Ebola-infected Dallas hospital worker followed all CDC procedures
By Thomas Lifson

A just-concluded press conference in Dallas, featuring grim-faced officials, revealed that the anonymous worker at the hospital who came down with Ebola followed all CDC procedures, including the use of an isolation suit. Nonetheless, we were told not to worry.

Yeah, right. Are they trying to convince people that we are being lied to? When they as good as admit they don’t know how to prevent infections, then telling us to be confident in their medical response accomplishes just the opposite: it spreads panic.

Meanwhile, we are lectured to trust them and to keep allowing people form the plague region into the United States because their oh-so-effective measures will catch people who have a 21 day incubation period.

This is just amazing.  Why would anyone believe people who in effect say, “We don’t know how to prevent transmission of the disease, but trust us, and don’t worry.”

Texas health worker tests POSITIVE for Ebola: Outbreak of deadly virus on U.S. soil as 'heroic person' who treated Thomas Duncan is confirmed to have the fatal virus DESPITE wearing protective gear

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2789825/Texas-health-care-worker-tests-positive-Ebola.html

Quote
The nurse from Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital reported fever on Friday but was NOT a part of the original 'high-risk' group
The healthcare worker wore a gown, gloves, mask and shield while treating U.S. 'patient zero' Thomas Duncan
A team of 19 epidemiologists are on the ground in Dallas speaking to everyone within a 4-block radius of the victim's apartment
A second person who had 'close contact' with the nurse has 'proactively' been placed in isolation
Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital has stopped receiving emergency patients and will divert them elsewhere
All those who treated Duncan are now considered to be potentially exposed because of a potential 'breach in protocol' in the removal of protective gear
The CDC is closely monitoring 48 healthcare workers known to have potentially been exposed and searching for additional contacts

Obama's reponse to every single problem ever is to ignore it and lie. That is his solution to everything, because he has the mentality of a 6 year old.
 
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

I hate to be so cynical, but every ebola case is another nail in the coffin for Democrats in the mid-terms.

Obama's CDC wouldn't lie to us, would they?

Unless it's determined that the election in Texas, for example will have to be suspended...or conducted via electronic means [read: rigged]    :whistle:

It's becoming clear to me that Ebola may well indeed be the catalyst which triggers Martial Law.

It's becoming patently obvious, isn't it?

Remember the nurse in Spain followed all the procedures, and then touched her face with a contaminated glove.  (Just count how many times a day you touch your face and/or rub your eyes or nose without even realizing it.)

All it takes is one momentary lapse for it to spread.  Anyone dealing with people with Ebola should be wearing the full isolation suits and have to go through double decontamination before removing it.

What is surprising is that so far none of his family has come down with it and with each day that passes, the odds of them getting it are less and less.  8 Days is the average and after that the odds begin to drop fairly quickly.

The problem is, how many other people could have made a mistake?

Just remember, those treating the patients that were flown back to the US have not gotten sick.  The problem is they are trained and far less likely to make a common mistake.

He wants ebola in this country. Not fair that only poor Africans have it. He is evil, hates this country so much.
