CDC Confirms First Ebola Case Diagnosed In The US, In Dallas Hospital - Press Conference Live Feed
- *CDC CONFIRMS FIRST EBOLA CASE DIAGNOSED IN THE UNITED STATES
- *EBOLA PATIENT IS IN DALLAS HOSPITAL, NEWS 8 REPORTS
The patient recently returned (via plane) from traveling from Liberia, West Africa. This perhaps explains why CDC was "taking precautions in the US" as we noted previously. And don't forget the administration's interference in Ebola treatments.
- *CDC SAYS INDIVIDUAL LEFT FROM LIBERIA
- *CDC SAYS PERSON WITH EBOLA IN TEXAS LEFT LIBERIA ON SEPT. 19
- *CDC SAYS INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPED SYMPTONS ON SEPT. 26
- *CDC SAYS U.S. EBOLA PATIENT IS A MALE
- *CDC IDENTIFIED ALL PERSONS THAT MAY BE IN CONTACT W/ INDIVIDUAL
- *CDC SAYS ALL PERSONS IDENTIFIED ARE MONITORED FOR 21 DAYS
- *CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `I HAVE NO DOUBT WE WILL CONTROL THIS CASE'
- *CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `THERE IS NO DOUBT WE WILL STOP IT HERE'
Press Conference (due to start at 530ET) via NBC News
Press Conference (due to start at 530ET) via CBS Local News
As Bloomberg reports,
The first Ebola case has been diagnosed in the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control said today in a statement.
A hospital in Dallas had been testing a person based on their travel history and symptoms, said in a statement earlier today. Another patient was being evaluated at a National Institutes of Health facility. It’s not clear if either patient is the one referred to in the CDC’s initial report.
CDC hosting a media briefing at 5:30pm; participants to include:
- CDC Director Thomas Frieden,
- Texas Department of State Health Services Commissioner David Lakey,
- Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas Hospital Epidemiologist Edward Goodman,
- Dallas County Health and Human Services Director Zachary Thompson.
That news explains this from last week..
- *CDC SAYS NEED TO SCALE UP EBOLA TREATMENT CENTERS ASAP
- *CDC SAYS TAKING PRECAUTIONS IN U.S. AGAINST EBOLA
It appears the term "contained" means a different thing once again.... as we warned here:
There’s a roughly 25 percent chance Ebola will be detected in the United Kingdom– and as much as an 18 percent chance it will turn up in the U.S. – by the end of September, the analysis of global mobility and epidemic patterns shows. The new paper includes the top 16 countries where Ebola is most likely to spread.
Though concerning, a spread to Western nations is not the biggest threat. At most, there would be a cluster of a few cases imported to the U.S., probably through air travel.
...
“We are at a crucial point,” Vespiginani said. “If the number of cases increases and we are not able to start taming the epidemic, then it will be too late. And then it requires an effort that will be impossible to bring on the ground.”
As we have noted previously (via Michael Snyder):
Even more noteworthy is the fact that the U.S. State Department has just ordered 160,000 Hazmat suits...
The U.S. State Department has ordered 160,000 Hazmat suits for Ebola, prompting concerns that the federal government is anticipating the rapid spread of a virus that has already claimed an unprecedented number of lives.
In a press release posted by Market Watch, Lakeland Industries, a manufacturer of industrial protective clothing for first responders, announced that it had signaled its intention “to join the fight against the spread of Ebola” by encouraging other suppliers to meet the huge demand created by the U.S. State Department’s order of 160,000 hazmat suits.
“With the U.S. State Department alone putting out a bid for 160,000 suits, we encourage all protective apparel companies to increase their manufacturing capacity for sealed seam garments so that our industry can do its part in addressing this threat to global health,” states the press release.
The huge bulk order of hazmat suits for Ebola has stoked concerns that the U.S. government expects the virus to continue to ravage countries in west Africa and may also be concerned about an outbreak inside the United States.
You don't order that many Hazmat suits unless you are anticipating an outbreak of apocalyptic proportions.
And the CDC has just issued a six page Ebola checklist to hospitals to help them spot potential Ebola patients in America...
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, warning hospitals and doctors that “now is the time to prepare,” has issued a six-page Ebola “checklist” to help healthcare workers quickly determine if patients are infected.
