    ebola shit is getting a little too real......

    My wife is an RN and they've been putting in plans at the hospital for ebola patients if they get any. That's a good thing I guess since the infected nurse made a trip home to Akron to visit last week. Theoretically it could start turning up in the hospitals here sooner rather than later. So because 1 dumbass lies and gets on a plane to transport that shit out of hell now we get to worry if my wife will come into contact with it or bring it home to me and the kids.

    Unfortunately, that is only the FIRST dumbass. There are so many more out there.

    ..well, that, and the fact that the nurse actually called the CDC, told them she had a fever, and the CDC told her to go ahead and fly on the commercial airliner... ...or, the fact that our policy for keeping infected people from coming into the country is a screen door and IR thermometer (hint: the "screening" procedures were already breached, ineffective)... or, "maybe" the fact that we are not imposing travel restrictions on people coming to America from the infected countries!!!!

    Didn't they ask us to burn the village it started in to the ground? A few for the good of many? I wonder how all the disease would be if we had killed all the monkeys a hundred years ago. We wouldn't have HIV or Ebola, right?

    it's some silly shit really how this is being handled by the authorities......why let people travel freely between these countries? Here's another thing....if you're a health care worker or journalist and you go over there and get infected then your ass needs to stay there until you die or it gets cured....whichever comes first.

    Can't do that...somebody will cry racism or discrimination...political correctness and stupidity are in full swing right now.

    The fact that Obama came out and said we can't stop flights because of economic reasons is pretty comical and scary all at the same time because he either means it or he thinks people will actually buy that bs...the government needs to get things under control immediately because it's getting dangerously close to a tipping point that they can't control. We're not there yet and I'm not saying people need to panic, but we're one missed person away from an outbreak. Hell, that person could be on a plane heading this way right now and we'd never know because they don't have a fever.........

    3 people have it here out of 320+ million. How many die from cancer, car accidents, drunk driving, and a thousand other things each day? The hype is uncalled for in my opinion. Not to dismiss it, but I wouldn't believe for a second what you see or hear on the media. There's a hidden agenda going on.

    75,000 people die from staph infections every year in hospitals...that's what worries me. If they can't control something like that, how in the world can they control one of the most deadly substances on the planet?

    Like I said before, I'm not saying people should panic but be aware...don't assume the cdc is telling the truth or in control because they contradict themselves every day...I hope they are in control, but actions tell me that they aren't. Takes up to 30 days to develop symptoms but they only check your temperature when you enter the country...makes perfect sense lol

    "you can give it to other people on a bus, but you can't get it from other people on a bus..."

    Direct quote from the head of the cdc from a conference he did today...

    That goes in line with everything I've heard about this being a ploy for marshal law...which also makes perfect sense...either way, i think something isn't right.

    I think I'm going to buy an old school bus and make that my DD.

    Probably turn it into a camper and sleep in it too.

    The CDC says you can't get it on a bus.

    That said, my wife was an RN for years, and if the nurses in Dallas contracted it after following the precautions they take with anyone who appears infectious, this is going to be almost Captain Trips if it gets out into the public.

    my understanding is that the nurse that got it did so when she was taking her protective gear off. Accidents happen in any job. If you work at McDonalds you mess up and burn a hambuger.....if you're a nurse and mess up you could potentially die. A bunch of years ago my wife got stuck by a needle. Went through a whole shit ton of tests and everything came back fine but that easily could've worked out a whole lot worse for her. A friend of ours sister did the same thing.....accidental needle stick.....and she got hepatitis out of the deal. Ebola is a whole different ball game though.....it could be the next great plague if it becomes airborne. It kills pretty quick which is a good thing really as far as containing it.
