You’re a nutjob if you worry about Ebola

Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2014 by BZ

I have already had people say this. I’ve been told by other bloggers that I waste too much of my site time on the topic. It will never go anywhere except Africa.

Of course it won’t.

CDC Confirms Patient In Dallas Has The Ebola Virus

DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – Officials with the Centers for Disease Control have confirmed that a person in Dallas definitely has the Ebola virus. Tuesday’s official determination makes the Dallas patient the first diagnosed Ebola case in the United States.

Officials with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are holding a press conference now. CDC Director Thomas Frieden related the information that the individual had traveled to Liberia. The person left Liberia on September 19, and arrived in the United States on September 20 with no virus symptoms. Frieden said it was four or five days later that the patient, who is believed to be male, began developing symptoms and was ultimately admitted to Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas on Sunday, September 28.

The CDC has already told airlines to “treat bodily fluids as infectious.”

The CDC has already told US hospital to “prepare for Ebola.”

I wrote on July 29th that Ebola was “just one plane ride away” from infecting other nations.

Ebola is quite readily transmitted aboard any aircraft, and the patient in Dallas flew from Liberia to DFW. On a regular commercial aircraft.

In all, four infected patients have returned to the United States in specially outfitted planes — three were treated in Atlanta and the fourth, who Dr. Brantly donated blood to, in Omaha. An American physician who was exposed to the virus, but not infected, was flown to Maryland over the weekend.

This man is now Patient Zero in America. The American index case.

Incubation can range from 2 to 20 days. The patient in Dallas could possibly have been infectious on the aircraft itself, which is not “specially outfitted.” Hospital staff admit this.

The hospital also admits that a family member or someone else could have come in contact with this person whilst he was in fact infectious.

Every aircraft has a closed system of recycled air. Everyone could potentially be infected. Everyone who handled his baggage. Everyone who helped him or serviced him at any point in his trip. And needs to be at least temporarily quarantined until tested and cleared.

Further, infection points would include places where he washed his hands, where he used silverware on the plane, where he sneezed, where he blew his nose, and where he urinated or defecated — those places are likewise potentially infected.

Sweating? Vomiting? Bodily fluids, ladies and gentlemen.

Where he touched his oily or sweating face and touched another object or person, in purposeful or unconscious gestures.

Experts say Ebola isn’t airborne. Unless that person sneezed, uncovered, and you were sitting next to him with an open sore on your face or neck or arms or hands. Or you were unfortunate enough to be yawning when he sneezed in your direction.

No, of course not, there is nothing to worry about regarding Ebola.

I’m just a nutjob.

P.S.

This does not even take into account the 3,000 soldiers Mr Obama has sent purposely into Ebola’s path.

Ebola warning: CDC tells airlines to ‘treat all body fluids as infectious’

Posted on Monday, September 22, 2014 by BZ

Ladies and gentlemen, think hard; why would that be?

Well, I can conjure two immediate items the American Media Maggots will never reveal to you::

1) Various airlines have transported numerous infected illegal immigrant children, at the behest of our federal government, around our nation at random but with purpose; and
2) The ease and interconnectivity of the airline industry is conducive to the swift and incredibly-efficacious spread of infectious diseases both airborne and fluid-based.

I’ll get back to point #1 in a moment; right now, let’s examine the CDC angle:

From the WashingtonExaminer.com:

by Paul Bedard

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, increasing their warnings on Ebola, is advising airlines and jet staff to treat all body fluids as infectious, even on domestic flights.

“Treat all body fluids as though they are infectious,” said the latest CDC update to airlines. The update notes that if Ebola is suspected, aircraft can be cleaned mid-flight. The update is apparently meant to stress the rights airlines have to block anyone who appears “ill” from boarding.

As I wrote before, perhaps this isn’t quite the finest time in the world to board a thin aluminum tube for anywhere. Some things I submit one should consider regarding Ebola and the airline industry, as Ebola is — literally — one airplane ride away from an epidemic.

Here is what people don’t think about:

Everyone on that plane is infected. Every aircraft has a closed system of recycled air. Everyone who touched her. Everyone who handled her baggage. Everyone who helped her or serviced her at any point in her trip. Everyone. And needs to be quarantined.

Further, places where she washed her hands, where she used silverware in a restaurant, where she sneezed, where she blew her nose, and where she urinated or defecated — those places are likewise infected.

What people don’t wish to know: some women hover when they urinate over public toilets.and the urine splashes. Anyone who sits down on that toilet is subject to infection. Sweating? Vomiting? Bodily fluids, ladies and gentlemen.

Where she touched her eyeballs and then touched a doorknob. Where she touched her oily or sweating face and touched another object or person, in purposeful or unconscious gestures.

And watch: response and quarantine to this will be considered an “over-reaction.”

It takes 21 days for Ebola to incubate. So that person KNEW she was sick WHEN she got on that aircraft. She did so anyway.

Which is how people will act if they think they are infected: do their very best to avoid quarantine — and do their very best to disbelieve their infection.

Ebola isn’t “airborne” as people insist. Except that it is. Do you suspect you could contract Ebola if someone sneezed or coughed directly upon you — and you had your mouth open, were inhaling, or had open cuts upon your arms, face or exposed skin?

The short answer: yes.

Why do you think the CDC is already telling American hospitals: get prepared for Ebola?

Let’s now get back to point #1.

Why is it, do you suppose, that a “mysterious” respiratory illness is suddenly spreading throughout the United States with such rapidity now? Why does it appear to be targeting children? Is there a correlation to other events?

I submit: it very well could stem from illegal immigrant children carrying diseases — because so few if any have been medically screened — being received through our porous southern border with Mexico and purposely transported (again, some in aircraft) to various sites around the United States in order to “bury” their existence and intermingle them with Americans. The very secret nature of the operation should bring hordes of questions to the lips of the American Media Maggots which, of course, it is not.

