The Idiotic Explanation Why The "Idiot With The Clipboard" Was Unprotected
Phoenix Air has released a statement explaining why the now infamous non-HazMat-wearing 'clipboard man' seen in close proximity to Dallas Ebola patient Amber Vinson (while the rest of the members of staff are fully protected) was unprotected... and it will blow your mind.
Why is "Clipboard Man" not wearing protective gear?
Phoenix Air responds (via ABC News)...
The airline confirmed to ABC News that the man was their medical protocol supervisor who was purposefully not wearing protective gear.
"Our medical professionals in the biohazard suits have limited vision and mobility and it is the protocol supervisor’s job to watch each person carefully and give them verbal directions to insure no close contact protocols are violated," a spokesperson from Phoenix Air told ABC News said.
"There is absolutely no problem with this and in fact insures an even higher level of safety for all involved," the spokesperson said.
* * *
So - in summary - due to the restrictive vision when wearing an Ebola-protective suit, one member of staff must be sacrificed/exposed to ensure no one trips?
And these are who we are supposed to trust?
Here is the full sequence of events involving "clipboard guy" via the Mail:
Is he with the CDC? Both the ambulance company and Emory University Hospital said the unprotected man with the clipboard (center) is not one of their employees - meaning he is likely a CDC employee
A man in plain clothes was seen on the tarmac Wednesday afternoon, as the second Ebola patient (in yellow hazmat suit) boarded a flight to Atlanta, Georgia
The man is seen boarding the flight, after exchanging several objects with the hazmat crew
Clipboard man appears to have flown on the same flight as infected Miss Vinson, as he is seen in footage of her getting into an ambulance at an airport in Atlanta

so this dude from Bangalore showed up with Obola-like symptoms in the ER in CT. He says doctor I feel terrible - fever, headache, blasting both ends, etc.
Doctor says here's what you need to do: Go home, deficate & Urinate into a 5-gallon bucket for a week. Also, throw in a dead fish and some dead mice. Put your face right over the bucket during this week and cover up with a blanket. Breathe DEEPLY for at least a half hour each day. Come back after the week is up. Week goes by.
Mr. Bangalore comes to the doctor's office & says he feels teriffic. Never felt better in my life. I'm Fine! What was wrong with me? Doctor says: "you were homesick."
Listen.
Who was it? Did you catch the guys name? I felt the same way while I was offshore working in Research Triangle Park. I just wanted home. No family, few "REAL" friends, no "GOOD" food. Surrounded by "FILTHY FUCKING AMERICANS".
OH!
The way you behave it's no wonder you have no "real" friends
Grow the fuck up
OH!
Listen knukles.
Am I going to have to prescribe a regiment of Lithium for you too? Let's stop fixating, ok? Enjoy yourself here on The Hedge. Don't get so riled up so easily. Calm man, calm.
Me and OP(zuuma) are just sparing, Fight Club style like always. Easy man. Don't get so emotionally involved. k?
it was Muthuphukkasz Pheelthyann Sikkh

Corpse pickup will begin in 2016!!
No more crappin in the street! No more steppin' over rotted bodies.

Good times!
B.E, I wish the "FILTHY FUCKING AMERICANS" offshore, had done the world a favor and sent you to Davey Jones Locker AKA The Deep Blue Toolchest.
Listen Trash.
ISIL has a plan for your "FILTHY FUCKING" offshore boys and girls.
mmmuuuuHahahahahahahahahahahahah!
Careful where you travel. ok gov trolls?
B.E. I don't need to be careful where I travel, just smart and prepared. You see, I, as most offshore workers, came to terms with my/our own mortality many years ago. Peeps that have not, maybe should fear us.
Listen.
You may think that you are prepared, but those who do most often "ARE NOT". I for one have no illusion of preparedness. As far as smart goes I highly doubt it, tough guy. You have "NO" idea who you are fucking with, but I can change that for you.
Hee Hee Hee! Funny stuff! ISIL as a threat offshore? Did they gain the Maritime skills swimming in sand, or Camelshit?
ISIL includes scum from many countries, including Somalia. They take their piracy well out into the Indian ocean.
History lesson, muslim pirates (Barbary Coast) used to raid US and European shipping (and coastal areas) through the 18th and into the 19th century. The US government used to pay them tribute not to attack US ships and then they changed their policy and marines were sent in. Leathernecks refer to the leather collar the marines wore to protect against getting their throats slit. If they send boots on the ground now to confront ISIL then they better have blunt knife beheading proof collars.
effendi, thanks, I've done a bit of studying on that history as well.
I was having some fun with BangmoreEquus. (yeah, I know I'm

