How Bad Could It Get? US Government Order Of 160,000 HazMat Suits Gives A Clue
Now that Ebola is officially in the US on an uncontrolled basis, the two questions on everyone's lips are i) who will get sick next and ii) how bad could it get?
We don't know the answer to question #1 just yet, but when it comes to the second one, a press release three weeks ago from Lakeland Industries, a manufacturer and seller of a "comprehensive line of safety garments and accessories for the industrial protective clothing market" may provide some insight into just how bad the US State Department thinks it may get. Because when the US government buys 160,000 hazmat suits specifically designed against Ebola, just ahead of the worst Ebola epidemic in history making US landfall, one wonders: what do they know the we don't?
From Lakeland Industries:
Lakeland Industries, Inc. (LAKE), a leading global manufacturer of industrial protective clothing for industry, municipalities, healthcare and to first responders on the federal, state and local levels, today announced the global availability of its protective apparel for use in handling the Ebola virus. In response to the increasing demand for specialty protective suits to be worm by healthcare workers and others being exposed to Ebola, Lakeland is increasing its manufacturing capacity for these garments and includes proprietary processes for specialized seam sealing, a far superior technology for protecting against viral hazards than non-sealed products.
"Lakeland stands ready to join the fight against the spread of Ebola," said Christopher J. Ryan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lakeland Industries. "We understand the difficulty of getting appropriate products through a procurement system that in times of crisis favors availability over specification, and we hope our added capacity will help alleviate that problem. 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.
Of course, purchases by the US government are bought and paid for by taxpayers. For everyone else there's $1200 mail-order delivery:
That said... 160,000 HazMats for a disease that is supposedly not airborne? Mmmk.

$1,200 from Amazon.
So DoS bulk ordering 160,000 of these means the Gov will only pay about $4,800/each.
I feel better off already!
You may not be interested in Ebola but Ebola is interested in you.
So is Obama.
One guy who I would pay attention speaking about this is Michael Savage. He maybe a radio host but he is also a doctor and knows just a little bit about epidemiology.
As he has stated on the subject on his radio show.
Simply determine the strain of the enterovirus and see if it’s the same one afflicting people in, let’s say, Honduras or Guatemala. If there is no correlation then you can rule out the border as an issue but if there is. These things do have unique markers to them.
They have plenty of samples in plenty of states to do the simple test but yet none have yet as far as I am aware.

Spanish Influenza from the 19'teens and early '20's. It killed more than the first world war did.
Too bad potatoes were still stuck in Peru when the Black Death (last) struck.
potatoes prevent the plague?
Plague still occurs today in isolated cases,
cured by antibiotics ...
But if you don't have access to the med
but do have raw whole potatoes with the eyes to heat and eat ???
re How Bad Could It Get? US Government Order Of 160,000 HazMat Suits Gives A Clue
The US Government Order Of 2 Billion hollow-points should Give An Even Bigger Clue.
But the best clue of all was "World War Z."

Pro tip: at $8-10 a piece, these suits make for great rain gear at football games or great all-body wind-gear.
Ebola Bowl.
160,000 of these things are a small number. when they order 16 million or more we should pay attention.
Most of what the federal government knows or says is wrong.
There's not 16M elite in this country...just ask George Carlin...
Wait...I'm NRA, does that count?

this must be the zombie apocalypse the DHS has been training for.

Ich bin Kool-Aid Man, we all sphlatt down.
not that bad.
Why?
because it is likely that the most important transmission vector of Ebola is water... that is.. dirty water.. as in.. "you poop in it, then you drink it".
yeah.
exactly....not too many 'mericans doin' that here (yet).
Tell that to the Obama Kool-Aid drinkers....BTW, I think you're thinking of Cholera, not Ebola.
Its bilogical warfare.

Tyvek suits and R100 masks are A LOT cheaper...
Survivor Dr. Kent Bradley wore the Tyvek suit and R100 mask. It worked well for him.
I don't think the government is telling us everything we need to know buy buying these suit. Or is it!!!!???
Ummm.
I didn't work so well for him.
He fucking caught Ebola.
The only thing that worked for him is that he is a high profile doctor.
May want to think these things through a little more.
Actually, it was the blood of a small boy, a survivor, that saved Brantly.
I often wonder whether they'd bleed that child dry to save a handful of dignitaries. Wouldn't history consider us real-life vampires?

