Despite Obama's "Priority", US Government "Screwed Up" Ebola Treatment
Having earlier warned that the Ebola epidemic could kill "hundreds of thousands" and is a "priority for US," President Obama's concerns about "slowing economic growth in Africa," are perhaps the most telling statement of the Nobel Peace Prize winners comments this morning. However, as Bloomberg Businessweek's Brendan Greeley explains in this brief clip, US government bureaucracy stymied efforts to develop and test ZMapp - the potential Ebola treatment.
Speaking at the Global Health Security Summit, President Obama stated:
- *OBAMA SAYS EBOLA COULD KILL `HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS'
- *OBAMA SAYS FIGHTING EBOLA IS `PRIORITY' FOR U.S.
- *OBAMA SAYS FIGHTING EBOLA MUST BE A GLOBAL PRIORITY
- *OBAMA SAYS EBOLA IS SLOWING ECONOMIC GROWTH IN AFRICA
But as Bloomberg explains...
NOTE:
ZMapp is a treatment for Ebola that uses human antibodies to create an immunity to the virus.
The treatment has been given to some Ebola victims and is credited with saving lives.
But there have been no large clinical trials of ZMapp yet.

This kind of thing hardly qualifies as 'news'. It's more like the sun rising and setting, or rain (except in California), etc
I find this video disturbing in that it says only the government can pay for this research. Last time I looked the government didn't have any money, they have been using ours.
Zmapp is produced by the much hated GMO route using genetically modified tobacco plants.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it luddites.
I myself am not against genetic engineering, but I do think it's a dangerous thing with all of these not so safe governments running around starting fake fights and I certainly would prefer that the bankers not "live forever" or whatever the genetic engineering promise is these days.
I doubt they will ever be able to stop aging or death though, as genetic decay is very likely due to radiation and atomic decay on the atomic level. Entropy is the natural state for every system, you can not violate the laws of thermodynamics.
My understanding is that Ebola is an RNA virus, therefore a "vaccine" is nigh impossible to create.
The only treatment that 'might' work are monoclonal antibodies in whole blood from children too young to have STD's, that have survived the 50% Ebola kill rate. Hence, the importation of large amounts of young Central American children.
These kids are coming here to be farmed.
Despite???
You mean "because" ?
Everything Zero touches turns to shit
The CDC said they got it, it's cool, mothafuckah
All we needs is Al Sharpton on the case....
Oh yeah, he's busy helping Obie pick the next AG
Sheet... Nuffin get be done
Seriously, can someone name one thing this president has done well? ONE thing?
A monkey with a dartboard would accidently set better policy.
Yes, absolutely.
The thing he has done EXTREMELY well is to bring the people of the U.S. closer together in understanding how the fuck things actually work in this country and what's wrong with it.
I can't possibly explain that to anyone that doesn't already understand it.
"...that have survived the 50% Ebola kill rate"
So...you're saying there is/was ebola in Central America? Links please.
Meanwhile, as if we didn't have enough to worry about: http://news.yahoo.com/five-babies-texas-test-positive-tb-possible-mass-024303762.html
Not to worry, they've got the best and brightest working on it! The same great minds that have been trying to find a cure for the common cold, the flu, and herpes for the last 60-70 years, and trying to find a cure for HIV for the last 30 years.
Now that should inspire confidence in humanity's ability to fight RNA viruses!
What's REALLY scary about endemic Ebola, though, is that it can mutate constantly. This isn't a DNA virus like chickenpox that you get it once and then you're immune... This is an RNA virus like the cold and flu. You can survive Ebola and then get it again! And again! And... Oh shit, this isn't fun, any more. That's what endemic Ebola will be, and NO ONE is talking about it.
That said, there are vaccines for polio and other RNA viruses, but so little is known about filoviruses. The little bastard's got the jump on us.
This ZMapp stuff could be a dud... But if it was funded a few years ago, maybe we'd know, now, if it's a dud or not. If it was found to be useless a few years ago, they'd be onto something else, now.
That's where transhumanism comes in.
And is also a reason to fight for term limits.
Can you imagine an eternal Diane Feinstein?
Consider tech 100 years ago and it will seem a lot more imaginable than you're thinking right now.
Yes, a blathering, 80% metal cunt disorderment with neurons capable of 1,000 orgasms per second 24/7 she'd be able to kill your kids and get off even more so than she can now. And kick your ass to boot. Don't worry about blowing her up though..........her consciousness is on a few clouds. And since greed=more that also means there will probably be several dz Dianemechs that are all linked and unlike the Borg can function independently but still be in agreeance with the rest.
On second thought......maybe nuclear war isn't so bad afterall.
Best argument yet about stopping genetic engineering ever made
Can you imagine an eternal Diane Feinstein?
Or Nancy Pelosi bitching in your ears for a 1000 years.....are all Californians insane?
Not yours, your grandchildren's. Borrow from tomorrow!
I try to keep it simple for the newbies and the idiots. I prefer not to determine which is which yet, as they can prove themselves first.
Last time I looked the government didn't have any money, they have been using ours.
Are you chinese?
T-bills are a promises to pay, that means that the Chinese have IOU's and that means that the Yuan is overvalued thanks to the value of them holding the T-Bills. So right now the Chinese are wealthy because they hold those T-Bills. When that condition changes, those T-Bills will be dropped faster than an algo can start.
So if anything, you should be asking China how long your kids have to pay their share of that debt.
Part of that debt also goes to Australia, which is where I live.
So please remind me why a cure for Ebola is OUR responsibility? So now we're not only expected to be USA World Police, but USA World Medicine Man too? How about all of Sub-Saharan Africa get together and figure something out (or stop eating/having sex with monkeys). Getting tired of the world expecting the US to act first when it isn't even our issue. How about Europe being on the hook for finding a cure? Or Russia? Or China? Or Brazil? Or, and I know this will sound CrAzY, but... South Africa???????
WTF????
Duh.. what else would one expect from the overpaid bastards that brought u obamascare and Phornix VA hospital quality care. Just wait and see what happens when u need it. Oopps. They have better health insurance than u do.