"I felt the same way while I was offshore working in Research Triangle Park. I just wanted home. No family, few "REAL" friends, no "GOOD" food. Surrounded by "FILTHY FUCKING AMERICANS"."
Come back here now, there are literally dozens of Indian joints here with fantastic Indian food. Big ass temple in Cary (here for a while) and more Indians than you can shake a stick at. I dropped off a co-worker at that temple and it had everything but elephants running around.

Like I said earlier, these events were planned.
Clipboard man will have had the chance to go somewhere to spread the Ebola virus he incubated for mere minutes to another group of unsuspecting unprotected sheeps. We will be getting stories like these from today onwards like later it is revealed that the co-pilot in the plane didnt wear a hazmat because some protocol says only the captain should wear TWO suits just in case...same new ridiculous shit everyday.
As for the people in charge of this crisis, being morons, well what do you expect when the people in charge of this ENTIRE COUNTRY are morons. Or maybe like I said, they want things to unfold the way it has so far, which makes these fuckers worse than morons.
There are no more small crises.
They LET things spiral out of control, wait for the public to clamor for BIG POPPA to save the day, and then it'll be fullblown police state, travel restrictions, mandatory vaccinations (good luck with that!), there will be Wednesday Night Football, College athletes will start getting paid... Cats and dogs living together, possibly?
Or maybe like I said, they want things to unfold the way it has so far, which makes these fuckers worse than morons.
By design, not chance.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the historic American nation, those of you who have not been mesmerized by the televitz and the rest of the controlled media and who have survived the propaganda of an education, behold your Enemy has got you on the ropes now. Whilst so many of the "Greatest Generation" died for the Enemy, to ensure their triumph over YOU, you see they BELIEVED what the controlled press told them, what the movies showed them, what the magazines told them, and so they went off to remove the enemy of their own Enemy.
If they could see what now has happened I wonder if they would have been so eager to attack their brothers.
Divided,
I do not agree. Nobody would endanger himself consciously. The clipboard man obviously IS such an idiot.
I think the explanation is simple and can be observed everywhere. Remember what happened when the generation of Wernher von Braun retired?
Politics follows biology.
Banana populace turns the state into a banana republic and elects banana presidents.
Banana populace confuses change with progress.
Politics follows biology.
Doyou really think clipboard man intentionally exposed himself to spead the disease? More likely they think there is no risk and are doing it as a training exercise. Stupid but not crazy evil.
If they really wanted to spread Ebola they would fly in some corpses from Africa, dissect them and finely add them to steak tartare, sashimi and luncheon meat. So whats on the school lunch menu?
I think I've got it. Ebola goggles are sort of like beer goggles yeah? I need supervisor bro to accompany me to the pub next time I'm keen for a big night out.
Good job, man. Gimme five!
I can haz hazmat?
I sure hope that they do a better job of recycling hazmat suits than Indians (dot, not feather kind) do recycling condoms, just turning them inside out.
I can see clippy now saying, "No no no! You are not doing that right! What is wrong with you? Who told you you could do that?"
The sad fact is this: People who can not help, will at least do their best to get in the way.
Please photoshop a cape, hood and sickle on this guy ... would be hillarious.
Will someone PLEASE contact Medecins Sans Frontieres for instructions on how to deal with this ebola situation?
So who's watching the safety supervisor?
We are.
The govt has so many drones....get one of them to do the dirty job....oh wait, there is no spare drones left...they have all been deployed to fight ISIS and to spy on homegrown terrorists.
Who's watching Pressure Washer Man?
We did.
I really don't think that anyone else is presently...if they are smart.
They'd have isolated themselves from him after they watched that episode. They'd be giving him a wide berth.
Then we really are in big trouble!
Yeah? What gave you the clue to that? Clipboard Man?
It is even worse...Check out this story...
