*Breaking* Ebola has reached the U.S.

[Soldiers33]

Hopefully you remember what I said, once all these things start happening. Perhaps you will wake up then and realize.

I'm quite concerned. Who was the person sitting next to on their way to the US (or who was on the same plane as them)? Have they been contacted and checked/isolated?

 

 

He wasn't infectious til after he was here for a few days. People are not infectious until they develop symptoms.

Oh we'll remember, Ill be sure to make sure you do to when this whole thing blows over and you're back to your book trying to figure out when your boy is coming back down to save you.

Dont worry I wont forget, becuase there will be no need. It will happen, the question is when.

^{It seems the media has done its job in fomenting fear about the Ebola virus.  Just in time to distract people from the elections coming up next month.  Besides, with HPV, HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and a host of other diseases I'd say Ebola should be the least of our worries.}

The bible doesn't say anything about this, spinning your interpretation of bible prophecies doesn't not equate that this is anything related. Til there's actual evidence that this is some end of the world situation, sorry bible verses do not count as evidence, you're just talking out of your ass. Let's keep religious crazy talk to the religious thread and keep real ebola related talk grounded in reality to this thread.

US is releasing the virus themselves, they need to lower the population

 

Go tell that to India and China first before you tell us / facepalm

Clearly logic isn't his forte. He doesn't understand that ebola wouldn't be very effective curbing population. Many of the reasons why it would be ineffective Iv already listed in a previous post. There are far better and faster ways of doing that. Hell this outbreak has been active in Africa since Feb and only a little over 3000 people have died. It would be a terrible way to kill off a large portion of the population.

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 should write for The Onion. :D (Y)

 

Anyway, I don't see the reason for the big fuss, 'less it mutates. Call me crazy, but I like to see the world burn, just a little bit.

Been playing The Last of Us lately, so I'm ready.

 

Bring on the apocalypse.

Isn't that the plot of I am Legend  :shiftyninja:

No, Outbreak. It's unlikely though. It takes a lot of successful mutations to become fully airborne, and even then, there's a high probability the mutations will reduce the lethality of it anyway.

 

Ebola is already airborne to a certain extent. They did tests on it, and it can pass through short distances. It can't sustain itself in the air very well though at present.

If it gets any worse... I imagine they'd stop all international flights?

Why do I feel the urge to play Plague Inc? :laugh:

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.

You might find it shocking that most of us are not as superior as you are.You need to learn to deal with your superiority bro. Have fun with it.

 Good info on how this Doctor thinks he was infected. He admits that he did not use the full compliment of protection on every patient.Assuming on one of those occasions he dropped the protection he contracted Ebola.

When I was a nursing student, we were told not to watch the doctors wash there hands or perform sterile activities. Of course we did and found out all of them broke aseptic technique and did not appropriately wash there hands or done personal protective equipment.

That's a deflection and a red herring

Never sure if posts like this are serious. 

 

Of course he caught it, that is how disease spreads. Or something? God gave it to him? Surely you know the basics of bacteria and virus transmission? We learn that stuff in primary school.

 

I take it you have proof the U.S. is deliberately releasing this disease to lower the world pop? Kind of a weird disease to use considering it isn't as fatal as others they could use.

 

Always fun to be called brainwashed by someone who uses the Bible as his infallible source of information.

You might find it shocking that I was simply being an azzhole. ;)

Looks like they are treating them in Nebraska which has the lowest population density of the major hospitals.