The sixties
This is how I feel about this clusterfuck world......My head is reeling...
An old friend of mine played in that band.
Laser-like focus on jobs for six years. Doh!
Same laser-like focus on ebola = how many dead Americans in the next decade?
Over half. And it won't take ten years.
Every where boogeymen, boogeymen every where.
Over there. Under this, up there, in the air.
But no one sees the boogeyman in the suit and tie
Having them to pay or die.
An American, not US subject.
Oh good, now I can get drunk on more Obola news.
Hold on there, this is Zmapp news so technically you can only salt the rim. So why does all the scary chems start with "Z", like Zyklon B?
Sssshhhhh. You're not supposed to notice.
Then there's Z-ion radiation from Z ions.
Spock assures me it's real. He should know.
TKM-Ebola from Tekmira is a better drug, has already been used on Dr Sacra, was proven to work.100% in monkeys with Zaire Ebola (same strain), is much more scalable than Zmapp, and is already funded by DoD. ZMapp has already failed in the dead Spanish priest. Do some homework on the TKM gag order, etc. There's where the real story is to be found.
Tyler should do an article on it.
And blood from the first doctor was used to treat the second doctor.
Now where will they get enough blood to treat the entire US?
And will they care how they acquire it?
Tru-Blood. It is a synthetic blood, made in a factory, so peeps don't have to go out and hunt for food.
Sheesh, everybody knows.
Now the latest version has anti-bodies that keep you from dying of Hep-V.
No money in the cure. Maintenance pays well.
All hail Ebola. It's going to solve a lot of fucking problems.
In a thousand years, the calendar year will be AE, After Ebola. BE/ AE
http://www.tekmira.com/pipeline/tkm-ebola.php
Not to worry until thousands of Americans are dying each day from ebola. Thats when Americans will panic. Until then who cares about ebola.
Nobody worried about AIDS until it was in the blood donor system
Listen Bear.
It's all about the Americans isn't it. Can't let them "DIE" now can we? They are so superior and irreplaceable.
Everyone in the world loves the Americans, unconditionally.
Obama, nobody believes you. Everything you have said has always meant you will do the opposite.
Your bum is full of bankster cock, and that is the only thing in this world that drives you.
Can ZMapp Cure Ebola?
September 23, 2014, Richard Sacra, third American missionary with Ebola, being treated with Canadian experimental drug – He’s being treated with TKM-Ebola, which is not yet FDA-approved. Sacra is doing well, but it’s unclear if that’s because of the drug. http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/american-missionary-ebola-treated-experimental-drug-article-1.1949364
Did experimental therapy drug ZMapp cure two Americans with Ebola? Experts can’t say, yet – Because the drug ZMapp was administered in such small amounts, it’s unknown if it’s a true cure for Ebola, one government official told the News. Meanwhile, one New York City doctor is working on a treatment for another strain of Ebola. http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/experts-unsure-drug-cured-americans-ebola-article-1.1912271
The Race to Save Dr. Brantly: The Inside Story http://www.webmd.com/news/20140912/saving-kent-brantly
Kent Brantly got a blood transfusion from somebody who already survived the Ebola virus so it’s not yet clear to me if it was the ZMapp or that blood transfusion. Why should he otherwise donate blood if ZMapp is working so well?
EXCLUSIVE: Ebola Survivor Kent Brantly Donates Blood to Treat Rick Sacra http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/ebola-virus-outbreak/exclusive-ebola-survivor-kent-brantly-donates-blood-treat-rick-sacra-n201131
Faith, Medicine or ZMapp? What Cured The Ebola Patients? http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/ebola-virus-outbreak/faith-medicine-or-zmapp-what-cured-ebola-patients-n196931
“But to him, it’s not at all obvious that ZMapp was responsible. To Brantly, a man of deep faith who prays openly and frequently, who quotes scripture as a matter of course during conversation, it’s clear that something else was. “I would caution everybody — yes our two patients have survived but there are two other patients that got this product that did not survive,” Ribner agreed. “In fact, it may impede people’s survival and response.”
Accused: The US manufactured Ebola https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VCu04-FM8s
Excellent.
I would only comment that I think the first doctor received the blood transfusion
before he received the Zmapp.
The lack of an Ebola treatment is not the fault of the U.S., as the disease did not start or propagate in the U.S. It's a problem for the entire world, and the FDA, or any other US institution, is not blocking research in the 200 other countries which are free (well, somewhat free) from our bureaucracy or politics.
Or
it was developed by the US Government as a bio-weapon,
perhaps by selection of a mutant variation of the original wild Ebola.
LOL, the US won't cure shit...we will only MONETIZE Ebola. So be careful what you ask for...you've seen our track record with curing cancer. There are lots of pink races and pink Cadillacs and big "non-profit" organizations with fancy boardrooms, but there's no cure yet. Meanwhile vitamin B17 is illegal in the US.
Fortunately "vitamin B17" is found in many foods,
but that is "forbidden" knowledge.
I'm pretty sure it is available in many whole foods in the US like fruit seeds. Even if it is not available as a processed substance.
Apricot seeds are either highest or one of the highest
They do a tremendous amount of research here on natural substances as treatment and cures for ailments. Especially cancer. This is probably due to the historical and cultural aspects of natural cures in our society. I have read many studies on mushrooms as treatment for cancer. For example Shiitake & Maitake mushrooms have anti-cancer properties for various types of cancer. In many of these foods it is the enzymes in the foods that destroy the cancer.