With the elections coming up what better way to suspend the elections due to an infectious outbreak of deadly ebola.
Then again, isis could have cells waiting for the elections and infecting people who go to the vioting booth to then halt the elections half way through the day due to emergency outbreaks.
We had elections but there was a "CRISIS" that couldn't be averted after we allowed it to cross the border from central americal where a lot of terrorists are calling home these days.
Edit: a lot of terrorists we helped create and gave airfare to are calling home these days. FIFM
Dude, you vote early or by mail with an absentee ballot, so the democratic process will triumph in the end.
Why suspend elections when the electorate is 90% stupider than ever, and more engaged in Utopia voting than real-life voting?
check out the 'british version' of utopia. it actually might be relevant to this ebola conversation (ex: 'sars was fake'). british 'utopia' is nothing like the usa one.
Why suspend crowds when they want it to spread ...
Let's not talk about Hazmat suits. Let's talk about the CDC informing mortuaries/funeral homes on how to deal with people that have died from Ebola...

Among those directly exposed to the patient with Ebola were the Dallas Fire Rescue ambulance crew members who rushed him to the hospital Sunday.

Apart from some basic bio in college, I don't know much about viruses or whether this thing is airborne or an nwo/jesuit/freemason plot - but I do believe that things just got substantially more dangerous.
Indeed they did. Remember, this thing is just getting started. We will see more of this, and some of the mistakes will turn out to be serious. Plus, here comes flu season. It's not going to be a clean picture.
that's right; it's not going to be clear, where these 'virii' are coming from, or where they're going. lots of room for disinfo here.

Bill Gates is agnostic, not Jewish. Bill Gates (1995, in an (unconfirmed) PBS interview): I'm not somebody who goes to church on a regular basis. The specific elements of Christianity are not something I'm a huge believer in. There's a lot of merit in the moral aspects of religion."

DC hasn't done anything right in the past 238 years, why do you think it suddenly became competent and is accurately responding to this hype, I mean "threat?"
Stop the freakin flights from infected countries!
Brussel airlines? still flying from region ? really...
CDC etc. Wakeup!
What "costs", "Dollars", $$ , today has and is being spent in Dallas now that fear, anxiety, is rapidly spreading throughout the Dallas area.
Too late as usual
Stop the freakin flights from infected countries!
Yes, and that should give rise to the third question: Why the hell were people from the infected areas allowed into the country?
ummm.....well cuz they want it here? duh.
You could be right. Nothing surprises me anymore....
The Belgians absolutely can not give up on the old empire-dream of retaking the Congo. They are still at it over there after screwing the place up "big time" when they were dominatingthe tribal peoples. Paybacks are hell, as Murphy's Law has proved over and over again.

And the sellout globalist state government is playing its part offering up their worst bad actor to tell you all is well. Right up until they lock down the state and go house to house for "public health and safety checks" and confiscate your guns

Great timing with upcoming elections and all, too.
I'm wondering why 160,000? Will that cover just the elite and some of the key gvmt agencies?
That's how many Jehova's Witnesses are allowed in heaven.

Tell you one thing, it's not making it any easier to keep the markets levitated. S&P is now challenging a weekly trend line that extends back to the last quarter of 2012. If that support fails, we could easily fall to 1550, picking up support there from the LT trendline off the 2009 and 2011 lows.
Any correction of 10% is long overdue and expected. Not very many times in the history of the exchange that 6 years of increases isn't beset by a correction.
1550 is no big deal except for the lagecomers to the party, who haven't been hedging their longs.
Wasn't there and season of 24 about this?

You can have my bong after you pry it from my cold dead ebola infected jizz stained fingers!
So how high the markets gonna go with everyone staying in their hosue for the next year or two?
I'm long Amazon & ebay....
Don't think anyone will be touching 'deliveries' either...
The Fed will buy it all until us pussies can get back to spending money and buying stocks like good little patriots.
Just think....This patient was sick for 3 days before going to the hospital initially. How many healthcare workers came in contact with him or his blood/body fluids in the hospital....like the lab, the equipment? He was sent home on antibiotics. He went to the store exchanged money. If he took mass transit the numbers of exposed just jumped dramatically. He went back to the hospital and was greeted and triaged before they put him on isolation. Oh shit things just got from bad to worse. Just what they wanted a medical martial law situation in the making. Agenda 21 anyone? Your rights will be recinded during the period of martial law. Hope everyones prepared....http://thebookgallery2014.blogspot.com/2014/08/beyond-ebola-preparation....
This is Dallas. People get in their car to take the trash out to the street.
And those who actually ride the mass transit are already wearing trash bags.
That....was the post of the day...right there.
Got something in an autumn color? I want to go out in style.

I was sort of wondering how Mexico would get ebola, before running it into the US. Turns out Mexico gets it from Texas! That works. From Texas to Mexico, then from Mexico to everywhere else.
That's how it will work, folks. Just a matter of turning the gears now.
Jamaica & Haiti would have been the natural vectors. This is manmade.
FroggToggs are also made out of Tyvek, and they come in camo! So double plus good!
Lakeland industries ... Turn 2 pounds of plastic into $1,200. What is their stock symbol and how is it doing? Maybe go long as a stock for a profit. Also go long on coco beans from west Africa as they loose labor to harvest and process.