While the CDC does not believe that there are new cases of Ebola in the United States, the assumption in the checklist is that it is only a matter of time before the virus hits home.
Let us hope and pray that these precautions do not become necessary.
Because if Ebola starts spreading like wildfire in this country, we are going to see pain and suffering beyond anything that most of us have ever imagined.
Just consider what a health worker on the front lines is seeing on a day to day basis...
I wake up each morning – if I have managed to sleep – wondering if this is really happening, or if it is a horror movie. In decades of humanitarian work I have never witnessed such relentless suffering of fellow human beings or felt so completely paralysed and utterly overwhelmed at our inability to provide anything but the most basic, and sometimes less than adequate, care.
I am supervising the suspect tent, which has room for 25 patients who are likely to have Ebola – 80-90% of those we test have the virus. We administer treatment for malaria, start patients on antibiotics, paracetamol, multivitamins, rehydration supplements, food, water and juice while they wait for their results. Sometimes people have arrived too late and die shortly after arriving.
In one afternoon last week I watched five seemingly fit, healthy, young men die. I gave the first a bottle of oral rehydration solution and came back with another for the second. In the half a minute or so in which I had been away the first man died, his bottle of water spilt across the floor. The four others followed in quick succession.
Ebola is truly a terrible, terrible disease.
The moment that cases start popping up in the United States, all of our lives will instantly change.

FYI - here are CDC's contamination centers...

Wondering who started all this? It was a 2-year old in Guinea...

Ok, he just said Ebola is a scary disease.
He will cut off his own arm before he releases that flight info. Not gonna happen.
If it truly was aerosolized, you'd see mass deaths across the global in the next couple months.

I wouldn't bet your shinies on it.
World War Z
I'm very tired of the patronizing tone coming from the U.S. government's lying spokepeople.
Paging Miffed...
Maybe she already bugged out.
I wish. We have planned for this contingent. Parrotile, is your offer still good? Since I am the most likely vector, I must make myself less likely to be infected. If there is ever a possibility I may be, I can't go home or interact with anyone. I can't let this evolve to that point.
Thanks to all who have emailed me. Your knowledge and support has been so helpful. I am not sure at this point what I will do but i am considering a bug out. Who knows if this even is practice at this state of the game. It may be too late.
Miffed
One thing I considered is that the first people to get infected will be the ones most likely to survive. If we get a dramatic increase it will become more difficult, if not impossible to treat everyone, eventually.
god, i'm flying to minneapolis friday. should i wear a scuba suit?
Dear storm sailor, please please be careful. At the very least wear a N95 mask. Do not take anything from the flight attendants. Do not touch your mucus membranes and pray it isn't airborne.
We all have to live our lives, I realize this. At some point though if it does take hold in this country, there probably won't be any flights to Minneapolis because this country would descend into full blown panic. Ebola won't kill everyone but the economy would surely be dead.
Miffed
My wife is beginning to ask about travel from West Africa from her boss' request and this is in Cincinnati. We have most of our supplies ready and our "suits" are in the mail. Pool shock, N95 masks, goggles, box of gloves, food store, gas was rotated today, emergency food, water, other bugout gear...it's getting real. We've basically spent the last year finalizing for, well, something. I don't think we knew what, but Ebola qualifies. I'm glad my wife listened and moved out here to a minute clinic in Ohio from level one trauma ER in the Bronx. Her ER friends are shitting bricks there. This really gets going and you'll see HC staff not show up. I suggest everyone go get some basic shit from Home Depot. GLTA. BTW, I'm selling all remaining stawks at the open with exception to my size able TKMR position.
The modern commercial airliner is the perfected viral/bacterial delivery system, worldwide.
Flight time from Lagos, Nigeria to Dallas, Texas = 17 hours
Incubation period of current strain of RNA Ebola from time of infection until 1st symptoms present = 10 to 21 days
Pretty sure I read it here first but there are docs in Liberia and other Western African countries who believe the US, specifically the Department of Defense, CIA, CDC, WHO, Doctors Without Borders, and others is responsible for the Ebola (and other infectious disease) outbreaks.
http://www.liberianobserver.com/security/ebola-aids-manufactured-western...