The three words bolded in this sentence from the article above certainly gives me comfort:
it appears that this would not be the first time that the Defense Threat Reduction Agency sponsored research into the use of nano-silver for hemorrhagic fever viruses, and found it to be effective. For example, here’s a study (http://en.youscribe.com/…/interaction-of-silver…) published in the prestigious Journal of Nanobiotechnology in 2010, demonstrating silver’s effectiveness against the Tacaribe virus, a hemorrhagic fever virus nearly identical to Ebola.
If that's the Speshock study (sorry, the link appears broken) might want to note that it was only done in cell culture, with no long term safety assays, animal modeling, or primate testing. Cellular toxicity varied substantially with particle size, concentration, and coating ( 25%-60%).

Guess what, the two ebola victims brought to Emory near Atlanta have caused a stir. Waste management companies say hell no they won't dispose of the waste which includes, hospital equipment, gowns, bedding etc. They are not equipped. Yeah they were standing at the ready for this emergency.
After the swine flu hoax and the attempted forcing of those tainted vaccines on the firemen and police who flat out refused them because everybody knew the chinese made vaccines were badd j00-joo-medicines and no one would take them, it was just stupid to push the hoax/false flag event any moar.
Same thing with the ebola scam. Everybody knows who created it, owns the patent on it, and will back channel finance the chinese made vaccines, and then try and force them onto the frantic panicked sheep. No one will take the profiteers vaccines that are untested and untried until they actually bring the ebola, or something else in to start the panic. What an awful thing to do. How could anyone do such a evil thing? And, qui bono?
It's always the same old Hegelian Dialectic again and again and again and the stupid Sauron entranced bio-sheeple will just not get it. Like the guy who is continuously pulling the rope that swings the boot device to kick himself in the arse, over and over and over again. One wonders, how can any honorable sane rational person look at todays hoax of the week from the constant warmongering babalonian govt, and not get what is going on?
mapping the genome doesnt mean understanding the genome. it only looks now like a book full of letters they can dechiffre a few sentences. about 75 percent of the DNA they just guessing its coding for the brain, nervous system and hormones. yes: guessing. it was called before "junk dna".

Anything the US touches becomes a disaster zone
Number one rule of a race baiter, Never, EVER, miss an opportunity to instill fear in people for the express purpose of advancing your own social agenda. That's our commander in chief in a nutshell. In fact that's his whole persona as a one trick poney. Sad.
Drones firing Hell-Fire missiles do not help much with containing or curing disease: President Jarret's staff is currently stumped on how to proceed. Rest assured though, she will send her sock puppet out to read more platitudes as soon as another clever way to waste money is contrived.
Time for the Penatgon to write a million dollar check to a well-connected defense contractor for some piece of useless, far-fetched defense item such as Calvin Klein M16 magazine bandoliers - one nanosecond [a billionth of a second].....
It seems things are going from bad to worse. When researching the latest news on the Ebola outbreak I was surprised not to find a lot more fast developing news. It seems Americans have dropped this into the dustbin as an also ran or nuisance thing that when kept at a distance is of little interest. Unfortunately this may soon change as the virus is picking up "critical mass."
In this instant I'm referring to the point where enough people are infected with the virus that it can sustain a chain reaction and expand out of control. The bad news is Ebola may have already reached critical mass and be impossible to contain. The implications of this are massive and it could change everything. More on why we should be very concerned in the article below.