And brings up this story, from Breitbart.com:

Doctor: Gov’t ‘Tight-Lipped’ on Respiratory Virus, May be From Illegals

Dr. Jane Orient, Executive Director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, reported that the government has been “real tight-lipped” about the mysterious respiratory illness that has struck children in the United States, expressed concern that the illegal immigrant minors from Central America could be the source, and argued that the government should devote more resources to border security to combat the spread of disease on Wednesday’s “Laura Ingraham Show.”

First and foremost, damn that women for even considering the obvious:

When asked whether illegal immigrant children who have been sent to various locations around the country could be the cause of the virus, she responded “Yes, they could be. We don’t know for sure the government is being real tight-lipped about this, and it only takes one infected child to infect the whole classroom.”

Orient added “we don’t know where it’s coming from…are there immigrants from Central America, where this disease has allegedly been prevalent before? Should we be [looking at] the virus to see whether it’s like what’s been found in some of these countries that are just sending waves of children across our border and they haven’t been quarantined long enough to make sure they’re not sick?”

She also spoke about the risks posed by drug resistant tuberculosis, saying “virtually all of the cases of drug resistant TB that have been discovered in the United States are in foreign born individuals, and the vast majority of any type of TB is in a person who was born in a foreign country. It is a public health nightmare to just have one of these cases in your community because the person needs to be quarantined…and you could catch TB on a bus, there is no question about that.”

A repetition, if you will humor me for a moment: “virtually all of the cases of drug resistant TB that have been discovered in the United States are in foreign born individuals.”

Again, the Obama Administration and Leftists insisting that we, Americans, don’t even possess the right to defend ourselves.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is about to bite us on our national ass.

EBOLA IS OUT

And it is in — at minimum — London.

Ebola terror at Gatwick as passenger collapses and dies getting off Sierra Leone flight

by Rebecca Younger & Andy Lines

Staff tell of fears as jet from Africa is quarantined after the death of passenger who was ‘sweating and vomiting’ before she collapsed

Airport staff tonight told of their fears of an Ebola outbreak after a passenger from Sierra Leone collapsed and died as she got off a plane at Gatwick.

Workers said they were terrified the virus could spread globally through the busy international hub from the West African country which is in the grip of the deadly epidemic.

The woman, said to be 72, became ill on the gangway after she left a Gambia Bird jet with 128 passengers on board. She died in hospital.

Ladies and gentlemen, Ebola is now out into a Westernized country. Just as I suspected and as I warned.

Here is what people don’t think about:

Where she touched her eyeballs and then touched a doorknob. Where she touched her oily or sweating face and touched another object or person, in purposeful or unconscious gestures.

And watch: response and quarantine to this will be considered an “over-reaction.”

It takes 21 days for Ebola to incubate. So that person KNEW she was sick WHEN she got on that aircraft. She did so anyway.

And I say this: I submit this is a very poor time to be getting into any airliner for any reason. It is av very poor time to take an international trip. Anywhere. For any reason. You have no idea where that aircraft has been and who has been sitting in the seat you’re about to occupy.

Further, it is a very poor time to be near a hub of large population, as in any large city serviced by a major international airport. For, now, obvious reasons.

I said Ebola was “one plane ride away.”

And it clearly is.

FIRST obvious step: NO ONE from Africa enters this country

P.S.

You wonder how Ebola transfers in primitive Africa? This way: tradition indicates that when someone dies, you wash and tend the body afterwards, and many people come in contact. Now, black people in Africa believe that the White Man has created Ebola and applied it to them — and it won’t be eradicated because the White Man, via White Doctors, refuses to allow them to conduct their rituals for the deceased.

Potential Ebola arrivals in North Carolina, Texas and Canada? Where else?

Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2014 by BZ

The Peace Corps is currently removing its volunteers from the countries of Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone because of the Ebola outbreak in those three nations. It is believed that some volunteers were exposed to Ebola whilst making contact with locals.

There are at least three U.S. citizens known to have contracted the disease. Two are medical workers in Liberia, Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol.

Brantly and the couple’s 3- and 5-year-old children left Liberia for a scheduled visit to the United States on July 20. Days later, Kent Brantly quarantined himself in the isolation ward of a hospital where he had been treating Ebola patients after testing positive for the disease. His host organization Samaritan’s Purse has recalled non-essential employees from Liberia.

Amber Brantly and the children are in Abilene, Texas, under a 21-day fever watch but are not believed to have contracted the illness.

Another American citizen, Patrick Sawyer, died prior to being able to board an aircraft to the United States, which he intended to do — as I wrote about here.

A potential Ebola arrival to the US.

One of those volunteers recently arrived into the United States proper on Tuesday and was responsible for the isolation of an entire corridor of the ER at the Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC.

“CMC officials said earlier Wednesday that a patient was being tested, but a spokesman would not specify what for. Officials with CMC said Wednesday afternoon the patient had recently visited Africa.”

A potential Ebola arrival to the US.

One very important physician familiar with Ebola has already perished from the disease, Dr Sheik Umar Khan, in Sierra Leone on Tuesday.

A story like this with no medical attribution does little to assuage fears of a potential epidemic.

British and Hong Kong authorities are concerned about a global breakout — particularly with regard to centers of high population where the virus could spread geometrically.

Ebola is up to 90% fatal, the incubation period is roughly 21 days, and there is no cure.

Now, a doctor has been quarantined in Canada because of an Ebola fear.

One plane ride away.

Perhaps that plane ride has already occurred.

No one can yet say for certain whether it has, or whether it hasn’t.
