Tuesday Humor? Spain's Ebola Containment Protocols
We noted earlier the insider's account of the dismal protocols in place for managing Ebola in Spain's hospitals... but a picture paints a thousand highly contagious words...
This is how a spanish hospital is isolating an ebola-infected nurse
The spanish government has been dismantling public hospitals ever since they won the elections.
"It was reported at the outset that no protocols or realistic training to address this situation because they are procedures for which you must train: you can not teach a person to put on a suit that costs so much to put it in 20 minutes , "
This is the first case of ebola detected in Europe and the spanish government is to blame for it.

They might want to switch to velcro or (2) sided tape... It would be a shame if some homeless person or child accidentially wandered down the wrong corridor because 'Nurse Rachet' ran out of shipping tape.
I could build a better isolation unit in my garage with a $200 trip to home depot. Keep people in there 21 days and find out what they have. Unbelievable.
All you need is a supporting frame, polythene sheeting, velcro tape (for doors), a fan, and vacuum cleaner HEPA filters. That will actually do, and despite all the naysayers - run-of-the-mill domestic vacuum HEPA cartridges actually DO work.
It does not look like they have a finely-honed procedure for this kind of thing.
Easily the most understated comment of 2014.
how about Obama's (non) containment plan ?
Live in a Faraday Cage.
then how are we gonna get spied on?
Not a bad idea; If the cage has a static charge then particals will be attacted to it and stick allowing a stronger charge to fry those particals.
In theory.
Is there a national Cremetory mutual fund I can invest in?
CrematoriaRus.
I'm going to make tape that reads, "We are sooooo Fucked" I'm gonna make trillions
Deson't 'making trillions' involve either sheets of paper or a few electronic 1s and Ox?
Make sure you reserve the domain name ebola . com
I'd go check it out but I don't want to catch a virus.
Domain is up. But lucky for you - it's also for sale.

I hear that Dallas judge is getting on a plane right now to fly to Spain and go inspect the premises, but he'll be OK because he's wearing a purple shirt.
So the lawsuit is on ? Will Judge Judy preside or TMZ ? who bought the rights ?
we didn't need any spaniards anyway....and the beaches will be less crowded.
You didn't contract that. Someone else contracted that for you.
MADRID - Madrid's regional government says it's going to kill the pet dog of a Spanish woman who became infected with Ebola.
Authorities said in a statement Tuesday that available scientific knowledge indicates there's a risk the dog could transmit the deadly virus to humans.

This sounds like a lead-in for Planet of the Apes ? The warm-blooded fruit bats, all the pets...carriers now ? Oh boy. Sad.
LOL. That's pretty funny.
unless you're the dog. dogs can be carriers and they eat vomit. wonder if any were hanging around that apt in Dallas for those days before they aerisolized that vomit with the power washers. this is the problem once you allow eboloa in. it can hide underground (so to speak) in the fauna and then pop back up time to time.
Patient had a huge vomit eruption in the street while waiting for the ambulance...how many local pack dogs licked it up ?
MADRID - Madrid's Parliament passed an emergency law banning all imported monkey meat early this morning ....
There goes my fave Tapas bar.

Might as well laugh?
Seems to be the best medicine next to crying for those hospital workers that already have a good idea what they are up against but are forced into using "chewing gum" and paper clips (circa that other flu ironically named after this same Country in 1918), as a health safety precaution, only because their own government(s) have other ideas and more importantly other interests in the welfare of the general public they have been entrusted to protect in managing a deadly virus!
Lack of one's own dignity and self-reliance really sucks in the face of world wars and pandemics you neither wanted or started in the first place!
They ought to show the Spanish method for negative pressure.
They reverse the flow of the roof fans.
Make no mistake, this thing is going to slam the markets. The institutional money will now be hearing from its expert advisors that they should take nothing for granted and that perhaps some derisking might be in order.
Has anyone else grabbed recent situation reports from Sierra Leone's Ministry of Health? While their website was down the last couple of days, it was reachable this morning when I viewed, but didn't download, situation report #130. Now the past week's worth of data releases appear to have been removed (all the way back to 29 Sep) from the site.

