NYPD Stunner: Cops Exit Ebola Victim Apartment, Dump Gloves, Masks In Sidewalk Trash Can

Tyler Durden's picture




 

If there was one theme from last night's Cuomo/De Blasio Ebola press conference it was 'how everyone has been preparing for months' for Ebola. We can all be reassured, right? Wrong! As The Daily Mail reports (and these stunning photos show), the police officers involved in securing Dr. Spencer tossed their gloves, masks and the caution tape used to block off access to his apartment in a public trash can.

 

 

Not just any trash can, but one on a public street corner...

 

While it is unclear whether the police entered the apartment (which is now locked down and isolated), some are suggesting that for the sake of safety - not to mention public sanity - it would have made sense to discard of these masks and gloves and tape in a biohazard bag.

*  *  *

Seems like not everyone has been preparing for months (since August) for Ebola... no matter, we are all assured by Cuomo's reassuring words that Ebola is very hard to catch (just don't tell the hundreds of healthcare workers who have been infected despit all their precautions).

What is the DRs excuse?

He apparently is highly trained and very bright: DR, with speciality; speaks 5 languages; etc etc.  

Yet he returns from a Ebola hot spot where his job was to work with people and ebola and he decides the first thing he is going to do is go to a place and do activities that will allow him the possibility to infect huge amounts of people.  

Kinda defeats what his career choice but DRs know more than mere mortals and suprizingly enough probably thought he was doing the right thing since he "knew" he did not have the disease.

Idiots.  How do they think THE DOCTOR, got it?  Obviously, he was protected too.  He also must have been aware that other doctors were getting it.  Did they all "break protocals?"  That's ridiculous, not when treating people in that horrible condition. The answer is either it transfers in a way we don't fully understand, or it remains alive on your protective gear a lot longer than anyone imagined.

Yeah, about those protocols and the need to be diligent... If your chemical deactivation of a virus is off by a even 1-minute, even with a correct dilution, you can go from proven 100% SUCCESS to proven 100% FAILURE.

Given that liquid bleach degrades at 20% year, and you have to read both the label and the even smaller and more smudged type of the manufacturing time stamp in order to do the concentration calculation correctly...

What do you think the chances of a .gov troll fucking things up are... when the "born on date" concentration just of popular CLOROX® brand products varies from 12% down to 1%? Is it so easy a rushed, but properly trained, EMT (or a .gov caveman) could accidentally prepare a prepare a 500:1 dilution thinking it is a 10:1 dilution?

On the bright side, the Nigerians have avoided catastrophe so far... so it is possible to get lucky (because I can almost guarantee you their protocols aren't all that).

I think you have to be a lot more than diligent. I also doubt existing protocols are actually correct, verbal diarrhea is not the same as methodically explaining each step, the significance of the step, the consequences of fucking it up, and the most likely way that the monkey reading the manual will inevitably fuck it up.

This is the price for laziness, ignorance and arrogance - of the 0.01% - as well as of the 99.99% - for electing again and again and again and again - the same corrupt, greedy, lying, spying, stealing establishment into power.

Government officials determine about our future. We all know it. But the 99.99% just spent half an hour or so each 2 or 4 or 5 years. For the rest these officials have a free pass as everything else is more important.

The sheeple are still as dumb and lazy and ignorant as they ever were - since Stone age. Nothing changed.

So don't complain about the those who are wrong doing - first complain about yourself for ignoring all the wrong doing day in day out. Once I will meet you on the streets and with pitchforks - you have my ears. Until then the 99.99% is just that ... barking useless meat.

Goin' to the city, got you on my mind,
Country sure is pretty, I'll leave it all behind,
This is my decision, I'm comin' home to stay this time.

'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city.

Breathin' all the clean air, sittin' in the sun,
When I get my train fare, I'll get up and run.

'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city.

I ain't no country boy, I'm just a homesick man.
I'm gonna hit the grit just as fast as I can.

