Homeland Security Orders Agents To Monitor All Travelers To US For "General Signs Of Illness"
- *ENHANCED EBOLA SCREENINGS TO START AT JFK FIRST: CNN
Following CDC Director Frieden's warning yesterday, the AP reports, US Homeland Security has unveiled additional more stringent monitoring of all travelers to the US for the Ebola virus:
- *U.S. AIRPORTS TO TAKE TEMPS OF TRAVELERS FROM W. AFRICA: WPOST
- *FIVE OF BUSIEST U.S. AIRPORTS TO TAKE TEMPERATURES, POST SAYS
The Homeland Security Department has ordered agents at airports and other ports of entry to observe everyone coming into the United States for potential signs of Ebola infection.
Homeland Security Deputy Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas says Customs and Border Protection agents are also handing out factsheets to travelers with details of what symptoms to look for and directions to call a doctor if they become sick within 21 days.
Mayorkas did not elaborate on how they would observe people or say when the new measures would begin.
He said agents would observe all travelers for "general signs of illness" at the points of entry. He spoke at an airport security conference in Northern Virginia on Wednesday.
The Obama administration has wrestled in recent weeks with what it can do effectively to detect arriving passengers who may be carrying the disease since many of them may not be symptomatic when they arrive.

As The Washington Post reports,
Travelers originating in West African countries will be given questionnaires and have their temperatures taken at these U.S. airports, a federal official said Wednesday.
The heightened screening measures will be rolled out as soon as possible, the official said, perhaps as soon as this weekend. But the details of exactly how this would be implemented remain unclear, with the details under discussion at the White House and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
So far, the screening will occur at five key hubs: John F. Kennedy International Airport, Washington Dulles International Airport, O’Hare International Airport, Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport.

TSA Agent: If you cough, we kill you ... simple as that!
...TSA should walk Obama through Airport Security....X Ray's will show He is not American.
I repeat there has never been a better time to make the TSA grab your balls while you cough all over them. This is what they wanted.
The TSA, has failed every test that was done with agents sneaking through a simulated "bomb". But have no fear they will get this one right. TSA is one giant waste of money.
Depends on your perspective.
I believe the TSA is a liability shield for the airlines and a conditioning tool for Americans to accept the police state. Viewed as such, they are a rousing success.
African looking?
World traveler?
Sweaty?
Delirious?
Quarantine.
Signs and symptoms of flu
People who have the flu often feel some or all of these signs and symptoms:
Symptoms of Ebola include
Are they going to quarantine everyone with flu symptoms?
You forgot....and a compulsive urge to golf
This is going to be as effective as asking a would-be bomber if he packed his own luggage, or if anyone gave him anything to take onto the plane. Honor system right? With 3 weeks of incubation time, this is ridiculous...
Instead of prohibiting flights letting everyone in and looking for signs of illness.
OMG, have we (the West) been turned into banana republics.
They use new gloves for everyone right?
lulz.
Boy would I ever cut in line ahead of the sweaty African in the grope line.
(not that you will find me in an airport, the next time I fly I will be in a pine box with a Fed Ex sticker on it)
pods
Listen Pods.
TSA just licks the gloves clean after use. This is the holy grail for TSA. Now they can slip thermometer up American "AND" African ass to take temp. "Mmmmm smells so good" says TSA g-man.
"Dennis Hopper/Blue Velvet style"
Like everything else these days this is complete bullshit.
Are they doing the same at the F'ing BORDER...? No, this is for show, to appear that they care.
Let me see if I have this right. We are asking people who could not get a job before the TSA was created, and whose idea of protecting us from terrorists is to accidently spill a wheelchair-bound grandmother's colostomy bag, to serve as infectious disease experts as well? Whose brilliant idea was this?
One big part they're missing is that they are only focusing on the front-side of the infection. Let's say somebody who manages to survive an Ebola infection later travels. They can still be infectious yet show no symptoms for 60 days or more.
TSA will be trained to take your temperature by sticking their fingers up your ass.
Just the tip.
It begins
Actions speak louder than words.
CPB should already be "observing" everyone crossing the US border. Moreover, when they finally see something, IS CPB going to say something, or do something, and if so, what, and under what circumstances?
Observing all travelers for "general signs of illness" at the points of entry would include the points of entry in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. If they start playing games with double standards and selective enforcement, then citizens need grab some pitchforks, torches and rope and pay a visit to Jeh Johnson and his family a visit in the dead of night... after all, it's for the children, and the execution of US citizens without a trial by jury is now justifiable in defense of the Homeland.
The concept of open society is a perversion in human civilization. Such societies lose their reproduction capabilities and cannot survive.
It's theoretically possible that the established insanity of this Marxist ideology one day will be corrected by nature - for example by something like a spreading virus.
An open society would be very possible given the right circumstances. But in a time where people dress up in costumes and steal money from those who produce only to give it away to those who don't, it is indeed an ingredient for disaster. As a human being, the ability to travel anywhere on this planet you have the means and desire to should not be a radical idea. The caveat there, is that you should not expect the people native to the area you are traaveling to give you anything.