http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-1180433
He's probably a Certified Clipboard Professional. No worries!
Mrs. SWR and I were just last night discussing the obvious need for supervision, for someone whose only involvement in the caregiving process is to monitor and ensure that protocols are followed. This is standard practice in nuke industry radiological work, or it was when I was doing it.
Hostpitals are neither staffed nor equipped (nor funded, for that matter) for such activity. Entering and exiting a contaminated area in a controlled, safe and repeatable manner requires a lot of dedicated space, space for the staging of materials to be brought into the area, space for suiting, space for unsuiting, space for deconning, areas for disposal of contaminated waste (receptacles), ....there are NO hosipitals which have this large amount of space inside them, and many do not have it OUTSIDE them other than in parking lots, which means tents (rain, snow, etc), controlled (filtered) airflow areas, etc.
All of this is doable, and known. It's no fucking secret, and does not require rocket science. What is required is
a) fire the fucking bean counters who have taken over US Healthcare
b) hire people who know how to do this shit, and right now. Fund them adequately. Make sure they do not see nurses as disposable resources to be carelessly thrown at the problem in order to save some craven politician's ass.
Hospitals which are treating ebola patients will have plenty of parking space available anyway, as no paying patient in his or her right mind would go to a hospital where they are treating ebola victims, given the current state of affairs.
Really is a great example...
Everything run by MBAs and Lawyers. People with the real skills have been turned into commodities.
Don't forget the bureaucrats and bankers.
...who are simply MBAs and lawyers who have lost even a trace attachment to ethics.
not a lot of ethics among the mercs, either.
Who is going to do the hiring and firing? The same people that have been doing it or would you hire someone else to do that? Who would hire that person, the Golfer?
Well, the bean counters have completely infiltrated the ranks of hospital administration, and the craven politicians have absolutely no clue what to do, so my prognosis is not good.
ergo, SAVE YOURSELF
The politicians know exactly what to do -- take the money and run.
Some groups are going to make some serious money off this deal, but the middle class isn't one of them. They'll get to pay for it with much higher taxes, medical costs and health insurance premiums.
Good Summation.
I was a hospital design architect for many years.
Evenually went on staff at a Hospital in Oakland CA.
Effing disaster.
Wiki Search "Hospital Acquired Infection"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospital-acquired_infection
Trained medical staff, (First do no harm) kill nearly 300% more people from "secondary infection" then from auto accidents, (99k vs. 36k) and 800% more than the total number of murders (12k)
And They know it. They even have an "infection control nurse" - a powerless figurehead, who has an office in a little building outside the hospital, and knows her job is to keep her head down and make no waves.
But to try to implement even a change like anti microbial touch surfaces on a new hospital tower with a budget impact of less than 1% was nigh IMPOSSIBLE.
The technology and products are readiliy avaialbe; for example:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimicrobial_copper-alloy_touch_surfaces
I fought for this, LOST, Lost in FLAMES took the issue as high as I had access.
They hired my replacement and started to use me to train her.
I left the job, and the entire state.
Now I do bomb shelters, and related work.
Let's not forget that these same hospitals that we are expecting to deal effectively with Ebola kill 75-100,000 people a year with hospital-acquired infections caused by bugs that are a LOT less dangerous than our little ebolabuddy. The people in these hospitals are all very aware of what it takes to avoid killing patients through infection, but the patients die like flies anyway.
So why should we expect these same hospital workers to be any more caring or intelligent around ebola? Maybe the fact that it will kill them as well as the patient will change some of their behavior, but change it 100%? Why am I feeling doubtful about that?
Reminds me of a "sheep cyclone". No leader, just follow the ass in front of you.