“what do they know that we don’t?”
Well, for one thing, they know the DHS is tasked to suppress and eliminate American dissidents – not so-called “terrorists”.
I mean, who else could be the enemy if the DHS thinks it needs 2 billion rounds of ammo (an amount capable of waging an Iraqi war for 25 years at its highest rate of killing) to put down a half dozen so-called “terrorists”?
Further, what else could be its purpose (murdering dissidents) when it is modeled after French committees of terror (1792-4), the Judeo-Bolshevik cheka (KGB, GPU, NKVD et cetera) and the Nazi Schutzstaffel?
But, how could this be possible? Where would the DHS find enough assassins to eliminate 50 – 100 million American dissidents? Native assassins have been found (by Judeo-Bolsheviks, they’ve had some 4000 years experience) to be useless after 2-10 such murders. Where… where? That is the problem. Not really, this is where the ALLIANCE will be enlisted; it was cobbled together by the Chinese communists after they took possession of the Panama Canal. It is comprised of Mexican and Columbian drug cartels, Chinese Triads, Red army, Chinese communist party and several US government agencies (Congress, DoJ, DoD, DEA, FBI, et cetera). Simultaneously, they smuggled into the US 150 top level Chinese crime bosses thru Panama. Don’t take my word for it; I collected this info from testimony before a congressional subcommittee and Federal Reserve publications.
Oh, there’s a lot we don’t know.
"The Plan is working to perfection, Reggie!!"
"Where is our Antidote?"
"Fed-X. They promised."
What a mess it will be. What funeral director wants to prepare a body with Ebola.
Most likely only cremation.
The FD will never see the body.
Early figures from Amazon bear this out; as of Wednesday sales of a type of full-body protective suits were up 131,000 percent and sales for one type of mask had risen 18,000 percent in 24 hours.
A cruise ship is a great place for Ebola to catch on.
Ghost Ship.
Up periscope.
The Ebola patent in Dallas was in his infectious state for 5 days before taking himself to the hospital a second time.
a key point.
Gupta was just on CNN saying there is no concern re passengers on the plane bcause the virus was incubating.
That is absolute garbage - while its very possible no one else was or became infected - you for fuck's sure want to know who may have been infected, or transmitted.
There's some scare mongering, but for goodness sake a Dalls ER let the guy walk out after he said he was from Liberia?
Incompetence like this will happen again - that is the real problem.
This shit is about to got cata-fucking-tonic. Ill be picking up more H2O2 tomorrow as soon as I can. 4 Gal for less than $100 ! 1 oz of H2O2 makes for an excellent household cleaner. Works great to clean stainless steel as well! If you need to travel in a situation like this. Always carry a bottle of 20% hydrogen peroxide as a cleaning agent. Soak a rag in it and wear it around your face, cover your eyes with goggles. Food grade hydrogen peroxide, citric acid, and bleach are must haves. And always caryy a bottle of heavy disinfectant if you need to travel.
Texas Ebola Patient Had Contact With School-Age Kids, Perry Says
http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/ebola-virus-outbreak/texas-ebola-patien...
Pets, ie ... dogs, show no symptoms of Ebola that are infected
Now this will get intersting
The obvious solution is to redefine the definition of contagion.
The vacine is gonna be bath salts. Then they can say it is not ebola but a zombie outbreak. "Let me be clear, Uh, a lot of people, um, didn't see a zombie outbreak coming."
His name was Thomas Duncan...
Never let a perfectly good crisis go to waste - especially a manufactured one!
So is it too late for one last rub and tug before this goes exponential? I'm gonna be pissed I didn't pull that trigger sooner if it is.
Make sure she spits. Semen carries the virus for weeks after the sufferer fully recovers.
Can I get it with a layer of or two of Kevlar and plate holders?
'Cause, you know, ebola AND lead poisining is a bitch or so I hear. And some of the symptoms are the same.
BIG DOT: Dallas news tracks down only commercial flight to leave Liberia was a European Air Carrier and they have not been contacted by the CDC. HUMMMMM.

Big Shocker here!
What we need is more government they said! They are hear to help us they said!
This would be funny if it wasn't so damned serious. Incompetent fucking government workers.

