    There seem to be a lot of people here (and on another forum I frequent) that don't have a fear of contracting Ebola.

    and right there is where 99% of your conspiracies fail.
    I want SPECIFICS.
    I want MONEY TRAILS.
    I want REAL and REALISTIC motivations.
    not just some nebulous blanket statements that has zero merit and conspiracy theories that rely on the EXACT SAME SCARE TACTICS THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO "ENLIGHTEN" OTHERS ABOUT.

    When are you finally going to figure that out and stop being an unwitting pawn for the people pulling your strings.
    Have you ever applied your methodology of research to your own vaunted sources?
    Have you ever applied ANY methodology of research and verification to your own vaunted sources?

    You are pretty damn good at competent and verifiable research when it comes to food and nutrition, why do you suck so hard at it when it comes to any type of political topic?

    inquiring minds want to know...

    You must be in business or their engaged accounts. You have to be stopped for the moment by the appropriate police when acting out your deal or contract arrangements. That's what I meant in the earlier statement I made. Fear OR instead panic.

    While the CDC is claiming they don't know how nurse Pham contracted Ebola, anonymous nurses at the hospital in Dallas, have made some very serious complaints.

    Nurses United has reported that Duncan was left in an open area in the Emergency Dept. for hours, exposing other patients.

    They claim that had to use medical tape to close openings in their flimsy protective suits; also that their necks and heads were left exposed to Duncans projectile vomiting and explosive diarrhea.

    They also say that lab samples from Duncan were sent through pneumatic tubes of the hospital, possibly contaminating the whole delivery system for the hospital.

    They say that hazardous waste was allowed to pile up to the ceiling.

    Duncan should've been dealt with correctly. He shouldn't have been sent home the first time he went in. They should've sent him to Nebraska Medical, or Emory Altanta, where there are proper containment units.

    The second nurse that helped Duncan took a flight with 132 other people before she was diagnosed with the illness. That is very bad. There was a homeless man who was transported on the same ambulance after Duncan used it. They cannot find him now. That's also very bad.

    not to mention the nurses taking care of the Ebola patient were also treating other other patients. The CDC wants to blame this on a protocol breach but it doesn't seem like there was a lot of protocol put into place.

    as long as the nurse wasn't showing symptoms at the time of her flight the other passengers should be fine. From what I've read Ebola isn't contagious until the person exhibits symptoms.

    It took the government of Iraq only a few weeks to contain a very contagious form of small pox in a 1950s outbreak. The CDC should be delivering results soon; however, more people might get sick or die before it is over. It is very sad.

    The second nurse wasn't showing symptoms while on the plane, but still it was only a day before she did. That's a fine line.

    No!

    I just heard that idiot from the CDC speak and he slid in there a statement saying that they now know patients are most contagious a couple of days before symptoms show up!

    Let me go see if I can find the text to that briefing.

    Oh, and the stock market is falling, apparently due to the Ebola scare.
