US Ebola scare

Postby Exiled. » Sun Oct 12, 2014 10:55 am

I live near Dallas, TX...

Just found out that we've had a second confirmed case and the first case of someone actually being infected over here. It's one of the nurses that cared for Duncan. Not totally unexpected but still scary.

The second nurse flew to Ohio after she was infected...

Get this... she actually called the CDC several times about flying and they gave her the go ahead due to her fever being too low for it to be considered a symptom. Then CDC's director turned around and publicly said she shouldn't have flown.

There's more... The head of the hospital talked to Congress about the issue and he stated that the nurses were wearing full protective equipment and that they didn't know how they were infected but the CDC stated that they didn't even have the required PPE for 2 days.

All I see are elites trying to protect their own asses.

I live about 25 miles south of Cleveland and 40 miles west of Tallmadge, the town where the second nurse stayed with family. This is all anyone here can talk about, we're all scared. Everyone in northeast Ohio is extremely pissed off and rightfully so!
