A health care worker at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital has tested positive for Ebola

a reply to: Staroth
They're probably pumped full of some type of legal mood-altering drugs so they can function. Reminds of a friend of mine who was put on one of family of Prozac drugs. Those drugs seem to encourage magical thinking as opposed to critical, logical assessment.

They're saying it would probably denature your blood.

Apparently though it's a thing and it's called Blood Irradiation.

Wikipedia

Wiki says it's usually done with lasers. But UV blood Irradiation is also done. Here's a site outlining that procedure and its history. I haven't finished reading it yet. I don't know if it's possible to process your entire blood volume this way. They mention that the therapy is usually done on merely 3 percent as a way to supposedly boost the immune system. This of course would be ineffective as a means of eradication of the virus.

Apologizes if some one already posted this. Here's another opinion.

Dr. Gil Mobley On Why The CDC Is 'Lying' About Ebola

Everyone should watch this. The CDC has been preparing for this for seven months!

The CDC predicts 1.4 MILLION Ebola cases by January 2015!

The UN is reporting that Ebola cases are doubling every 3-4 weeks!

Yet no one will stop receiving commercial flights from infected West African countries !?

Looks like they want Ebola to spread throughout the world.

I do believe in the depopulation agenda. I also believe they're planning to sell a lot of vaccine. It's also a nice distraction from economic turmoil & Isis during an election.

Finally caught up.

I want to SCREAM AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS to them for blaming that nurse.

Wanted to make some points, most have been covered already but this one


Did you notice this new rhetoric about gloves? How if she was told to double glove, then she triple gloved, then that could put her at higher risk because now she has to take off three gloves... bla bla bla gloves gloves gloves is all I hear. Then I hear it being repeated, journalists repeating this point that more doesn't always mean better concerning gloves... which makes about as much sense to me as "banning flights would prevent the countries from getting aid"...

You know what that tells me?

There aren't enough medical supplies in this country to handle what could be coming.

She shouldn't be taking off any gloves before soaking them in a solution. This is standard procedure in hydrochloric acid facilities

He wasn't saying that is what she did, he was speaking in hypothetical bull# tongue.

It's 1.4M in Africa.

I think its odd that this nurse is the scapegoat. First of all isnt the CDC Down there?!?! Isn't it logical to think the cdc would have their own people involved in the process of care considering the magnitude of this outbreak?!?! If she was doing it wrong why didnt the CDC advise here. Perhaps because they werent there cause they know they really need a level 4 room for this disease!!!

Seems fishy to me.

I want to see Duncan's family. Bring them out and prove to me they aren't sick. I don't see how they couldn't be!

But I don't know why they would hide their sickness. The family members were the most likely candidates for getting the virus, and the CDC admitted as much. They didn't hide the fact that this nurse got infected, and she was not as likely a candidate because she had access to all the protection. You would think she would be the one they want to hide, as people are freaking out that she had protection and still got it.

my OPINION about these two views on the family members:
1: they could put anybody on TV and claim its Duncans family and most of us would believe it.
2: they would hide the sickness of his family possibly to not spread fear and if they did pick out actors to play his family, it would only seem to be to provoke hope, when all it would be doing is insuring ignorance on how to handle the situation.

Thank you for this. I'm right by LA, yesterday I was driving by Good Samaritan hospital and they shut down the entire block while I was there. Had to turn, realized where I was, saw hospital dead in front of me and had a little panic attack, may have busted an illegal u-turn or two. Was instantly reminded of watching the ambulance escorting patients driving by unsuspecting civilians on the freeway. Not a word as to why the entire block was shut down, there are plenty of messed up daily occurrences out here but they don't just shut down a huge/busy part in front of the hospital.

Very interesting tweets from passengers aboard UA703 (stuck on LAX tarmac)

I definitely agree with what this guy's saying about stopping the flights to, and from the affected regions. What King Obola's people are saying is total bull#.

a reply to: JG1993
Various news agencies reporting that the LAX person does not have ebola. I guess they used the instantaneous test to get those quick results?