I think we can expect that information flow will become even less reliable as things deteriorate in West Africa.
Well, we can always rely on US government figures to give us a true picture of things.
lol.

Thanks for posting this. I keep asking myself when will people be more frightened with the way the powers that be are managing the crisis versus the virus itself -but we already know the answer to that!
While I agree that a lot of perception management is being perpetrated, in this instance I'm thinking there might still be server issues. May be something as basic as wrong directory permissions. Something to keep an eye on, sorry to cause unnecessary alarm.
I managed to download October 5th 2014:
Total Survived and Released Patients = 477
New Confirmed cases = 81
Cumulative confirmed cases = 2,416
Total cumulative confirmed deaths = 678
Nice X on the doorway. More saturnine garbage
Does it mark the spot where you cross through the gates of hell?
Joe Biden you invoked your commitment to cross over with your friends in ISIS. Start walking
OK, the hazard tape might not work but the Spanish janitor with a can of fly spray will definitely do it.
It had to happen sooner or later. It seems there is this huge commotion in Spain, not because every Spaniard might be dead from Ebola in a year, but because the govt ordered a possibly infected dog to be put to sleep.
My take is simple as ever.
Spain, like Portugal, is a country where people became accustomed to a new order of priorities since free money poured out of the EU in the early 90s. Money that we now know came partly from US taxpayers in the form of QE1, 2 and 3.
Demographics are terrible because everyone now prefers comfort over independence, leaving their parents' home sometimes at 40, and most people opt for having no children out of a desire to maintain their life standard equal as they would if they were single forever.
In the first year of austerity measures here, when pensions and salaries were cut, there was a demonstration on a main avenue because some thousand persons wanted tax exemptions due to the fact that they owned pets.
It is on the mainstream considered brutal and savage to hit an animal even if it means the defense of an attacked human.
This may or may not be off-topic but one thing it is: socialism.
I knew it. that's why I lOL'd at the first anouncement of the dog thing. People are too stupid to live. Draw your own conclusions.
Who the fucked downvoted my flawless example of logic?
I'm sorry. What was the question?
Who the fuck downvoted my flawless example of logic?
The Socialists are going to get us killed.
The tape and sheets are negatively charged and attrach the ebola virus in the air don't you know?
Very good news. Spain is horribly overpopulated, so is Italy, I hope it spreads and knocks the human population down to much lower levels.
My thinking is it will hit the Obama immigrant voters hardest and public healthcare too, they live in the highest densities, and have the least access to healthcare or good hygene.
In many parts of LA particularly downtown, the immigrant households store their "used tissue" in bathroom transcans not out of some stupid cultural propensity but out of self preservation of the overworked household toilet systems.
Your typical LA 1-2 bed Apartment isn't set up to service a dozen adult crappers, and your typical LA house isn't set up to serve 12-14 people, they just don't have the commercial plumbing capacity.
The LA Times even did a series on living in a high density immigrant household and "the bathroom trashcan".
Obama is a truly evil son of a bitch.
Smitty - your post includes one item of extreme interest. None of the African countries where Ebola is raging have indoor flush toilets, which means no sewers, which means no central sewage plant. People poop in the woods (or in the case of Accra Ghana, on the beach.) But all European and US cities and towns have flush toilets. So if Ebola gets even a tiny hold in the US, long before an infected person becomes symptomatic they are gonna be crapping and flushing their virus load down the toilet, into the sewer, and then onwards to the sewage plant. Along the way all the things that live in the sewer are going to be dining on the drifting banquet, and we already know that rats are asymptomatic Ebola carriers. So rats get the virus, leave the sewers to look for food in and around restaurants, homes, playgrounds, etc etc. Rat doodee will be literally crawling with Ebola virus. Classic disease vector.
LOL!!!!!!!!!!! " drifting banquet"
Where I live no rats, no sewers and no people :)
Nailed it! Rats also love a dirty BBQ. I know first hand. If there's any noise in your BBQ, bet you 10 to 1 it's a rat.
Sweet...Id just ignite the bbq.
By 'rats on a drifting banquit', do you mean politicians?
My dumbshit inlaws do that too, they are so used to their home dug "septic system" backing up that they toss their shitty tp in my bathroom trashcan at home. I get murderously angry when I walk in and see that. Fucking hillbillies.
WTF is the downvote for? I have no issue with true septic systems, hell I've dug a couple, but burying a fucking barel 2 feet underground and calling it a septic system isn't the real deal ala the inlaws
Don't you think that was the plan all along? Can't start a big enough war so let's try Ebola. BTW, you should never say that in public. Good way to lose all your teeth. Just saying.
Yes, you ARE bleeding out your ass. And yes, you WILL be dead in three weeks. But doesn't the candy-cane colour tape make you feel just a wee bit happier?
.. I thought it was a Duder Mifflin type office Christmas party pic, boy was I wrong.
Based on a large sample of U.S. acute care hospitals, the survey found that on any given day, about 1 in 25 hospital patients has at least one healthcare-associated infection.

