Odd none of the or friends od the origional case's family has gotten it...
Really odd
Snake I still don't think so, of course I ain't a doctor. I don't believe it spreads as easy as say the flu.

Snake No, that tells me it's likely transmitted exactly how we have been told. By close contact with body fluids IMO gowns, latex gloves and face masks are NOT propper PPE for working around this [bleep]. If the hospital didn't have the right stuff, the guy should have been pit in an isolated room and left to die, then his body should have been doused with bleach and insinerated

Right. Influenza is a much, much scarier disease in terms of its transmissibility, its potential virulence, and its ability to rapidly mutate.

If the hospital didn't have the right stuff, the guy should have been put in an isolated room and left to die until proper protective equipment could be brought in for caregivers, then his body should have been doused with bleach placed in an airtight bag and insinerated incinerated
Fixed it.

Doc, with all due respect, they knew they weren't gonna cure him, why risk other people instead of letting him rot and die. And why not take the extra step of dousing him down with clorox from a garden sprayer, just to be on the safe side.

If transmits as we are told, then if when it gets in LGBTQ community, it'll go rampant in those hosts.

Snake I don't find it odd at all...I think he knew he was probably gonna get sick & told his family that he'd been exposed to it over in Liberia & thus, they took precautions...they're still not out of the woods yet, they are still well within the incubation stage of the virus. ETA: I'll bet their house has reeked of bleach for a few weeks now.

Doc is a Doc. He lives his oath. Me?? I am a savage. The first sunuvabitch would have been dissolved in acid if left up to me. The nurse(s) otoh, we go the length for them. Period.

America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

Jim, my friend, you and I are alot alike. And I understand what you're saying about the nurses, and quite frankly i hope the best for them. But. They should have never been allowed out of the hospital.

Seems Ferguson could use some urban renewal. I'd send all Ebola patients there.

My wife and I were talking about the affect of Ebola on travel just last night. As a long term healthcare worker, I'm not overly concerned, but certainly aware. I can see me flying less once we start seeing cases in several cities. No, chances are you can't catch it on a plane with someone, but who wants to sit next to them or in their seat on the next flight? I'll probably drive more when I can. Or end up quarantined because you did sit next to someone. This.

The bits of reading I've done that botehr me, the virus can live 2-3 hours outside of its host.
Thats mosquito bites, door knobs, food trays, you name it.
In this instance, better to be as safe as you can, which really hurts nothing, is better than not to have a worry in the world..
Where is that Snyper guy anyway now?
I truly hope it stops at 3. Or 100. But until its contained you will not know. Even though Flu kills thousands, this may or may not be worse. Time will reveal the only answer. In the meantime I don't go inhaling around folks that have the flu either... just to see if it'll kill me this time....
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Well, I'll say it. He sends a few companies to fight a [bleep] virus, but lets the Benghazi Ambassador take a high hard one. quaint.

Well one mission would have been to save Americans, while another is sending them to die, that makes it an easy choice for Eboma.