Good job HH.
And discouraging airtravel.
Peak Oil Bitchezz!
2008, ABQ:
TSA Agent: "Is that a Ron Paul button on your bag?"
Me: "Yes, it is."
TSA Agent: "Good for you. GOOD for you."
Crank up the TSA x-ray machine to full and fry everything that comes through the airport. It's the only way to be sure.
Especially Swedish grandmothers...
DOUBLE check THOSE muthas!
Run them through till they glow!
Where are the MIB when you need them?
X-Rays will show he is from Andromeda.
Imagine being an International TSA Agent. Nice job. How many people you touch today? Oh and the radiation from those machines...
How do we put a Ferguson spin on this?
Hands Up!
Don't Puke!
No worries, mate. TSA is imminently qualified to diagnose "eboly" virus infected people.
Oh sure, monitoring and a questionnaire will stop the inflow of the virus.
Tragic hubris.
And candy-stripe tape. Don't forget that!
"...monitoring and a questionnaire..."??!!!!
What???? You mean filghts from West Africa are still being allowed to enter this country wiith no 21 day layover delay??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Could this be part of that Agenda 21 thing?
Blood flying out of your ass will be a dead give away.
And a sign that will only be noticed 20% of the time by those ever-vigilant, always sober, and highly-intelligent TSA screeners.
"observe all travelers for "general signs of illness" at the points of entry"
ooh, can't wait for The Daily Show to do a skit ...
Is dropping dead a sign of illness?
Great question!! Yes it is. We will have to mark that one for the FAQs.
That's only covered under the Obamacare Bronze plan.
The Silver plan comes with a year's supply of condoms and a free latte when you get Ebola.
The Gold plan includes everything the Silver plan covers plus you get to have Michelle Obama give you a personally guided tour of the White House and meet and shake hands with all the foreign dignitaries at the next State dinner.
What's the old joke? If she coughs, don't fuck her.
You'd have to have a mental illness to willingly subject yourself to the dehumanzing procedures of Homoland Security.
That's Genderism. Please report to the nearest Federal Ebola Management Area for your injection.
At least our governemnt was smart enough to provide medical training, along with all those bullets, to every Homeland Security agent or this would just seem like more government stupidity.
What a waste all around. Looking for illness today honey.
90% of people will die at some point in their life
The other 10% die at some point in the life of someone they know.
On a related note, the CDC will close the barn door. Sources say the cows have indeed left, but there is no reason not to close the aforementioned door.
You grab my nuts and I cough. That's the deal, right?
Whoreland security, here to fuck you, kill you and steal your money
How about banning anyone with a West African passport for starters?
Well, that would be rayciss and less inconvenient so no
Don't worry, it's contained with zero chance of transmission during flights..... did you hear me? I said zero chance! Now get off the plane and go get your free anal probe bitchez!
You will respect my authority!

