Real active human ebola is present in North Americac

[oneoff]

Incubation period is up to three weeks so doubling cases in a month maybe isn't real good .

Numbers aren't real shocking when going from deaths of 128 to 256 or even 1024 to 2048.. But now we are maybe the 4096 or 9182 "steps" of those who have contracted this disease (with past cases including survivors no doubt at least a few thousand more.) Those figures reach millions or billions when left unchecked (and in mere handfuls of itinerations).

As cotten will confirm; the one undisputable fact is that if the next doubling does occur (and it surely will and no doubt is still hidden in an incubation period that is ticking away at this very moment).........the one sure thing is that at the moment of that last doubling is completed........more people were infected in that doubling period of about one month than had been infected in all the previous time since that ebola strain was first detected and tracked.


And that needs to be scary shit; for everyone. Its the perfect example of how doubling can become a run away; and will be become a runaway if controls aren't effective.

And How Stupid is this Con gov't to stop refugees from receiving Health care ??? WTF are they thinking?

[mustardman]

I'm not real concerned about it hitting us to hard...yet but i do think we could see a major tragedy,the spin off effects will be interesting,it will be horrible to watch.

Hey mussy, why don't we just pay for the whole world's health care while we are at it. I'm sure you have the money. Being selective on who gets health care ie. true refugees vs those that hopped on a boat to get here and bypassed the system or those that lied to get in the country or those that are criminals do not qualify for my money.

Cheaper to keep them healthy than keep them sick and spreading disease

So let's see Isis wants to kill us and will use suicidal tactics to do it. So how difficult would it be for them to get infected with all kinds of crap and spread it around here? What's this new thing with kids in Alberta?

Ebola infected suicide terrorist army, novel idea riders.

[sawfly]

just thinking we talk about the bravery
of various folks.
like soldiers, police , fire fighters
etc.

those health care workers in the thick of it over there.
have to be the bravest souls on the planet.
260 some out of 320 workers that have contracted it are dead

[farmgal71]

I am concerned but we need to keep living.

I do hope the researchers can find ways to improve the treatment against this terrible sickness.

Let's pray that they can stop the spread of ebola in texas.

[riders2010]

It's not a novel idea at all , we've heard in the past concerns of bioterrorism in agriculture. And yet we seem to not be as concerned about direct person to person disease spread????Yet we as a country seem to think that when us and Canadian troops pulled out of Iraq that the war was over?? Lol how stupid we just jacked up the radicles is all we did. And now that we joined the bombing campaign Isis isn t hiding it they publicly stated canada as on their hit list. they re not going to enter canada with a sticker on their forehead saying I m here to kill you. They also are already here, and what industries are they mainly in?
But then again we do have to keep the oil boom going and need all those workers don t we? They re not stupid all that crap you see on tv is coming here and we invited it in. Jmo

Colonel Mustard - Suggest we quarantine those that are in illegally and ship them back ASAP if they don't meet certain minimum standards. I have no problem with paying for health benefits if they are good people. As opposed to today's process where they are all of them living with the population for 10 years until we can legally deport someone that never was legally here. Isn't that ironic that we have to go through the legal system to deport someone that never used the legal system to get here.

Sorry, I hit submit before finishing so the thread won't make much sense....lol....much like most of what I say.
