mudslag Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 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: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1231351-breaking-ebola-has-reached-the-us/page/2/#findComment-596597389 Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Memphis Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 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?

CrashG Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 The ebola carrier must immediately be incinerated before the virus can spread. Of course, if all else fails FIRE works on most things. Fire ants, yellow jackets and I'd imagine that it'd work on the rabid Georgia Tech ones and Ebola too.

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. 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?

Gerowen Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I sure hope it doesn't get out of hand here; it probably won't. From what I understand it's not very easily communicable, so I'm pretty confident we'll be able to keep it under control.

Do you even realize that the flu kills more people each year then ebola has killed in 40 yrs? 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. xrobwx71 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1231351-breaking-ebola-has-reached-the-us/page/2/#findComment-596597543 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume it is the federal government, not the patient, as quarantine is a federal matter. 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).

Soldiers33 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 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.