Given how so many so-called 'conspiracy theories' have turned into conspiracy fact these days.......I wouldn't put it past our acronym-filled corrupt government to do something like this to draw attention away from illegal wars in the Middle East and the looming financial meltdown that'll make 2008 look like a minor accounting error.
http://www.naturalnews.com/2-Ebola-truths-pandemic-outbreak-preparedness...
Grow up, asshole.
No. It's too friggin dangerous to try, no matter how much you might want to thin the herd.
Was it a jihadist?
Of course it was!
lol. simply lol.
feramongering about terrorist, due to that intense checks on airports, no fly lists and all that stuff.
and then a single person runs inside the white house and ebola is brought in the US
it is a sick world out of bounds.
CDC Director......"there is ZERO risk of any infection to anyone on the plane".................( that the infected person travelled on.......)
LOL....good luck with that one !!!!
Lemmie get this right. When the CDC imports a victim for treatment, they use a special plane with Biohazard 5-level security. In the photos of clinicians treating Ebola patients in Africa, we see biohazard-4 gear. Then the fucking CDC director tells us 'No problem, errybody in that plane is 100% safe". It's time to start shooting, people.
+ 1 to each of you.
Ignorance is Strength
War is Peace
Its just a little too real isn't it?
We got a Bleeder!

Patient: I feel ill.
Doctor: Probably the flu. Did you get vaccinated?
Patient: No, I was in Liberia.
Doctor: Sounds like the flu. Pay the lady at the window.
Then doc said, if you like me, you can keep me
Captain Trips is here.
Thanks, I couldn't remember the name. Goin to Boulder...
Shoo.. I thought you were going to say Vagas.
Not unless the very old black grandma from Nebraska tells me to. (Can't remember her name)
abbey freemantle
Thx, really enjoyed the book and even the mini series.
might want to avoid traveling to Stovington Vermont and avoid Gary Sinese and anyone who looks like him...
Why are we still allowing flights from the infected nations to land in the USA?
Because Obama said it's racist to restrict flights from Black Africa!
Why that's very sensible. We can't be racist at a critical moment like this; look at it this way; it's a kind of test of your Liberal Sincerity.
So Barry can infect the US faster.
This is a trick question and I'm not playing.
Oh, c'mon, now. Think. Okay ... here's a clue:
Remember, the people directing the final act of this civilization show are much smarter than us peons.
What is the maximum capacity of US hospitals while maintaining the same extraordinary care that the few who have been treated in the US received (receiving).
This guy may be the first but unfortunately not the last.
Ebolas here, we raise the fear (Clap Clap Clap Clap), deep in the Heart of Texas!
Will Boko Harum subcontract for the Khorsans?
The black swan: black stools caused by a black continent.
From Liberia to Dallas via Dallas-Fort Worth airport I presume. Just think of how many people came into physical contact with the "victim".....cabbies, baggage handlers, flight attendants, ticket agents, bartenders, food vendors, etc. and everyone who came into contact with any of them could be infected but we won't know for +-20 days during the incubation period....
edit: adding a good read http://www.naturalnews.com/2-Ebola-truths-pandemic-outbreak-preparedness...
in contact with him and his fomites!! Shoes, clothes, baggage, tissue, utensiles, faucets, toilet handles, the vomit on the ER floor (not technically a fomite but the mop used to clean it up is) as well as his entire living environment, car, airplane seat, and the laundry he sent out to the cleaners last Friday...holy fukkin shite what a disaster. I'm glad I done see sick people (I do chronic, non infectious illness).
yeah...where is Miffed?
Hopefully he didn't sleep with any women/men while he was here. Can you imagine if a prostitute gets ebola?
One also has to wonder if he visited a different urgent care facility on the 26th before he ended up at the hospital.
He probably visited the Walmart doc in the box.
Clearly the borders should be wide open, this will slow the spread... Clearly.
A bankrupt policy from a bankrupt president.
Nationwide panic starting in 5-4-3-2- .
Sadly this is a prime case for military take over.
This administration has demonstrated the need to lie about every policy issue it has faced. I trust nothing..NOTHING... it says. If they don't wrap this up in a profession manner I think certain folks in the services might see what must be done to save the nation.