At that time, and still now, I feel that was a huge lie that the authorities moved Duncan's family members into a house in a gated community. How do I believe the story that since nobody wanted the family moving in near them, some good hearted Samaritan gave an expensive house in a gated community to this family for the next three weeks? I believe in being a good Samaritan and all, but they removed and BURNED all the contents of the apartment, like carpet, drapes, etc. With these family members in such an almost certain fact that they were already infected from their reported situation, they just gave this house away for three weeks, knowing what would actually happen to it? Could you imagine with everything that was done to the apartment, what would have to be done with this house? What are they planning, to torch the house and its every acre now ?

House is probably code for some undisclosed govt camp or medical area. Think about it. ANyone living near a house would notice something weird: food deliveries, police car, etc.

a reply to: butcherguy

I saw that on my local CBS. Read on twitter from the same onboard passengers that medics came aboard at approximately 3:55 PM and then proceeded to take the ill woman off.

At 3:59 pm same person quoted the pilot announcing "There was no health scare." and then tweeted a minute later they had begun releasing passengers off plane and that they were holding the afflicted woman for a "psych" evaluation.

Another couple relevant tweets:

@Gingerhazing "one of the passengers is ill and has had contact with someone from Africa"
@PaulHolland_TWN "May or may not have had contact with someone from Africa
@Alexhaggiagdean "United 703 at some distant hangar. Passenger "may or may not" have come in contact with people from West Africa.

Psych evaluation? 4 minute ebola test?

Don't think I'll be goin into the city anytime soon.

I'd imagine gated community neighbors are the type of neighbors that stick their noses in everything community related. You raise a good point.

a reply to: riddle6

Actually they did attended a small memorial service on Oct. 8, at a church, after that it was all about the law sue and Mr. Jackson photo ops with the mother of Duncan.

The official story of "We personally moved Duncan's family to a home in a gated community" story reminds me of when a young child's pet dog dies.

To stop them from crying and panicking, you tell them "No, sweetie, Scruffles is in puppy heaven now! Yeah, his new family in heaven is playing fetch with him, and giving him all the wishbones he can eat. Everything is going to be ok."

...then while they're not watching, you go grab a shovel and start digging.

Currently, a lot of nothing. More people have died from murders, car accidents, etc., during the period of this ebola outbreak here in the U.S. and the number pales in comparison to the type of deaths above that occur daily and we now accept as the "norm".

Sloppy nursing care results in occupational infections. That is the only ebola transmission event in the U.S. to date. What this nurse physically had to do to this patient, lets just say these weren't "dry procedures". Outside the hospital many people have been exposed, or at least crossed paths, with the deceased Ebola patient doing normal day to day things. No one has gotten sick other then the nurse who was "in there". As we approach the 21 day incubation period it will become clear as those being "watched" are given the all clear. This is a non event until..........

Influenza. A true respiratory infection easily transmitted through the air does a handshake this winter with the ebola virus. Maybe gets into the densely crowded, poorer regions in major cities with healthcare lacking and does indeed become airborne. That will get my attention. That would be catastrophic.

If this non event causes one to pack up and leave cities like Dallas due to one death, just know that in my neck of the woods people die from insect born diseases. Many others suffer for life. While you are watching CNN and fretting about one case of Ebola, that mosquito that landed on your ankle just sentenced you to a year of increasing pain, sickness, than death.

It is what it is...

Sorry if this has already been posted but this article says (without actually saying) that the ill nurse may have not been fully protected. Her lack of protection came from the CDC guidelines about what "protective equipment" they deemed necessary for the UNITED STATES. Gloves, gown, goggles/shield, mask.
I'm sorry, I didn't know viruses could discriminate between Africa and the US.
Many health care workers here want the same protective equipment that is being given to workers in Africa. Full haz-mat suits, respirators, etc.
If this virus can penetrate skin cells, what is to stop it from penetrating loosely woven cotton fabric?

Are we this ignorant?!

I heard that over 200 a day die of ebola in africa and they get stacked onto trucks and hauled away somewhere. I wonder where this somewhere is.

Interesting. They are off the plane now, but one tweet was over the top…

Pilot statement?