Warning! no Ebola past this point! Seriously!
rofl
no Ebola past this point!...
Who knew controlling this problem was as easy as having Berkeley's city council passing a law? Expand their jurisdiction!
Columbus Day is near, stealth mission to SA for colloidal silver AND gold? They sure need it.
Looks like stage props for a really bad grade B horror flick.
But haven't the socialists been saying, for decades and decades, how superior was government-run medicine?
I see now what they meant.
It is superior for consolidating power...just not superior for your health.
It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out in the next few weeks in Dallas and Madrid. We'll get to see which system is "superior for your health".
US border issues originated in Spain.
Don't LOL
This is what our healthcare will look like after ACA guts the system
It's the perfect storm. IMF imposed-austerity, brain-dead populace, air travel and porous borders.
USSA Not the only stupidest.
Looks exactly like the third case will look in a US hospital - once their 2 isolation rooms are full. About as effective as
"Don't Open - Dead Inside".
Clang! Bring out yer dead! Clang!
Too much, too soon..

If you like your viral hemorrhagic fever you can keep your viral hemorrhagic fever.
Our hospitals have no way to deal with the onslaught of potential Ebola cases. That being said, hospital staff will run for the hills just like the doctors did in Nigeria. Just saying.
The medical association in Liberia has made financial demands, believing that the funding for ebola is going into the pockets of the politicians, who are living rich, buying cars, ect. So if there demands are not met, they will strik on the 13th of this month; now that should be interesting. All those nice new ebola units built by our soldiers and no one to take care of the people...hmmm...Do yo think they'll say to the soldiers...:As Long as you are here? Would you mind...
This is how they will fix the unemployment, guaranteed job openings next month!
25% unemployment is essentially full employment right?
Spain needs a new EU stimulus bailout to run another debt cash burning chapter. What better choice than using a CDC false hood for funding.
Looks like Norway will be getting the last of the Ebola curing test medicine for a while so be prepared folks.
In the 17th century book by Daniel defoe called 'The Journal of the Plague Year', Defoe wrote of how royalty and commonors would wear heavy garlands of garlic and onions around their neck to protect against the black plague. Or feel protected, like we do now with yellow and black isolation tape.

This is fucking bullshit! This is all engineered. Their response to all of this is the proof. Either that or its sychronized incompetence across the board...which one is more likely? The elites have a cure for themselves, but we're made to think there isnt one. If we dont now organize, arm up, and go take dc by force there will never be another chance.
Actually, these are photos of the new techniques devised by the Secret Service to guard the West Wing.