If it comes to that I'll support them unless the first order is the confiscation of firearms...in that case I'll take my chances with executive incompetence...and the virus.
This is far worse than any doomsday scenario I pictured. As a physician of 40 + years I know what can go wrong. You can fool the people all day long. You cannot fool Mother Nature for the duration of a sneeze.
Yeah Las Vegas
Home Land Security and all other Govt agencies militarized to the max for population control.
Look at everything geo politically, economically and US Federal Govt.
Something Rotten in the State of Denmark. Indeed.
I withdraw my consent to be governed. Ironic that after all the use of public safety to justify contravening so many Constitutional rights, the Feds jeopardize us all via the lack of flight restrictions to and from Afro nations with active Ebola outbreaks. Doubly ironic that we're welcoming so many illegals from Mexico and points south. Ebola, as free as US admission!

I'm a physician here in Dallas but I'm not working at that hospital. In fact I'm shortly taking up a job in another part of Texas.
I fear for the patients there.
The CDC called it a 'top notch' "Community" hospital, a/k/a illegals and Oakcliff R Us.
My wife works at Texas Health Harris Methodist so maybe I'm biased, however Texas Health Presbyterian is ranked fairly highly. Typical ER flow is 100k/yr.
Thanks for the correction. I was picturing Joseph Smith Hospital in Fort Worth.
Yeah, JPS (Tarrant Co.) and Parkland (Dallas Co.) are teaching/county hospitals with higher ER utilization by the underclass. But I don't think any of these places are prepared for walk-in undiagnosed ebola cases. If a passenger became ill at DFW, they'd probably end up at Baylor Regional in Grapevine.
Yes
That's 11.4 patients per hour, any of whom could have been exposed over the course of a typical ER wait. Fomites like the arms of chairs. Only need 1 to 10 virus particles.
<< 'top notch hospital....>>
That neighborhood declined rapidly after they built DART, the public transpotation rail from the inner city to out there. Anywhere along that DART line is total ghetto. I was mugged at gun point once at the North Park DART stop by a couple of gun-wielding teens twice my size [either one of them could have been Barry's sons].
"If you want to keep your public transportation, you can keep your public transportation."
My advice; do NOT move anywhere near a public transport route. You will regret it.
Doc take time and read amendment A under on the cdc site under ebola. In few words...they amended it to include being in a prolong area with an effected patient ...not limiting it to fluids. Good luck to you.
living in a big port city in europe near a place where all the cars that are eported to africa are stuffed with goods from here. astonishing is the fact that all our old matasses are exported with the cars.
but i start to look at all the salesguys from africa in the streetcars for symptoms.
and i wonder that noone here is thinking about virus distribution.
i mean the cars are stuffed witk all kind of goods, for sure stolen goods among and there is a totally hidden population of salesguys and carstuffers associated with salesguys from middle east selling the goods which are not stuffed in the cars to polish and russian guys for low money.
perfect microculture.
sounds racist, its not menat that way, i dont care what they do there. but with ebola round the corner thats the perfect environment for big trouble under the surface.
the "boat ride" is longer than 21 days
short and simple
Long on Pharma!
And incinerators.
Evidently there have been a number of Ebola deaths in Nigeria.
This must be why I have'nt heard nothing for two months since I sent my bank details to their government official?
So basically they're still NOT instituting basic quarantine requirements for Ebola workers returning from the hot zone.
Heaven forbid we should inconvenience Americans wishing to fly to Africa and hold hands with Ebola victims.
I missed the media press question about decontaminating commercial airliners and their bathrooms, anybody catch it?
Yeah. So the obvious point is, WHY IN THE MOTHERFUCKING FUCKING FUCK, HASN'T THE GOVT FUCKING STOPPED DIRECT AIR TRAVEL TO FUCKING LIBERA, NIGERIA, SIERRA LEONE ETC.
IS It THE SAME FUCKING REASON THEY HAVEN'T GOTTEN AROUND TO PROSECUTING FUCKING CORIZINE, LEWIS, BLANKFEIN, FULD, THAIN, MOYNIHAN, MOZILLO AND EVERY OTHER PIECE OF RAT SHIT BANKER FUCK?
You're on your own. There's nobody watching out for you or helping you. The sooner you realize this the better and stronger prepared you will be.
