Eboli Containment Logistics question
Posted on 10/2/14 at 10:07 am

At what point do the higher ups realize Eboli will not be contained? They went from looking at 12 people to 100 people in 24 hours just in Dallas with a new possible case in Hawaii.
What's the threshold for essentially refocusing efforts from containment to mitigation of damages?

I'm not an epidemiologist but the first thing I'd do is quarantine people that come from the infected areas or just not let them in at all until they get a handle on this shite.

Eboli
is this a new strain that is a cross between Ebola and E-coli?

Put a damn travel ban on Africa like I'm under the impression we have with Cuba, for starters.

I get the sense there is a full court press to downplay the severity of this.
And their statements are just outlandish.
Yeah just wash your hands folks and you'll be ok....yet every picture I see of people handling ebola victims are folks in hazmat suits.
We are f'd in the a.

I'm not saying I necessarily believe it, but these outbreak scenarios make me put my tin foil hat close by just in case.

I have said numerous times that the telltale will be tertiary cases.
Not more cases coming out, and NOT the number of people being watched for symptoms.
When you see people coming ill "unexpectedly" who had no direct contact with the American Patient Zero, that is when you have lost containment.