Thomas Eric Duncan dead (Dallas patient).
KWN reporting Dallas patient Eric Duncan has reanimated and eaten several doctors already.
...I knew the CDC was hiding something!
Fonz, that reply of yours is why everyone thinks you're a douche. It was only 1, and a nurse, not a doctor. And WND broke the story, first.
I have a penchant for exaggeration. Guilty
That explains why they are still saying he's alive on the radio news report I just heard.
Are they fast (28 Days, World War Z), medium (Walking Dead), or slow (Night of the Living Dead) zombies? It makes a difference as to tactics.
As we speak Troma is making the movie. Soon at a theater near you.
"Re-Animator III"
And SyFy is finishing production of Zombienado.
shtf?
Thanks for the update ebworthen. Comes as no surprise. They couldn't let him live, really, seeing as how every symptomatic West African would be hopping a flight to the USSA for a cure.
I'm still waiting on the proverbial pins and needles to see how many people that fuckwit infected.
"Can I feel you up with my filthy nitrile gloves?"
Just when we needed an excuse to monitor Americans more closely http://newamerica-now.blogspot.com/2014/02/beyond-collapse.html
I'm going to have so much fun 'sneezing' on fascists and watching them squirm...
They wanted the job, they got it!
I see the TSA being a prime vector for virus transmission if this does turn into a pandemic. They have no trouble intimately examining Granny's colostomy bag. They get pleasure from the power to grope your wife's tits. I secretly suspect that most of them like to fondle your junk. They inspect bottles of expressed breast milk like it is explosive. They touch all these bodily-fluid excreting and containing things and then move onto the next victi---uh, passenger. And I lay odds they don't change gloves in between passengers. This is sort of like a lice epidemic in an elementary school, where the nurse combs over your head carefully with a tongue depressor, and then uses the same tongue depressor to check the next 20 kids in line.
This is all beginning to look a lot like trying to cork a volcano..... Gesundheit..
The TSA finally gets their just desserts bitchez! Suck on that ebola TSA. Oh, and sniff my shoes too.
So, the front line "agents", the bloated TSA, are now going to screen travelers for illness? Gee, that 13.00 an hour looks a little iffy...but, fuck it, TSA is fat and lazy and this will cull the herd?
Next step: mandatory 21-day quarentine for ill arrivees from any country. All that's needed for this is about five more cases in the U.S. And those surely are on their way.
We used to have that.
It was called Ellis Island.
Yeah, because having a gun and a badge makes you into a competent health worker...
Or we could simply quarantine travellers from infected nations, and those who travel with them...
Too much reliance on Penicillin and its decendants makes Barry and his ilk forget how to deal with inconvenient epidemiological realities, and results in Barry being a sick boy... After all, they are the 'Master's of the Universe' and have been selling the idea that man had advanced so far that we can and do control the very weather of the 3d rock. What is a measly virus next to that???
WHAT NONSENSICAL HUBRIS.
It is medical hubris that will make Ebola a permanent illegal alien, and eventual native resident of the Western Hemisphere.
Pride goes before the fall.
Welcome to the Ebolacalypse.
Barry wants Ebola in the US, so he can declare martial law for you and President for life for himself.

"Bend over; I need to take your temperature."
Doesn't the TSA already do that?
I dunno, I haven't flown with the Wright Brothers in a while.
The last ding I want is to be locked in the same room with a other passemger who has ebola, just because I sneeze at the airport
Ask them how much cash they have on them.

