One other thought. If we can develope a vaccine, would anti-vaxxers use it? Or would they prefer Ebola parties? :hmm:
And some of the news stories about Ebola in Africa right now are absolutely frightening. For every horrible story you read and see pics from, just imagine how many you aren't hearing about because everyone died, and there is nobody left to even tell what happened to them. Even journalists who tried to take precautions are literally dying with their cameras in their hands over there.
Well, how much money you got? Because everything can be had for a price at the alphabet soup agencies, morality and law be damned.
And everyone in political power also ignores the various soup agencies abuses completely, because they have a piece of the pie too, like stock and investments to consider. They know that money always comes first.
But it don't take a PHD to figure all this out, just a little common sense and a desire to read and think for yourself, which most people never seem to learn to do. Just because someone tells you to do something is not always a good reason to do it, especially when they are primarily motivated by money and greed, and not your personal welfare at all.
Unfortunately our righteous anger is already double-booked through the end of the year. Would you settle for irritated indifference?Doubtful this has anything to do with zombies, considering the host reservoir is likely bats, this is likely vampire based, and with massive bleeding as a symptom, it makes it easier for them to feed, and with enough food they may be able to come out during daylight. We will find out shortly.
But seriously though, why do we keep letting muslims from Africa into this country? The next terrorism wave is not going to be cyber-based or even direct violence based, it was and always has been the goal of muslims to put a pestilence on the free country of the USA. That time is now, and we must respond with righteous anger and furiosity!
With quick and coordinated action by some of its top doctors, Nigeria, Africas most populous country, appears to have contained its first Ebola outbreak, the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday.
As the epidemic rages out of control in three nations only a few hundred miles away, Nigeria is the only country to have beaten back an outbreak with the potential to harm many victims in a city with vast, teeming slums.
For those who say its hopeless, this is an antidote you can control Ebola, said Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, director of the C.D.C.
Local health workers with members of Doctors Without Borders at a hospital in Conakry, Guinea on Thursday. More foreign doctors and nurses are volunteering, but a gap remains.
Although officials are pleased that success was achieved in a country of 177 million that is a major transport and business hub and whose largest city, Lagos, has 21 million people the lessons here are not easily applicable to the countries at the epicenter: Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Public health officials in those countries remain overwhelmed by the scale of the outbreak and are desperate for additional international assistance.
Nigerias outbreak grew from a single airport case, while in the three other countries the disease smoldered for months in remote rain-forest provinces and spread widely before a serious response was mounted.
Ebola, Dr. Frieden said, wont blow over you have to make a rapid, intense effort.
While the danger in Nigeria is not over, the health minister, Dr. Onyebuchi Chukwu, said in a telephone interview that his country was now better prepared, with six laboratories able to make diagnoses and response teams and isolation wards ready in every major state.
After the first patient a dying Liberian-American flew into Lagos on July 20, Ebola spread to 20 other people there and in a smaller city, Port Harcourt.
They have all now died or recovered, and the cure rate 60 percent was unusually high for an African outbreak.
Meanwhile, local health workers paid 18,500 face-to-face visits to repeatedly take the temperatures of nearly 900 people who had contact with them. The last confirmed case was detected on Aug. 31, and virtually all contacts have passed the 21-day incubation period without falling ill.
The success was in part the result of an emergency command center financed in 2012 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to fight polio. As soon as the outbreak began, it was turned into the Ebola Emergency Operations Center.
Also, the C.D.C. had 10 experts in Nigeria working on polio and H.I.V., who had already trained 100 local doctors in epidemiology; 40 of them were immediately reassigned to Ebola and oversaw the contact tracing.
The chief of the command center, Dr. Faisal Shuaib, gave credit to a coordinated effort by the Health Ministry, the C.D.C., the World Health Organization, Unicef, Doctors Without Borders and the International Committee for the Red Cross.

And people say billionaires are bad.The success was in part the result of an emergency command center financed in 2012 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to fight polio. As soon as the outbreak began, it was turned into the Ebola Emergency Operations Center.

Ebola outbreak is more than likely just a matter of time; then wait for the panic
They are quickly losing containment of being able to hide the truth.
News conference just finished with Governor Perry.
This guy showed up on Sunday with symptoms and the Hospital turned him away saying he just had a low grade fever.
He then interacted with dozens of people including children.
They also admitted there are hundreds that have flown in from Liberia because Dallas has a Liberian population of at least 10,000.
The U.S. is fucked and we all know it.
This will make the 1908 Spanish Flu Pandemic look like a common cold.
Dallas has just been quarantined. National guard perimeter started going into place at approximately 5AM. Any who have attempted to leave have been shot.
This is bad.
What is this based on?
It's moment trolling.
This is one dangerous disease and we just let people travel here from West Africa. Think the CDC or our national health care will protect you? Think again!
So this idiot had contact with people on the plane. Imagine you just used the bathroom that this guy used or he put his hand on the wall and now you may have it but you will not know till 5 days later when you start getting sick with flu symptoms and then later you are bleeding from your eyes and you start burning up on the inside like you are on fire. Scared yet?
So mister, lets visit Ebola infested homeland, had 3 children and they went to school in 3 different schools in Dallas area Schools. Imagine if they spread it around and all those school kids took it home to their parents and friends.
This could turn into world war Z . . . .
What is this based on?
Absolutely nothing. I'm sitting in ARNORTH HQ right now.
