's victim was on his way to US.

I personally think it has gone airborne. Africa's leading Ebola doc got infected and they are sending him to germany and placing him in a special isolation ward. This is what they say about the isolation unit.

quote:

He will be kept in a special isolation ward behind three separate air locks. The air inside the ward will be kept at lower pressure than outside, so none can escape – even though it is not believed Ebola can be transmitted by air.
Doctors and nurses will wear complete protective bodysuits with their own oxygen supplies whenever in contact with him. The suits will be replaced and burned every three hours.


I think they are moving him to Germany to study him due to some sort of mutation. You know this guy had to take precautions. If the guy that is the head ebola expert get's it, then you know something is up. Unless of course he was just careless.

You people in denial are nuts. This will get to the US and then we are all fubar.

I'm a little freaked out by everything going on. I flew from Tampa to Miami to Nola last night, got home a little after midnight then proceeded to vomit everywhere. I'm hoping it was the Gulf, pool water or the cuban sandwich I had instead of ebola.

Is this phase one or phase two of the New World Order's plan?