Whether it is actually Ebola or another bio-engineered (by either the US or the old USSR ... as some claim) hemorrhagic virus, this infection is not acting like Ebola. Maybe it is Ebola 2.0 or maybe it is something else.
Dr Piot who first identified the virus stated on Spiegel de and Uk Guardian..This virus has already mutated..virii mutations and propagation are in hours versus years and years for us..every human infected..or carrying of which 20 percent of population is anyway..becomes a walking lab

"We're Screwed" Major Garrett open mic briefing U.S.response to Ebola Outbreak Oct 3 2014
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NTSU9w6uNc
White House, senior administration officials hold a briefing on the U.S. government’s response to the Ebola epidemic.
At the end of the briefing not knowing his microphone is switched on, Major Garrett can be heard saying to two other White House officials,
“We are screwed!”
He then goes on to say…
“I am feeling a little fluey, give me kiss.”
The other official pushes him away jokingly and the female official says…
“If the DC result shows positive this could go off the grid.”
We have nothing to fear..cough cough ..except fear itself
I'm deeply frightened that Mr. Obama sent the troops to Africa to combat Ebola.
They can't even stop the spread of STDs.
https://image-cdn.zap2it.com/images/walking-dead-dont-open-dead-inside.jpg
This is not the only aburdity of the day. Drudge is running a democratic banner with "EBOLA" which at first glance identifies Obama with ebola. The NWO is comprised of a bunch of F'n simpletons. Yes! We shall come rejoicing bringing in the thieves.
Instead of senate bean soup in DC, the illegals will be serving Ebola soup.
we are being smurfed by degree qualified people who dont know how to get things done and who are planning for optimistic scenarios. we should be planning for the worst and hoping for the best.

That's the wrong hazard tape.
This is the correct tape for the job.
Whereas this one might be more suitable for external environments.
Scores of Chinese Merchants have already traveled out of Liberia and Sierra Leone creating another contamination vector and destroying the economic fiber of the west African countries. God helps us if it does travel to China.

it would be AWESOME !
The world desperatly needs a cut in population in the order of 60%
I'm more scared of Stormfront's sock puppet armies that accuse Mr. Duncan of purposely spreading it.
Um, our healthcare system is lackey. I was sick with the tummy flu in July and they sent me home from the ER with Zofrin and NO tests. And that 20 minute visit costs $600 including the $28 for the FOUR Zofrin pills.
Which I had to go through hurdles to get Medical to pay for like they said they would. (they have so many hidden rules that it's very shady).
I'm fortunate, I think I had a condition- not a virus and nobody who lived in the house I was living in had any inkling of a stomach bug, thank God.
But who WANTS to make themselves sick? on purpose?
These stormfront racists are inbred without help from a virus. You can call this epidemic a "hoax"? I can personally vouch for the ineptness of the medical fasciliites in the U.S. before and during Obamacare.
BTW. Studies have proven that breastmilk cures ebola. Does that trigger a field trip to Hooters? Free HGH to the fairer sex in the U.S.?
Gawd, this bit of political theater is horrible. i'm glad I don't have kids, they wouldn't be allowed to watch any programming from the U.S. except for sports. I don't think I want to raise kids in this country with crap government, tweakers up your ass out of nowhere, thieving bankers, generational theft, raunchy people and as a consequence raunchy media.
Sorry-the scare tactics used in 9/11 and here are well- not scaring me. IT's giving me the momentum to slap journalists and PR CEOs everywhere with a wet carp with a rock in it's mouth.
THen I bitchslap all of them, virociously shake them and tell them to all get a grip.
I wouldnt' do any of it except to get my frusterations out.
Dear Mr.Durden.
I recommend you that you get some kind of knowledge before you quote certain sources. Público is the most anti government biased piece of shit pamphlet that you can find in spanish press.
The whole situation sucks, and the government are idiots, but Público? Really?
