*Breaking* Ebola has reached the U.S.


Recommended Posts

Well if it only spreads through body fluids, that guy was an idiot for coming into contact with body fluids of an ebola carrier and then traveling abroad having knowingly done so. He should be incinerated immediately before the virus has a chance to mutate into an airborne one.

 

 

You do realize that contact could have been a hand shake or simply touching something that someone else touched that had it without even knowing.  :rolleyes:

So it spreads a lot easier than people would have you believe? The whole "body fluids only" thing makes it sound like you need to lick their eyeballs or something. Spread by casual contact = he and all of his contacts should be incinerated. Take no chances.

I sure hope it doesn't get out of hand here; it probably won't.

 

 

About half the time at the hospital when we get a CDEF infection, it spreads to adjacent rooms. Now i'm sure part of that is bad infection control at that hospital, but this guy was out in public for a bit before coming into the hospital and getting diagnosed. This could easily spread like crazy. Think on this, if we have trouble controlling the spread of CDEF in a hospital with contact isolation in place, what makes you think we can control an extremely contagious Ebola strain?

This will be the movie Contagion, except in real life.

 

Contagion movie in real life=terrifying

Sweat is a bodily fluid that ebola particles can survive in. The problem is people touch their face thousands of times an hour and if you shakes someones hand or touch a surface that has the particulates, you take the chance of infecting yourself. Hence why health care workers constantly wash their hands or use disinfectants all the time when working in their fields. The suggestion that people should be incinerated goes to show just how ignorant you truly are. Iv seen some dumb comments but holy crap that takes the cake.

 

Do you even realize that the flu kills more people each year then ebola has killed in 40 yrs?

From what I understand it's not very easily communicable, so I'm pretty confident we'll be able to keep it under control.

This is absolutely true, but this is in part because those who die from it are either children, or are from the geriatric population with weakened immune systems. Ebola will kill next to 50% of those who get it treatment or not. If it is even as contagious as the flu, its still going to be a horrible thing to spread.

You're pretty much hoping ebola spreads. All of the ebola carriers must immediately be incinerated.

 

That is all. I am going to purchase a flamethrower now.

 

 

America has the best doctors and public health infrastructure..

 

 

 

 

Out of curiosity - who pays for the healthcare associated with quarantine in the United States? I assume it is the federal government, not the patient, as quarantine is a federal matter.

Holy retarded statement batman. Nothing in my post remotely suggests that I hope it spreads. I get that you're trolling, there's just nothing funny about trolling about people's lives.

Agreed, like sneezing, coughing, sweating, ect... The media (Director of the CDD) so far are downplaying or as of last night anyway. Don't worry though Enron, our resident Phd's,Virologist, MicroBiologist are on it for us bro.

Will Judge Jeanine Pirro claim this is a plot by ISIS and blame Obama and RADM Boris D. Lushniak, M.D., (our Acting Surgeon General)?     :/

Probably but you can bet your sweet ass that Obama WILL blame someone else.

It's not really a federal thing, its a health precaution. You can be quarantined for a good deal of diseases. Its just another room in a hospital so it'll be part of the hospital charge. My mom was quarantined once because they thought there was a chance she had TB (she didn't).

are you guys serious? You really think that the guy caught it or something? US is releasing the virus themselves, they need to lower the population without getting the blame other than releasing diseases and virus's. People are so brainwashed these days they wouldnt believe that the government is doing it, if Obama himself came out and said it. Things will only go worse and worse. There is no way of surviving this other then through Christ. And yes you are all going to start saying how im this and that and take my fairy tales elsewhere, but the truth is, that its all real and will happen, becuase it says so in the Bible.

You might find this shocking but there's plenty of information about ebola on the interwebs and you need is basic reading comprehension.

 

Here's a good starting point... http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/lab-bio/res/psds-ftss/ebola-eng.php

It will be funny watching people like you push back your end of the world scenario when this fizzles out.  :rolleyes:

    • How does it compare to the "SeeStar S30 Pro" and the "Vespera PRO 2"?
    • Indeed. And note that those units are MUCH cheaper than this new Steam Machine...ahem.
    • Microsoft have found a way to convert RAM and SSDs into water.
