Slight thread drift...
Which government office/agency/branch records and analyzes how the spreading of this news story travels via the various mediums especially the internet? Does such government office have the ability to model or predict at which point Americans are adequately distracted? Nevet let a good crisis go to waste...right? So is the crisis the herpy derpy hyped up news and social networking clamor? Or is it the actual patient with ebola? |

The several hundred gov't agencies that would be tasked with this, are probably too busy swimming in gigantic toilet bowl of bureaucracy filled with the turds of political czars, and the paperwork they wiped their ass with. So, probably not. |

Flu is endemic in human and bird populations. It kills between 250,000 and 500,000 people, worldwide, per year. It kills mainly the young and the old (people with poor immune systems). We are still in the early stages of the ebola outbreak. CDC is projecting 1,000,000 infections in Africa by January. 70% of those people will die or 700,000. And that's just through January.

Some more info.
http://jid.oxfordjournals.org/content/196/Supplement_2/S142.full "As indicated by RT-PCR and ELISA antigen results from blood (data not shown), the shedding of EBOV in saliva corresponded almost exactly to the period of viremia, with the last positive saliva specimen noted at day 8 after disease onset." Basically, if it's in your blood, it's in your saliva. Which means you can be transmitting the virus even if you aren't showing gross symptoms of ebola infection (fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, bruising). |

A valid concern in backwards shit holes...not so much in the civilized world. Cholera is spread through contaminated water - it's easy to shut down that vector with basic sanitation. Not a good comparison. Ebola is spread person to person. It's not as infectious as the common cold or influenza, but it's more infectious than other blood born illnesses. It is transmitted through saliva, and at least one study has shown that the virus is detectable in the saliva as soon as it's detectable in the blood - which can happen before a person is symptomatic. So something as kissing your child or your infected child sneezing or coughing around you can end up being a death sentence. The fact that ebola is here is one thing. The fact that we are not following any real pandemic control measures to nip this in the bud is worrying me. His whole family should be quarantined - and isolated - and not on a voluntary wait and see basis. But we aren't doing this, so I have no doubt that this cluster of 1 is going to be a cluster of 5 real soon, and then a cluster of 25 soon after, and a month from now we'll be talking about best and worst case projections for the US instead of talking about Liberia. |

So take the common vector combined with the less common vectors that are common with Ebola and compare them to our society. What you have remaining is a risk factor that is very low do to our society having modern medical technology and basic sanitation. You are coming up with worse case scenarios based on the picking and choosing of facts. You can't make accurate predictions while omitting the facts you choose to ignore. Next. |

For fucks sake.
If I was President, I would have the State Department issue a travel ban to the African nations currently experiencing this breakout. I would also require that A)no non-citizen could come here from there, and B) any citizen returning CONUS from there be required to undergo quarantine until testing can be conducted to ensure they are not infected. This shit is fire, Obama and his agencies, now populated with nothing but empty headed sycophants, are playing with fire. |

I didn't know about this thread, started a dupe. Has anyone offered any explanation how five kids from four different school districts may have been exposed? All by the visitor from Liberia? Or from people who had contact with that guy? I was honestly in the not too worried about it spreading camp until I heard this news. If that has been answered in the previous 5 pages please humor me with the answer. How the hell were those kids exposed? They are the family that this guy was visiting.t Don't ya just love race based school busing. Why just the five children? Surely there were parents and siblings who were also exposed. Or were these elementary age kids somehow the only ones caring for him while he was contagious? They ate of his flesh, drank of his blood? I somehow doubt this. |

So I'm not surprised it passed to all of them almost instantly. |

Contacting it. Something's fucky about this. |

The title of this thread and the subject are about the 5 kids that all went to different schools have ebola and most likely spread it around. Ebola is contagious before the victim shows symptoms . Actually think about that. |

Obviously the only reasonable Government solution to the looming Ebola Crisis is mandatory background checks and an assault weapons ban.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I'm not sure if Ebola can survive in water for more than a few minutes, thanks to the magic that occurs when a host cell is immersed in a hypotonic solution... or some such sciencey-voodoo-shit like that. There are conflicting reports. Or I might have just made that up. That's entirely possible. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I said "Ebola's common vector is unsanitary water", that doesn't exclude other forms of transmission, it simply says that is the most common..do you need me to define common for you?