The coup wasn't televised, but it sure as fuck happened.
I'm not sure its a conspiracy and I'm not sure its not a conspiracy but since so many conspiracy "theories" have been revealed as true conspiracy with malice aforethought I'm betting on the latter....oh yeah .gov has a patent on the ebola virus so thinking cui bono is obvious.....
3,000 troops to Liberia? Nah, let's make it 6,000.
Unless these troops have what it takes to "control" the outbreak, the effort is useless.
We were on the road to dealing with the banking corruption when the Spanish flu arrived.
http://www.rense.com/general74/amak.htm
There are no coincidences today. If you feel as if you are in front of a firing squad, you are correct.
Fed 1913
Spanish killer flu 1918-1919
Are you asking for a body count?
The only thing that will control the outbreak is lots of napalm.
lets make it zero troops to the Hot zone
Yeah, we need a Liberian Surge. Lean forward.
Breaking News:
Since we already have patient zero in the US, President Zero will call back the troops, because, well....
"Mission Accomplished"
Stay away from Diego Garcia territory.
*CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `THERE IS NO DOUBT WE WILL STOP IT HERE'
When they start saying shit like this, I get worried. Deny, deny, deny, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, whooooooops - it's here! Aren't we all glad President Goebbels has a handle on this shit?
www.traderzoo.mobi
Hahahahaha. Great call Vegas. Zactly. No one can say that with certainty and the fact that the head of the CDC said it is scary as hell
Obama can't handle his nuts let alone Ebola.
Obama can't handle his nuts let alone Ebola.
CDC: we have it under control...(a vial of ebola drops a nd shatters on the floor)...well, maybe not...
"28 Days Later" Watch it, dream it, live it. ;>
My husband's a biochemist. He assures me that this ebola is some scary shit. I knew, with a 21 day incubation period, that there was more than a 75% chance that it would land here by October. How many people has this Dallas patient contacted between the airplane ride home and the 6 or 7 days before he got sick? FUCK!! Gotta stop flights to and from Africa, if it's even possible. Which I highly doubt.
Most flights from Africa don't come here. The connections are in Europe or Asia. We would need to stop every plane from everywhere.
Rest assured, people will want to travel a whole lot less as a result of this outbreak.
Unless you are from West Africa.
If you really took out all air travel to/from Africa, you wouldn't create too much damage to global economic activity, but you sure would bruise the multicultural crew's egos.
You're a racist.
I guess you needed to wink or something, there's a lot of new posters.
too late
I hear he was working a "Kissing Booth" for charity at a county fair the days leading up to his hospital admittance. ; *
We own the skies. We can shut it down of we wanted to, but that would not be civilized. It would be biased, profiling, racist or otherwise not PC to do that sort of thing. That is what a closed-minded, bigoted, conservative might do.
I'm also a trained biochemist. I agree with your husband. I hope we're both wrong.
The iRNA vaccines show the most promise, IMHO.
Wasn't one of the problems with HIV was that it mutated so quickly? Making it very difficult to find a single "magic" bullet to kill it off?
Yeah well if you decide to stay home from work don't forget to pay your mortgage, electric bill etc because believe me it will be business as usual straight to the grave. And almost deservingly so as an entire society has been built on fake fucking bullshit to an extent we can't pull back and protect ourselves from this without experiencing total collapse.
Just write in big red letters over your door "EBOLA" and nobody would dare evict or foreclose on you. Besides, if it gets that bad, the banks and law enforement won't have enough personnel to even carry out such a task. And who'll be left to buy your house anyway????
LOL, good idea. What i'm saying is it's not going to be like everyone has it all of the sudden. You'll be forced to continue in society until it's too late. With luck you will have survived until it hits the big time and then youl damn well you better pull out all the stops.
160,000? What's that? A few hundred or for ever top level fuckhead in DC?
The president forgot to cover all bases. He should have named himself Quey Barak Hussein Ebola Obama.
Oh, So Barry, George and Val's plan is in full effect. Phase I begins. Agenda 21 on the march...
Good. At least the pilot light is on in some of your heads. Turn on your brains and wake up.
You world travellers be sure to stock the pantry and the bar before you take your next trip. When you don't return, I will take good care of my, err, your big nice house.