Hopefully this starts spreading among DHS goons as they fondle people. I would not consider air travel for the next three months under any circumstances.
Looks like the airline's gravy the past few years is about to come to an end as people avoid flying and TSA agents get "blue flu"
Who wants to be the next guy in that same room.....sorry not me....
Frisking people spreads Ebola.
I got nuthin...
During my time getting felt up by TSA. What happens if I blow a diarrhea load onto their cute blue outfit?
I could claim it was bad airline paid food service. My fever could of resulted to bad lettuce.
Those CDC Ebola Patient numbers are surly getting squirrelly.
you would be arrested for manslaughter and terrorism

good times, good times
Indeed
Thomas Duncan didn't fly into the US from Africa. He flew in from Brussels. Border Patrol should look at passport nationality and visa stamps from all foreigner travelers coming from the east.
You must stop exposing our US government loopholes in creating new fear terrorist diversions.
Central banking industry is having a hard time regaining international trust.
/sarc
I want the TSA non ebola line, please.
Oh and while you are at it, could you upgrade me to the Non ebola class?
>DING DING< In non-ebola class, we will be serving CDC-approved fruitbat kabobs with a zesty guano dipping sauce.
When teddy brought in 25MM laborers to ellis island from overseas the public health superceded private health. Back then science was little more than opinion and many families were separated as some were allowed through and others sent back home on the boat they came on. This is nothing new to America. The term "idiot" originated from an ellis island doctor and if you were deemed one it was good enough to get sent home.
well I guess our normal billions spent on HLS don't include this screening...only screening for intoxication...right got it...
I'd bet Cherkoff just bought a comany that makes the machine to pick up passengers with Ebola.
"The Homeland Security Department has ordered agents at airports and other ports of entry to observe everyone coming into the United States for potential signs of Ebola infection."
...except for the wide-open US/Mexico border.
The Marx Brothers couldn't make this shit up.
abc, cbs, msnbc nbc etc etc will have you stricken from the interent if you insist on spewing the unholy truth. Lets talk about mochelles favorite colour please
"Mayorkas did not elaborate on how they would observe people ... "
Rectally of course
WTF is "General Signs Of Illness"?! How can security agents "monitor" sick people?? Does it mean anyone coughing will be promptly isolated? And who will do that then? The security agents? I wonder how those security agents are feeling about this new "task"...
only white passengers please as monitoring Blacks would be racist don't ya know
Sure sure...but all those with leprosy are let in. All those with tuberculosis are let in. All those with Aids are let in. Odd isn't it...like deliberate self-destruction is the new "USA way!"
Leprosy, Tuberculosis, and AIDS, aren't as suitable as fake Ebola, Fake Influenza, er, I mean Ebola, can be stopped with the new vaccination that the MSM are gearing up to announce, I hope we can be the first guinea pigs to try Big Pharmas devious "solution" to this shakedown, I mean outbreak.
Obama has messed this Ebola crisis up even beyond his normal clueless self. When will his removal from office begin because it is clear that at best he is not fit for the office of president? We don't even want to know why he does the things he does any longer. Just remove him please.
I am no longer shocked at how stupid the government is. Unless it is stupid and politically correct you do not implement.
I'm sorry, this is fucking retarded. Here's what you do:
Any non-citizen traveler with entry/exit stamps from west africa within the last 2 months: deny entry
Increase visa processing times to no sooner than 30 days
No visa processing for any west african passports
Any airline which fails to comply is treated the same as one which fails to verify a valid visa on boarding plus a $1m fine
Any nation which does not enact similar travel restrictions is liable for all costs involved in detainment and sending said traveler back
Any airline operating in west africa is to cease services immediately or be locked out of the market until the outbreak is contained.
All airlines must provide N95 face masks.
This is called quarantine, it's really fucking simple. Don't let the fucking sick people in and make the penalties for violating quarantine VERY fucking harsh. Consider all spreading of this shit via airtravel to be willfull and criminal.
I thought profiling was illegal.
hiccoughs. stupid hiccoughs. telltale sign.
I keep wondering why we are not yet being inundated by MSM with the type of ebola images that would cause full fledged panic and horror. Certainly intense fear would be useful in many ways. Maybe they are waiting for ebola to get thoroughly entrenched first. That way they don't have to deal with the peasants putting a kink in their plans when people Freak the F*ck out.
Or maybe the whole outbreak is bullshit. Either way, let no crisis (real or simulated) go to waste.
