You are clueless as to what "could have" occurred in the time frame that this guy has been sick.

Do you know that the WHO is now saying 41 days is the time Ebola can be dormant? So the CDC's 21 day quarantine maybe wrong by a factor of 2x.

If the WHO is correct, do you think it is possible that Duncan's family members who just came out of a 21 day quarantine could still be infected and don't know it, haven't developed symptoms yet?

You think that could be a possibility?

A meteorite hitting the planet and killing us all is possible, just not probable , kinda like your fear mongering.

You said the doctor "could not" have infected others.

You are obviously wrong because the girlfriend and one other are now in quarantine. So those, more knowledge than your own stupid self, disagree with you.

You obviously don't know what fear monger is. I just want the facts to be accurate and the policy to be correct.

You are wrong on the facts - the NY doctor could have infected others. For you to say otherwise is lunacy and not supported by the facts.

While I don't agree 100 with WTF on this ... I think its a matter of great concern -- I totally disagree with the chickenshit little sky is falling panic rhetoric from Whir-LIE-turd.

Ebola is a horrible virus. But our country is NOT under attack.

That I believe for sure.

How much you wanna bet that not one single person comes down with Ebola from this doctor including his girlfriend?

She is in quarantine for political reasons.

Whirlaway · 10-24-2014, 09:03 AM

You confuse "unlikely" with "not possible".

I agree, it is unlikely others will contract Ebola from the NYC doctor. But it is possible.

Is that too deep of a concept for you to understand?

Whirlaway · 10-24-2014, 09:06 AM

You are the one with hysterics.

I never said Ebola represents an immediate attack on the US. Is the Obama administration getting their response right?

Nope. That doesn't mean I think Ebola will spiral out of control into a devastating pandemic.

You have your nose so far up this administration's ass you can't even see straight.

It is a matter of great concern in this country if you are treating Ebola patients.

But then parachutes are a matter of great concern if you are jumping out of a plane. These cocksuckers on the right are fear mongering to win the Senate. Just because their ignorant asses can't see what their leaders are doing does not mean I can't see Carl Rove with his hand up their dumb ass's.

I'm trying to figure a clever, inverse "coulda-woulda-shoulda" phrase at the moment... just to be able to cover all bases.

Silly MF'rs...

Whirlaway · 10-24-2014, 09:31 AM

You said it wasn't "possible" that others could get ebola from the NYC doctor.

You still standing by that stupid statement, or is this your chicken shit way of backing down from looking like the obvious idiot you are?

Of course the loonies will scream that he could have gotten people sick when in fact that is not true. Just as no one who was not knee deep in shit and vomit did not catch Ebola in Texas , so too will nobody get Ebola from this doctor.

Except maybe his girlfriend, right? The Ebola virus is in semen and saliva. The girlfriend is also being monitored.

Or does she not count?

In this instance, one might imagine that "girlfriend" for this doctor will soon be prefaced with "former" and/or "ex".

If it is not ok for the doctor to go to work at the hospital for 21 days, he should not be going to a restaurant or on the subway in NYC either.

Paraphrasing liberal thought here; if a travel ban stops only one person with Ebola (or several other illnesses) then it's worth it. Isn't that how it goes?

Do you know if you had actually listened to what people had said or read it no one is talking about a total travel ban (except for Obama and EVA). We're talking about a closely monitored admission policy from Ebola countries. Of course doctors and healthcare workers can move about with serious precautions like quarantine. Our military people follow the same guide line. Don't bring your strawman in here and expect us to applaude when you knock around something of your own creation.

You and Obama, sheesh, what a comedy team.

She counts and I bet she does not test positive....The fucking guy is a doctor and came from Africa , he knows the drill.

This is RW scare tactics ... that we have bought into it is a indictment our our society.
