Two American Ebola Patients Coming Home to U.S. for Treatment
 
IMO they should remain in Africa for treatment. Bringing the disease here is just asking for trouble. Dumb. 
 
 

I kinda agree, unless they have dealt with it in the past sucessfully !

Biological warfare

Hell I had chicken pox a week after the vaccine was given to me.... There is nothing to worry about with this Ebola...

That's not all. (Lice, Scabies, and Chicken Pox outbreaks will probably be out there more).

yeah...I agree. My 12yr old daughter will beginning school soon and there are so many shots and what not that she needs or proof that she has them. If she doesn't have them she won't be allowed to go. Which IMO is a good thing. Especially with all the other races that are migrating to the states and into our schools.

Some vaccinations are pretty ridiculous though... I'd go as far to say some shouldn't exist... My parents usually got a waiver to not disclose even though I always had up to date shots thank goodness a flu shot isn't required I refuse to get one..

I'm also not against vaccinations completely only force .

total stupidity, but not unexpected from this govt.

Where do I sign up?

Keep ebola where it is found and treat it there.....don't give it a lift.

Obama Has Signed an Executive Order to Allow Detention of Americans With ‘Respiratory Illnesses’
 
 
As the Ebola outbreak continues to cause concern, President Barack Obama has signed an amendment to an executive order that would allow him to mandate the apprehension and detention of Americans who merely show signs of “respiratory illness.” The executive order, titled Revised List of Quarantinable Communicable Diseases, amends executive order 13295, passed by George W. Bush in April 2003, which allows for the, “apprehension, detention, or conditional release of individuals to prevent the introduction, transmission, or spread of suspected communicable diseases.”  Although Ebola was listed on the original executive order signed by Bush, Obama’s amendment ensures that Americans who merely show signs of respiratory illness, with the exception of influenza, can be forcibly detained by medical authorities. Although the quarantining of people suspected of being infected with the Ebola virus seems like a perfectly logical move, the actual preconditions for this to happen aren’t restricted to just those suffering from the disease.
 
 
 
 

 
This along with sending ebola testing kits to national guard in all 50 states as well as giving 140 million dollars to a drug company with zero success but good "theories" on curing it.
 
Gee, almost like they are preparing for something that has been planned out. All those conspiracy videos about the stickers on the backs of signs giving cryptic information on nearest fema camp sites almost seem legit.
 
Also, you can look at that detention order as a death sentence. If these camps are setup, then you can guess conditions will be poor and if sent you will have a pretty high chance of contracting it if you didn't have it before you were forced to go there.

 
CNN breaking news.. A patient at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York is being tested for Ebola after recently returning from West Africa, the hospital says.


Great. My wife was there last week for a test. Something like that gets loose in NYC with the crowds in the subway system and there's no stopping it, no way no how, not without shutting down the entire city for a month, and still there would be a LOT of deaths before that ever happened (if ever). Btw, it CAN be spread by air via a sneeze or cough, and I couldn't count the amount of times I've caught a flu on the crowded NYC subway from 'matyrs' who refuse to take sick leave when they're sick, but instead opt to make everyone else sick because they think that coming to work when they're sick will somehow earn them brownie points with their boss. It happens a LOT in NYC. 
 
I also have to wonder if someone in the CDC was getting kickbacks to let those people in? The CDC says the risk is very small, and they have it 'under control'. My opinion; ANY risk with a disease like this is too much - it's just asking for trouble. Better to fly a medical team and all the gear to W.Africa in a big C5 transport than to intentionally put 317m US citizens at risk (well.. 297m US citizens and 20m illegal immigrants).
 
I'm waiting for the conspiracy theorists to claim it's intentional and link it to all those hundreds of thousands of plastic coffins FEMA have. Gotta admit, it's a great way to allow the Govt to completely control the entire population.
 
 
edit a little while later: wow.. on CNN.com the "breaking news" banner has been removed. The news item about the ebola victims in the US still had the new possible case above mentioned in the article. I just refreshed that article.. they've now edited out any mention of the NYC person. WTH?
 
wow.. there was discussion about it in the comments.. but now all the comments mentioning New York or Mount Sinai have been deleted...  I guess they don't want to start a panic, but a little late now to retract it - it's all over other news outlets [link].
 
..lol, watching CNN article and refreshing the page and looking at comments. Every comment that mentions the possible NYC case gets deleted within seconds.

Do you guys know anything about Ebola? We don't need to worry unless you come into contact directly and with their fluids no need to worry... It's okay..

One sneeze or cough in a crowded Manhattan subway carriage could easily do it.
 
Also don't forget the 'unprecedented' African Conference in Washington D.C. this week with nearly 50 African heads of state and government, each having an entourage of 10-20 or more depending on who they are... nice timing.
 
 
 

 For what it's worth.
What is Ebola? Six things you need to know.

 So, if someone had mucus on their hands, or some how got some on something, and you touched it, or were touched and then proceeded to touch your mouth, or eyes . You may become infected?

 
In 'normal' conditions perhaps catching it through a sneeze is unlikely, but have you ever been on the NYC subways in rush hour? Usually you're packed in like sardines, and sometimes your arms are pinned to your sides. I've had people sneeze on me more than once and felt the spray on my skin and no doubt breathed it in and certainly become sick myself as a result. It is unavoidable in that situation. I never said "a simple sneeze or cough would infect everyone on a plane like some claim". BUT certainly a simple sneeze could easily infect someone who is no more than maybe 8 inches away, and in a packed subway car generally you will have maybe 5 or 6 people easily within spraying distance of a sneeze. If maybe 2-3 catch it during the course of the first persons 1 hour trip just that one day going home from work, then in a few weeks when those 3 are on a train in different carriages and they sneeze, suddenly maybe 9 more people get it out of the 20 or 30 they sneezed on every day, and it increases exponentially from there.
 
The fact is ebola IS known to transmit through saliva (and other bodily fluids including sweat), so of course it's a huge risk in a city like NYC with the crowded transportation - because of the proximity. The CDC are trying hard to convince everyone there's nothing to worry about because they don't want people to panic, meanwhile the people who knew the most about it drop dead. 
 
I'm just hoping this guy in Mount Sinai Hospital is negative for ebola.
 

I never said minimal risk. In my first post I said not to transport these folks to the U.S. I was talking about sneezing/coughing.

I say let me near one of the infected, so i can make an aresol of their fluids lol