I'll get off on Main Street, step into the crowd,
Sidewalk under my feet, yeah, traffic's good and loud.
When I see my inner city child, I'll be walkin' on a cloud.

'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city...
I'm a fool, (Fool for the city) A fool for the city, (Fool for the city)

There is no way a guy named Craig Spencer went bowling after coming back from a long trip.  His mother didn't let him go bowling because you could catch something.  He doesn't know how to bowl (see Obama).  What to make of the bowling bit?  Are they trying to put bowling alleys out of business, and collect business risk insurance? (el Cheapo Lanes has a epidemic risk clause?) Or, is this a signal that people "not like us - clinging to guns, religion" and bowling - can get it too?

Back in the day Hollywood scripts were really good.  But this is as lame as all Adam Sandler movies.

You think an NYPD cop is going anywhere near an ebola victim's apartment?

These guys set up a perimeter and didnt do much else.

Theyre cops not forensics or health professionals.

That's only partially true.  You are also assuming facts not in evidence.  Perhaps the doctor does not live alone.  Somebody has to do a door to door to alert the other residents.  Maybe he has house pets.  Maybe they retrieved his belongings for him.  Maybe they got his address book or laptop to identify everyone he's been in contact with since he returned from Africa.

 

I think it's not a big leap to assume these dumb asses went into the apartment.

Fair enough but you're also assuming facts not in evidence.

All I'm saying is that I feel confident that the NYPD is gonna cover their ass at all costs in this situation - no matter what their IQ is. 

Imagine someone telling them to pick up this guy's clothes? Cops would probably beat him with a nightstick.

 Suppose this ebola thing continues to follow the worst case scenario of cases doubling every three weeks, when do people start panicking? Do people begin panicking over ebola six months from now when there are over 2000 cases in the U.S. alone or another six months from then when there are over two million?

 

 Clearly TPTB are walking a fine line and choosing their words and release of information about ebola very carefully over their fears of creating a panic. 

 

 How hard, or I should say "easy" is it to "catch" ebola from an infected person who is symtomatic? Pushing an elevator button, touching a door lever, etc. that an infected person has touched then rubbing your eyes, picking your nose or eating something without washing your hands?

The ease or difficulty of contracting the virus is the same as it is for any other virus.  

IF ANYONE touches their orifices during a visit to a public venue, without first washing hands, they are  a candidate for Nature's way of thinning the herd.

Mother Nature tolerates NO stupidity.  She will treat you like the idiot you are if you choose to ignore her well advertised nostrums for preventing yourself from getting sick.

Nose pickers particklerly should be eliminated from the gene pool.  

The Doctor today that has been found to have the virus should be executed.  He could not have contracted that virus unless he did something really really careless ESPECIALLY for an MD, purporting to help people. 

HE forgot the first rule of Medicine:  First do no harm.

Intersting comment by our new ebola czar:

 

 

 

 

“I think the top leadership challenge issue in our world today is how to deal with the continuing, growing population in the world and all the resource demands it places on the world and burgeoning populations in Africa and Asia that lack the resources to have a healthy, happy life,” Klain said.

 I have been reading about how Lionfish have been decimating fish populations in the Atlantic ocean. Scientists say humans introduced Lionfish into the Atlantic about a decade ago, probably by discarding some unwanted Lionfish from an aquarium into the ocean.

"The lionfish invasion is probably the worst environmental disaster the Atlantic will ever face," said Graham Maddocks, president and founder of Ocean Support Foundation, which works with the government and research agencies to help reduce the lionfish population in Bermuda.

 

 What do you think?

Ebola virus in pigs is a respiratory disease and does become airborne, has infected macaques.

Since it is only a respiratory disease in pigs, seems to me if you eat a healthy diet of bacon, you should be immune to the virus.

That's good news, whether it is true or not, it doesn't matter.  I do recommend buying a couple of pounds of bacon, even some Canadian bacon, just to make sure.

Make yourself a BLT for lunch.
