http://www.cnn.com/2014/10/12/health/ebola/index.html?hpt=hp_t1 "A health care worker at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital has tested positive for Ebola after a preliminary test, the state's health agency said in a statement. Confirmatory testing will be conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. The employee helped care for Thomas Eric Duncan, the first person diagnosed with Ebola in the United States. Duncan died on Wednesday." Nothing to fear though because its so hard to get right Progressives?
I believe you might be a bit mistaken The reality being that If you lie to get into a place that can help you, and are thus not in a position that allows for immediate treatment your care will not be immediate or as effective. If however you are truthful and allow for medical professionals to actually know what they are dealing with...your chances for survival increase dramatically. Likely you will also limit the chances of exposing others to your infection.
Someone has Ebola and you chose to race bait what a shock. What "potion" do you speak of.. Here is a hint. Dungeon and Dragons isnt reality.
Health care workers should strike until travel from these infection zones is forbidden and infected people are quarantined. The epidemic is beginning and all the proggie dolts can do is cry racist? As if somehow being a duped, conned, scammed, cheated, fooled, manipulated, and intellectually abused liberal minion means you're not just as likely to die as the rest of us.
Obama could shut down all travel from Africa to the US with a phone call. Any other people who get in here with Ebola, are on his head. Wonder how guilty the guy who infected us will be? Never mind he's dead.
This healthcare worker was in full protective gear while treating Duncan but yet still contracted ebola, and we keep being told how hard it is to catch it. Things do not add up, what is going on. Oh and thanks to Mr. Duncan for lying about his condition to get to the US and now spreading it within this country.
Would you waste tens of millions of dollars developing a drug that's going to be used 100,000 times? Do you know how much each dose would cost?
So... the federal government, law enforcement indeed the legal system, the healthcare industry, republicans, are all racist? Who else have I missed?
I know and if the premise were correct then it would be one hell of a turn around for Mr., "If I had a son he would have looked like Trayvon," Obama. Now all of a sudden Barack Obama hates Black People?" The fellow has got some 'splaining to do.
Except in this case, it could be fatal to the US. Are they unaware of the Black Plague? http://www.history.com/topics/black-death Upon closer reading, the Plague's attributes are similar to Ebola's. I have an idea: What if we could try treating Ebola with a strand of the plague?(Just like how Flu vaccines carry a dormant strand of the flu) Could work.
That or create Super Ebola. As for the race-obsessed leftwingers now fanatically trying like hell to link Ebola to racism . . . they probably believe that their faith in the viability of extreme leftwing radicalism will keep them safe and protected from an Ebola outbreak. That's just as well, actually; because for damn sure they won't get much meaningful use from Obamacare should Ebola strike them or one of their family members.
Well thank goodness that we now live in an age in which diseases have civil rights! How dare we try to restrict infected people from coming here, AIDS, TB, and Ebola have rights too.
If American progressives envisioned Ebola in the manner they envision firearms, the borders would have been hermetically sealed on day one.
And i guess you live in Ferguson? That has to be the most stupid thing I've heard today. Are all the soldiers we sent over to Liberia black? Are we only treating the white minority in Liberia? Seriously get off your pity packed soap box.
When it goes airborne will it start out as a balloon, then a single engine bi-plane, a four engine piston plane, transition to a jet plane and then into a rocket? The good news is that people will see evolution in action so that might bring some of them into the 21st Century.
The Black Plague or bubonic plague was caused by a bacteria called yersinia pestis, and is transmitted to humans from fleas which spread the bacteria from mice and other rodents. The Black Plague is very easy to treat with antibiotics and bacterial diseases can be prevented through inoculations . Ebola is a virus which is immune to common antibiotics and is infinitely harder to treat. There are very, very few effective inoculations for viral infections. The Black Plague is a JV disease compared to Ebola.
On gun control ~ 'If we can save just one child' On Ebola ~ 'virtually non-existent threat, no need for panic or rash decisions' Big Gulps, cigarettes, transfats ~ OMG! Ebola ~ meh
What PART of he told the HOSPITAL where he came from?? And no one knows anything specific about the questioning process at his exit airport in Africa or very specifically what he told the airport (if anything). TEXAS PRESBYTERIAN BLEW IT! We are supposed to know better and be BETTER. Isn't that what the chest beaters tell us on this board hourly??
