Ebola in the United States (its habbeding)

[Leshma]

at some point, there were a couple cases with just one death in africa

You really need to find some time to visit Africa to understand why and how that happened. These international doctors, missionaries of all kinds, they have rubber gloves and a protective mask and that's it. They come in contact with bodily fluids of infected with those gloves. On the other side of the world, in US of A, doctors and all medical personnel that comes in contact with infected wear hazmat suits...

Most of poor, black Africans believe Ebola is doing of some witch or evil spirit and they avoid it because of that, not because it is highly contagious and deadly. So they let bodies of their loved ones, their friends, their neighbors rot inside their homes, at best government workers (equally unprotected) come to toss them somewhere else or in the best case, which is only happening in certain, wealthier states, those bodies are buried in mass graves.

But feel free to believe how your compatriots have the same level of medical care and protection as Liberians.

mfw new ebola case in frisco, the suburb I live in

Isn't that the bum who came in contact with diseased?

The discription text:
"Once we landed in Punta Cana we were told by the flight attendants that there was a situation and that a passenger may have been in Africa and had Ebola. She was certain it was a hoax but they did not take any chances and had a full hazmat crew board the plane and take the passenger off. It was later confirmed that the passenger was never in Africa and after 2hrs we were finally able to get off the plane."

I always thought they check all passengers data before they are allowed to board a plane.
such fail

edit: just read in a newpage the passenger claimed to have ebola ("I have Ebola, you are all screwed"). Obviously that joke was not funny to everybody.

Tough shit for him.  Trolling is fine on the internet (do it err day), but take it too far into serious real life issues and it will bite you in the ass eventually.

Health worker in Texas Presbyterian caught Ebola..

Now im getting sceptical. One thing are doctors getting Ebola while in Africa. The spain incident could be a freak accident, but now this.

I think Ebola is way way more contagious than they know, or are willing to admit.

This is really nasty shit.

[darmaster]

even if it was would you blame them for not admitting it?

[Thomek]

Blaming anyone serves no purpose.

I simply cannot understand how the Texas hospital managed to fail so hard. Afaik this is the 2nd case worldwide where healthworkers catch it in developed countries. This simply should not happen.

Health workers are used to being around nasty diseases every day. I don't get it.

Either its two freak accidents, OR, much more likely: Ebola is very, very contagious, which is bad news for the whole world. It might show to be impossible to contain.

I'd say we should develop extreme Hazmat suits and treatment facilities, put all the best brains we have at Ebola vaccine with limitless funds. Contain Ebola in Africa with thousands and thousands of troops.

Or this will only get worse, and worse, and worse, and more expensive (in lives and money)by the day.

If ebola affects brain... US pple is safe.. no risk for them....

hope full lee it want effect grammar p:

That hospital is known amongst Dallas residents to be one of the shittiest in the metroplex. My grandmother had surgery there last year, and she got an infection in her stomach because one of the surgeons used an unclean tool 

But you could be on to something, I also think its more contagious than the media has us believe

This, its a death sentence to get treatment at urban US hospitals, nobody knows what they're doing.  Had both my hands bitten by a dog a few years back, the dumbshits didn't clean the wounds and instead stitched it up and prescribed an antibiotic.  Both hands were infected as one would expect since proper procedure wasn't followed.  It nearly put my heart at risk.

Doesn't spread fast enough to be very contagious.

[Thomek]

Well no one really has decent numbers when it comes to east africa.. I wouldn't say that and be very sure. It is probably more contagious than the hard numbers of deceased/infected reflect at least.

As far as I understand people avoid the treatment centers until last minute, because they think (perhaps rightly so) that if they didn't have Ebola at first, they would surely get it there..