I have a new rule... Here's the old rule first...
Never trust anyone driving a car with ANYTHING hanging and/or swinging from their rear-view mirror, they don't see you... they could kill you... they are stupid... (sorry mom)
New rule...
Never let anyone driving a car with ANYTHING hanging and/or swinging from their rear-view mirror be an Ebola nurse... they don't see you... they could kill you... they are stupid... (thanks mom - good call)
On the other hand... That may be what they look for, when they recruit people willing to go into an isolation room with an Ebola patient... Not distracted by any obvious hazards...
when in doubt refer to the Bible
see Exodus 12
CDC should see the Bible for quarantine:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=numbers+5%3A1-4&version=CJB
That backwards book written for a bunch of backwards people whom believed in a magic man in the sky?
The CDC is into Modern Science which is where you need to place your faith, confidence and trust.
Just what did they know? I mean they even forbade eating Bat and Monkey.

PS. I zoomed in on the clipboard and just saw a list of names.
They also seemed to make false assumptions about how the virus is transmitted, which is a horrible mistake in judgement. With a virus with such a high mortality rate its much better to be agressive with personal protection than the other way around. Let's hope it's not too late for the officials in charge to get the situation under control.

Holy shit! EVERYONE knows you never go full retard
Look up "full retard" in the ZH dictionary, and you'll find this picture there.
I keep trying to tell people that just because they are in charge it does not mean they are not idiots.
But who would put idiots in charge?
Other idiots.
It's why they are working in the public sector. It attracts them like flies to a corpse.
It isn't limited to the public sector, y'know.
But it's rampant there, no?
not to rag on the sick nurse, but why did it not occur to her that after treating "typoid tyrone" that maybe it would be a bad idea to get on a flight, go shopping and meet her friends and loved ones? she is a trained nurse correct? regardless if she was wearing the correct containment suit or not, she should know better than to possibly spread the virus without knowing for sure if she was exposed or not!
Here's why, true story........
When my 2nd child was being born, we had great nurses, we loved them, they really gave a shit and we appreciated them, but before we checked out, we were talking to two of them and they mentioned that they were worried about their 8 and 10 years old daughters, because they were "developing" way to soon. They had been to doctors and specialist (because their coverage was so good i guess) and no one could tell them anything but maybe they should try glutten free diets and some other unreal shit!!
Finally I look over at them and say, are you giving them regular milk? Both look confused and say yes, why?
Because I explained, there are unreal amounts of growth hormones and god knows what else in non organic milk? One nurse goes WHAT???, what are you talking about. My wife and I just looked stunned at her now! So I continue on and tell them to get that regular pasturized garbage out of their house immediately and really they should try to find Raw milk........yada yada, needless to say, both looked more confused and then one mentioned it was to expensive, etc etc
We just gave them a hug and said good luck!
Moral of the story, nurses might be great and caring people, but their just as fucking brainwashed by this insane asylum society we live in, as the next person on the street! Thinking they aren't, might get you ebola these days!
As if further evidence was needed, but another thing to consider: They regularly prescribe poisonous psychotropics to children, teens, and adults. Every prescribing psych nurse is guilty of doing this (and the very fact that we have nurses prescribing psych meds due to an apparent insufficient supply of prescribers should give everyone a lot of pause).
Now consider that a pretty good chunk of psych docs are fully aware that they are prescribing poison, and do it anyways.
So, you have a choice between ignorant or evil.

We need to just give up. Bottle Ebola and sell it in WallMart

Clipboard dude was probably supposed to be off image (screen) and was just confused. Screen play for fear driven blackmail is a whole lot more likely!
Is ClipBoard Man from a temp agency? If CB Man fails to show up the next day, the agency justs sends another temp out.
complete morons CAUSED this "crisis".
This whole thing is looking more and more like a drill. Not that a drill to see where the weak areas are in planning, equipment, facilities etc, is a bad thing. My fear is not CONTAGIONOIA, but given that so many 'drills' have gone live (911, Sandy Hook, 7/7, Bosten etc), anything could happen...
If this is 'CDC guy', he either knows it's a drill, or the same profs who invented the 'virus' also engineered the antidote. And he's one of the club that Carlin described...or at least has 'insider knowledge'.

Oh, wait... doesn't confidence have something to do with criminal fraud as in confidence game?
Relax. The guy will be just fine.
You must have heard...ebola is racist [per multiple MSM outlets/mouthpieces].
The guy is caucasian. Clearly he has nothing to worry about from the racist ebola virus.
Clipboard guy is from the CDC and has already been given the (real) vaccine. Duh.

As long as Ebola is not airborne; the protocol used is OK. So look at this as a test as to whether the disease is airborne.

Like I've been saying for a while now - quarantine the State of Texas before its too late, the volume of potential ebola carriers coming across the state line far exceeds the 150 or so per day coming from West Africa, and even with the most bloated .gov budget in the world- there simply isn't the manpower to either provide care or do high volume manual contact tracing if multiple cases start slipping across and spreading.
It would fill up with mex'cans like a balloon!