Liberal jetsetters...will you be protesting physically-distressed Africans sitting in first class?
well I guess I will be the first to say it. Barry got what he wanted..... as sick the fuck as that is.
Black swan (literally bitchez)
Don't pick up the adult diapers along the highway any more!
oh I forgot the new elite don't do menial tasks like highway cleanup projects anymore
For fuck's sake,people. Get a grip. I know you all lurk in your baseements, wishing for the end-times so you can exert your prepper dominance over the rest of humanity. Um... it's not going to happen that way and your great-grandchildren will be trying to figure out what to do with your idiotic bunkers, your MRE's and such. It's just not how devolution works. That's what cracks me up about the assholes who keep calling for the guillotine. Let's use a 200 year old technology to solve today's problems. Very dramatic reference, but symptomatic of douchebaggery.
I know the jews (I didn't spell it joos like you assholes) created AIDS, the financial crisis, and probably Ebola. They certainly are the cause of every conflict anywhere in the world. Those damn Rothschilds. Those jews are a tricky bunch. No... wait... I meant the Zionists. Because we all love the Jews but hate the Zionists.
Ebola in developed countries is about as scary as ISIS. By the way, ISIS and the CIA are both under you bed and plan to decapitate you tonight.
That's where I hope you keep your attention. That way, you aren't clogging up the channels of reality.
Only an idiot would take the guillotine references seriously.
Ouch.
Nothing bad happens to optimists.
And nothing good happens to pessimists.
Wow, this is getting deep.
I know. It's like trying to rationalize Roko's Basilisk. Except you're not damned for eternity for commenting on this board.
If we could generally agree that Occum's Razor generally prevails, we could actually agree who the skins and shirts are...me thinks.
Agreed. On this site, however, I think Hanlon's razor may be more appropriate.
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
It seems to apply on so many levels.
And that is what so amazes me. People are so universally stupid; some all of the time, many most of the time, and just about everyone else, me included, at least some of the time. The more that I've learned, the more ignorant I realize that I am. Not being self depreciating, it's just how I view how much there is to learn and understand.
I think Frank Zappa said it best in a paraphrase: 'There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life."
I also agree that the more we learn, the more of our own ignorance we discover. It's just that my disdain for those who generalize, blame broad classes of people, and wallow in confirmation bias inspires my commenting muse.
Still, I enjoy this site for the simple fact that we can all exhibit our stupidity, or learn from that of others.
Figures that you would be familiar with Zappa's noise. You're in luck, chief, Ebola is looking promising as a deconstruction tool for the US way of life. Just like Zappa's noise attempted to deconstruct music, or Dadaism attempted to deconstruct art. Since you seem to like this sort of 'back-to-basics' in your culture, why not head to the African bush and chuck spears at other people when you get hungry?
Yes, preppers are the scourge of society just under the terrible hard working average Tea Party radicals. I see them on the news rioting and looting all the time - OH sorry that was some other entitlement group of new citizens and non-producers.
Not a scourge by any measure. Just a mis-allocation of assets to assuage an irrational, emotional end. Can't blame you, but certainly won't endorse you.
You realize being a law-abiding "hard-working" naive taxpayer is the fuel that keeps the current system alive, regardless how rotten and corrupted it becomes. If you are hard-working, you are basically on your knees taking it the ass repeatly and apparently enjoying it. Chances are, you might lose everything you worked so hard for, and probably would cry a river and give up every little freedom left for Totalitarianism just to keep a small a portion of the fruits of your labor.
I'm not saying rioting/looting/protesting is the way to go. But working inside the system is not necessarily much better, unless you're "hard-working" in the underground economy, you are the lifeblood.
Don't forget the Crypto-Jews. There, posted for ya Tony Wiiiilsooon.
Thanks, Falcon. I was kind of baiting Tony, but a appreciate your proxy!
Too many Left-handers as it is...:)
I have to agree with Minge here. Zero Hedge commenters have been increasingly showing anti-semitism. That's called a scapegoat and doesn't solve problems. It's how Hitler got elected democratically. It's how you fall in Totalitarianism. Sure the system is going the get worst. I have nothing against prepping and all... But to lay the blame on Jews merely because the a small Ashkenazi minority hold a disproportionate proportion of questionable power positions on Wall St and Government is not a solution.
