Ebola

[rebound]

This doesn’t help matters, the internet and social media are great places to spread misinformation.  An article appeared yesterday claiming that CIDRAP had determined ebola could be transmitted via airborne particles.

So who will be the Ebola Czar to work with Susan Rice,  DHS, NSA, NIH, CDC, FDA?

He’s already used to being thrown under the bus then having the bus backed up and rolled forward over him.  Repeatedly.  CDC seems to be as competent as 2005 FEMA.  Again, why do so many people stake their hope and safety on government bureaucracies which understand little or nothing about humanity, nor reality?

Seems like for all the posturing and posing and statements about how well we are prepared, truth is, no one seems to know what to do. Reminds me of the anthrax scare after 9/11, go out and buy visqueen and duct tape to cover the windows.

So we have been funding all of this with taxpayer dollars, and once again it doesn't seem to work. It's like a town with thousands of dollars for SWAT equipment, and no one has been trained how to use it.

A flight from Hartford, Conn. to DFW made an emergency landing in Tulsa for what the flight crew believed at the time to be a passenger with Ebola.

Instead of the ambulance meeting the plane on the tarmac, they wheel the patient right thru the middle of Tulsa International.

I'm starting to get a little paranoid...this virus is tracking me and following me!!  Was in Dallas - less than a mile from the hospital when Duncan was there - now there are about a dozen kids from Moore schools who were on the cruise ship and have been told to stay home.  And several from Newcastle who were on the ship but were told to come to school.  I will be in Moore area for the first part of the week!!  Hope the virus doesn't have it's GPS tracking on my phone!!

What’s the over/under on how long Ebola lives on a bowling ball?

Nina Pham was discharged from the hospital after defeating Ebola, and credited prayer for her recovery. Well, we just can't have that...
