Ebola Virus Disease [EVD]

[Hitman]

What I don't get is, wouldn't it be impossible for EBOLA to spread to the US,
if we NEVER let the two infected come here?

Seems a more Zero Tolerance approach would have been the safest.
As in, "You have Ebola, You're not coming to America"

Anyway. The white suits, armed to the teeth with flame throwers and respirators scenes are coming lol

HOW NATIONS ARE REACTING


GUINEA (363 dead)

Treatment and isolation centres set up in country where outbreak emerged in March

SIERRA LEONE (286 dead)

Army deploying 750 soldiers in 'Operation Octopus' to man roadblocks which are cutting off some rural areas completely in the east

LIBERIA (282 dead)

President orders citizens to stop hiding their sick relatives and bring them to isolation centres as Army sets up similar road blocks

You are overlooking the (ahem) "border" as a conduit. Remember about 1-2 years ago when the govt. quietly admitted that about 20 members of that Sudanese offshoot of al Qaeda had crossed the (ahem) border and they had absolutely no idea where they are?

This is an update on what happened in and to Nigeria...After a person infected with Ebola collapsed in the Nigerian Airport.


Nigeria became the fourth West African country involved in the outbreak when a dual US-Liberian citizen infected with Ebola arrived in Lagos after flying from Liberia via Togo on 20 July.

He died five days later and eight people who came into contact with him were also later diagnosed with Ebola. One of them, a nurse, died on Tuesday.

Said "dual US-Liberian citizen was transferring to a US bound airliner when he collapsed. If he would have made it to his destination...then we would now have an outbreak in Minneapolis....Because that was his final destination.

Does anyone have any idea how long an infected person capable of transmitting the virus is mobile before the illness incapacitates him?

Dave

Incubation time is estimated at a couple days to three weeks. I imagine that the range of time that they could be infectious but still active is similarly broad.

I don't know about incapacitated..... But you'll KNOW by day 21

That's a major problem then. The previous mutations of Ebola incapacitated the patient almost immediately and killed them quickly. That was a good thing from the pandemic perspective as it would kill entire villages but traveled globally poorly to say the least.

Ebola's spread to US is 'inevitable' says CDC chief

http://news.yahoo.com/ebolas-spread-us-inevitable-says-cdc-chief-205903838.html

Lets hope that its not the one that becomes airborne.


Got pandemic preps?

It is inevitable. So we might as well go ahead and bring it here. Idiots.

I saw an interview with the head of DR's without borders. He said it was stupid to bring it here. Not because we could't keep it contained, which he sort of doubted, but because the best treatment hospitals for it are in Africa. So there was no point to bringing it here and the risk was to great.

Isn't one of the extreme tin foilers claims that the elites want to reduce the population? Well,...............

Oh you guys didn't know?

Glenn Thomas (Ebola Expert) was on MH17.
Apparently this guys was about to break the news that
Ebola testing was being done in Africa in hopes of weaponizing it
MH17 was an assassination.
Six key people in the AIDS research world killed in the MH17 crash,
including Joep Lange and his wife Jacqueline van Tongeren
from the Amsterdam Institute for Global Health and Development.