If you like your Ebola, you can keep your Ebolaits all fake thats why... he wasnt supposed to be in the propaganda PHOTO OP
Tend to agree. Now I am not saying ebola is fake because it is very real. I believe its to instill fear and force new laws that remove more of our freedoms. The most comical comments are people actually believing they can protect themselves from an invisible enemy like ebola. Ask the nurse wearing all the hazmat gear how that protecting thingy went.
...and then the CDC telling her it's ok to fly...
I tend to agree that it was a manufactured photo op with a glaring error.
Ebola is real, but media outlets need images, real or concocted.
It's "ebola-like" and yes, it is real... but it is not Ebola. It's a synthesized virus far superior (in a bad way) than Ebola. It was intentionally released in population centers in West Africa... engineered to be nearly impossible to combat. Blatantly obvious the CDC our government and other evil statist elite want this to spread to the US. They need billions of poeple to die off in order to take over and rule the world the way they have planned for decades.
Peter Principle proof that our supervisors has risen above their level of incompetence.

I get bugged more than once a month about being a prepper. I don't think I'm paranoid, I just have no faith in any complex systems created by people. I see it first hand every day in my job in IT. These systems that we depend on for life and death across every industry I've seen are so fragile.
So yeah one more example above about why I prep. Its so I can sleep at night. Ignorance is bliss and unfortunately, I'm not ignorant.
Well put +1
As HH has said though, it's always good to exercise paranoia.
You have to be able to think of the worst outcome to be able to prepare for it.
freedogger, is it wise? first, to have people know you are a prepper, and, second, to allow people to make fun of it, and so damaging your creds as someone not to trifle with?
Generally, no, but I'm refering to people I really care about, not joe public. My brother is the worst and he has a big mouth, so I've toned down what I say to him. He does visit though and has seen our storage room. My wife has gradually turned from a sheep to a more concerned prepper than me...
'prepper'
What should we typical subdivision dwelling peeps be picking up from Wal-Mart over the next few days?
If you're having to pick up now it could be too late.
Think of it as if SHTF right now. What would you need to survive for a week, month, or year.
There is no way to gauge the outcome or how long it will be. You just have to work on short term goals( bottle water, food, ect) first then more towards longer terms (growing your own food, backup water storage, ect)
K, thanks.
I've already got a month + of water/food supplies.
Then again with every scenario the outcome could be different.
What if this goes longer than a month, are you prepared to leave your house if there is martial law, a total outbreak, or civil unrest.
What if it's not just ebola.
What if there is also a financial collapse like we are seeing with the market already?
Where there is now martial law and a civil unrest.
The possibilities are endless on what 'could' happen and unrealistic to prepare for them all. You have to gauge what you think could happen and how you are capable to react if something does.

If you've got the "Cheetos, bacon, beer, tabloids, and some of that macaroni salad from the deli" you probably won't have to pay for the "Ho Ho's".
.
Prepping is more then just getting an extra couple cans of beans and a case of water bottles. It's a strategy on how you would react to various situations such as sheltering in place or bugging out. Not all preps will cover you, but as Patton said: "It's not the plan, its the planning."
Not all preps will cover you,...

Of course that's a last resort and we plan to work from home and take the kids out of school for a 30 day period and then re-evaluate after that if cases show up in our province (state).
Maineprepper on youtube has a nice concentric circle strategy.. You can prep as far as you feel comfortable. a week, a month. Longer.
Look, everyone "prepares". They just don't do it consciously or consistently and usually don't understand their dependencies.

What an absurd post. Fragile IT systems? Your company needs a few $500 an hour IBM consultants to really F**k things up. They will fix everything.

Oh, another layer of management there to "add value to a process." Well yes, then -- excellent. Please go about checking your boxes.
Cipboard Man is probably a contractor so no problem.
Wait till you find out that Water spray man is just outside of view spraying the tarmak with high pressure water while wearing his normal clothes without protection. He is becoming an Ebola spraying specialist.
Same contracting firm, plus he gets travel money too.
He probably just had another form for the patient to sign. It's easy to overlook one in the excitement. Office personnel don't get hazmat suits.
That dude had a clipboard, though, to use as a shield against projectile vomit, diarrhea, sputum, blood & loogies.
That clipboard might be kosher so he should be ok. Where the fuck is pressure washer man? That had to generate laughter in African jungles.
In an odd way, this is pretty embarassing, with all the "US healthcare is #1" bullshit. It's safe to say that's out the window.
Listen.
Makes sense to me. You don't want anyone to fall with those party boots on the risk is high. He'll use the clipboard to brace them so there will be no human-human contact.
It's well thought out, actually.