In the end, the focus should stay on international bankers and their political cronies (many of which are Ashkenazi jews, but still a small minority), and the mass corruption and general moral decay that's been growing exponentially since 2008. The system in general is rotten at the core, and unlikely repairable short of a global systemic reset. Ignorance and easily manipulable fear from the masses just makes it all worse. Ebola and ISIS are merely distractions which Governments love to use so the masses forget the real issues.
Yum! I drink up the downvotes of you silver-hoarding, basement-dwelling, "stackers" like they are the sweet, sweet tears of the losers that you are.
Keep waiting for the end-times. The fourth turning. The plague to end all plagues.
And watch your "reality" get smaller and smaller while you masturbate on your delusions. Confirmation bias must be an incredible aphrodisiac.
I'll agree that the world is one fucked up place. I'll also agree that we all need, as individuals, to take care of ourselves in an uncertain future.
But, seriously... most of you people are fucked up beyond all recognition. Learn how to adapt to physical reality; rather than blather on, wasting your resources, preparing for fantasy.
Jews. They're bad. So I've been told.
You're outed dude. Only a Jew wouldn't throw a Jew down the well. Gulp
I'm addicted to ZH but some of the things said here...
Those 160,000 Hazmat suits are not for you and me and they're not for TB or AIDS. They expect something.
Maybe we can try convincing the gays and whores to stop humping around with each other and with black guys.
That's how HIV spread, we don't need anymore of this behavior.
It just HAD to be in Texas, didn't it!
if America gets Ebola, the worst hit population will be those high density immigrant and alien enclaves, the places so crowded they can't flush toilet paper fast enough and have to keep a "can" in the bathroom for used tissue (its so common the LA Times has writen about the practice).
Did not know that? I miss my California...born there, lived there during the beautiful golden days of California before it was turned into a cesspool of third worlders out of "compassion" aka "Destroy the USA because We Been Successfu."
Miss it terribly.
I miss it too, but when I go back, it feels like a foreign country. All those liberals ...
Remember when everyone in CA was from Connecticut or the Northeast? Now: foreigners.
In Colorado now. It is turning, slowly, into California.
So there's hope, a silver lining?
Stopping it HERE = Liberia made a lot more sense. Obomber and his administation are beyond clueless. One thing re Ebola is it is masking all the nosquito-born viruses that are coming north. My buddy had denque in Oaxaca and it was brutal.
Squrriels!
N... this makes me absolutely sick (well, not Ebola kind of sick) but I'm 2 hours from DFW and my one and only kid lives about 20 minutes from that newly minted hell-hole (as if it wasn't already). 24 y/o kid - OH Mom, you are such a conspiracy theorist - yep have been for some time because the theories just keep peeping out from the covers - Perhaps I'm misunderstanding 'Squirriels'.... but it made me think of a private family joke on MOM!
Any who - I have been counting threads on when this would become a sad reality.... OKAY - yep, get a grip, yada, yada....
How do I get Miffed to chime in...
Paging Miffed, please report to the panic room, Paging Miffed...
~..~ glad I'm old, but I am SICK of heart on what is coming .
Oh I think Miffed will be along, maybe not this deep into the thread though, check up top perhaps.
As for me, I say "Squirrels" because I think its a bunch of manufactured hoo hah. Its not airborne, its not a pandemic, you can't get it unless you come in contact with bodily fluids. In a month or two they'll be yapping about a new, more vicious strain of the flu...lol...count on it ;-)
I always enjoy your sanity. No sarc.
I'm working on a variation.
Something to do with the revolt of red wine drinking squirrels being so annoyed by busy body academics and MSM types that they launch themselves from tress into their hair hurling Alar sprayed apples and cholesterol ridden eggs at passersby, creating such a firestorm of public opinion that all squirrels EVERYWHERE are deemed by the state to be shot on sight.
Its a work in progress...these pesky rodent stories consisting of nothing have to end somehow ;-)
Epic rant!
48 words without a period.
I liked the content, too. It was just a bit obscured by the quality of the rant. The throwback comment about alar kind of made me nostalgic. Those were the good old days.
Nut up my brothers!