We know that Ebola can go from Africa's fruit bat to humans. What other animals can get or spread Ebola?... Cat, dog, American bats, birds, rodents, fleas, ticks, etc, etc... We could have a permanent problem with Ebola, just as Africa does, depending on how many critters can catch and spread Ebola.
So the Dallas media now knows that he flew in on a Brussels Airways flight. Hmmmmm, Belgium, what else have they been up to lately?
I wonder if any central bankers or nato ilk were on that flight?
European NATO headquarters?
NWO headquarters?
nice name nice avatar.
we should have a latte.
Um, I thought I read that they were ramping up manufacturing of suits such as these 160K to be sent to Africa for the fight over there
Does anyone else think it is a bad idea to bomb critical infrastructure in epidemic areas, or is that concept just semi-treasonous pacifism?
Nuke Washington and Dallas. Just when Tony Romo was having a good season. The Stars weren't going to win the Cup anyways.
If this gets any legs in the public mind, kiss what's left of the thin and fragile economy goodbye.
Someone needs to ask Krugman if broken cell walls are a good thing, like broken windows.
Depends,. everyone in the world staying in their house for 2-12 months, could mean even morh printing, amirite?
I think it might have an impact on credit -- unless of course they just give everyone enough money to make their loan payments.
I was thinking same thing...
David Lakey, commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health Services, emphasized that the situation here is nothing like that in Africa, where the disease has sickened thousands. “This is not West Africa,” Lakey said. “This is a very sophisticated city, a very sophisticated hospital and the dynamics are so significantly different than they are in West Africa that the chances of it being spread are very, very, very small.”
Sophisticated = EXCEPTIONAL...
Be that as it may, EVERYTHING is bigger in Texas.
Yes, Mildred, even the clusterfucks.
Good thing we dont congregate together in large numbers like africans eh?
We're going to find out how exceptional here in about 3 weeks.
Is Dallas so sophisticated that fast-food workers wash their hands SO well that fecal bacteria NEVER gets into the ice or food???
Dallas has its' shithole areas too. They're just not quite as shittholy as, say, Detroit.
bleat?
A new tense for bleed then.
What I know: size of the period at the end of this sentence.
What I don't know: the sun.
The Secret Service is all fucked up. Let's fire up those printers! How many trillions can we print?
How many have gone over the WH fence? If they have an incident, that would give them all the reason they need to go full military.
We need to msake sure the colors of the Hazmat suits don't clash with color of the Mad Max tanks that'll be going up and down the interstates..............
Make people buy. The only way to kick the can down the road.
They bought Tamiflu years ago against .. I don't remember the name, was it bird flu or swine flu?
Now make them buy suits against that new flu
No matter what, keep buying.
We must keep buying and throwing away. If we stop - we are gone
Ebola is in the population of North America and the lying bastards at the CDC and US gov knew that this was going to happen by the actions of their policies. We should of, would have, could have, all does not matter any more. We are in serious trouble. "Texas Gov. Rick Perry has confirmed that the first US diagnosed Ebola patient, who is now in serious but stable condition in Dallas, had contact with children before he showed symptoms of the virus." http://rt.com/usa/192284-ebola-us-home-antibiotics/ There will be no getting over it, each week this will get worse. Only the opportunistic parasites (aka elite assholes) think they can survive it with money and mobility, I am personally going to piss in their corn flakes.
Its a big club, and the 160,000 Hazmat suits are for the Azzhats that run it.
Should I quit picking my nose and eating it?
No. You may continue until your eyes bleed. Then make your way to the nearest emergency room for some cough syrup.
If only because of the risk of your own nose not being able to produce enough to feed your own habit.
Yes, stop picking your nose.
No, don't stop eating it.
That's not a lot of hazmat suits.
if the protocol is to change suits daily, that's barely a month's supply for 5000 workers.
Unless the suits can be thoroughly decontaminated, it may be safer to burn the suits.
Or the suits may need to spend a week soaking in bleach
Looks like he intentionally mislead hospital staff; rather doubt he informed anyone that he had moved an ebola patient around on September 15th.
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/02/world/africa/ebola-victim-texas-thomas...
He lied about being around sick folks so he damn well could have lied about when he first got sick. Bet he was shedding virus during that flight.
Given the fairly intense caregiver ratio Ebola demands I'm guessing they figure on 40,000 cases or so.
Sorry double post.
Ebola is government on steroids, it bleeds you out in days rather than decades....
Considering the way we consume nitrile gloves, 160k is a conservative estimate of disposable suits.
5-10 workers per living corpse, each using a new suit every day. That's still not high enough to panic.
At $1200 a pop, they better not be one-use.
I did an on-camera in the exact suit, and it had a "breach seat," or an ass exit cut by the guy who wore it. In Contam the only way out of a suit like this is through the area of least contact, either the back or ass.
This was a polio case, so I was not worried about climbing into the suit, but all the hills and valleys of the material gave me serious pause.
2nd Dallas EVD positive case < 72 hours
No 2nd Dallas case: CDC has it contained
uh?
