[Global News] Sixty days to beat Ebola or we are in an unprecedented situation

[Toffenut]

Scientist claim that by the end of this month, Ebola could reach France and the UK.
Ebola has a 75% chance if reaching France and a 50% chance if reaching Britain by the 24th if October.

Source, and what does reaching mean, infecting a couple people or actively spreading throughout the country such as it is in countries already heavily infected?

Source was from one of my mothers friends who is a scientist. :3
And it just means like arriving and taking effect on people and then spreading.

what kind of scientist is she then?

how da hell am i supposed to know! all i know is that he is a scientist, never really seen him :3

so you're thinking he's speaking the truth because he's a scientist? it's just another person guessing when or what. don't think he tells the truth because he is a SCIENTIST.

It also confirms in a website

Glad to see the UN getting in on the scare mongering as well, was getting bored of hearing indavidual governments do it.

It's not scare mongering at all it's a very real situation and sadly due to the incompetence of the CDC it's starting to spread in the US too.

Did you know a nurse travelled on an airline with hundreds of other passengers after calling the CDC and saying she thinks she has ebola because she had a high fever but the CDC said nah, it's fine you don't meet the criterias for Ebola and when she got in the country she was diagnosed with ebola?

She reported having a temperature of 99.6 degrees F (normal being around 99) before heading on the flight, still under the requirements to be considered a high fever and could be induced by physical activity, stress, or a multitude of other small ailments. She was one of many nurses on watch for contracting Ebola.

Let's look at the facts-

Ebola Transmission
If we are accepting what governmental leaders around the world are telling us, Ebola is contracted by being in contact with the carrier of the disease. Ebola is considered the "caretakers disease" and for good reason. Ebola is only transmittable when the patient begins showing noticeable symptoms I.E flue like symptoms, internal and external hemorrhaging, vomiting, etc. The reason it is so rampant in three of the many African countries is because the living standards and medical procedures there are much worse than around the world. Many still believe Ebola to be a superstitious disease and do not head the warnings of doctors there. Sick patients are living in a small home with 10 other people while vomiting and bleeding everywhere while mother and father take care of them, in turn getting the disease.

Ebola in the U.S.
The man who contracting Ebola and flew to the U.S. had lied about being around anyone who had Ebola and flew the airlines without symptoms. The 2 U.S. nurses had contracted the disease because they did not have the proper equipment in the Dallas lab to be 100% safe from infection. Both nurses are doing well since the sickness was caught early. Quarantines in large hospitals and proper equipment have been sent to ensure that it doesn't transmit further.

Infectiousness of Ebola
Don't be around someone who is vomiting, coughing up blood, shitting themselves, or bleeding out of their skin and eyes. Many other diseases and sicknesses are MUCh more contagious than Ebola, with a higher death rate. Over 40,000 people die every year from the flue in the United States alone. Go get a flu shot and stop having a meltdown over Ebola (not directed at anyone, just the media and mass coverage in general)


This is, indeed, fear mongering.

There is plenty of reasons to believe that Ebola can spread with out any symptoms. Nurses across the US believe themselves that they are not ready to deal with Ebola. Saying that the common flu is so much worse and you shouldnt have to wrry if fucked. the death rate of the flu is less than 1% than over 60% with Ebola. If you dont think cities are already crawling with bacteria that can transmit diseases then your e screwed. First world countries are dirty in a different way. The 2 nurses contracted Ebola because THEY chose to not follow proper precautions. It was all their fault. Just because youre not around people that are sick/ showing symptoms doesnt mean you cant get it from being out in public. Why are you saying to worry more  about the flu then just go get a shot? Ebola doesnt have a confirmed cure. That combined with it clearly being able to spread and its mortality rate makes it much worse

My whole point in involving the flu as a factor in this was due to its easy transmittable and the death rate that follows. You act like Ebola is the most infectious thing on this planet when it really isn't. First world countries are a "different" dirty, but that is not what I'm talking about- that is something you would say in elementary school- I was getting at the close proximity of people in third world countries and the lack of a proper sewage system, water purification system, and proper hygiene. These are all provided in first world countries and cuts down on the risk for spreading the disease exponentially. Not to mention this diseases is like a fucking strobe light to spot, the symptoms are almost souley unique, and if you aren't showing the symptoms, you aren't contagious.

Now to mention the nurses, they did not follow protocol (which there really wasn't a stable protocol at the time) and were not given proper equipment.

There are plenty of scientists saying that it is contagious even when you arent showing symptoms. I chose to belive them. There is so reason it couldnt be. People are also packed in the US. Have you never been in a subway? Yes first world countries have sewage systems and fresh water but that wont be the deciding factor in it spreading. No Ebola isnt the most infectious thing out there but you treat it like theres nothing to worry about

Ok, first, there is every reason to believe that it spreads while asymptomatic. Sure, you may not be as contagious, but the virus is still in your system, and can be transmitted through the normal methods. Also, If 5 people who are showing Flu like symptoms, board the NYC Subway (Daily ridership of 5.5 MILLION) They can easily be in almost direct contact with hundred to thousands. They are also quite filthy, with rats running free, and there is speculation that they can carry it as well.

Also, the nurses were following the CDC regulations in place at the time, and still were infected. This shows that the Government knows squat.

WHO states that by the end of November, there will be  10k plus cases a week.

So, what you are saying is that if we do not kill this shit in 2 years we are all going to die?

No, Just saying that at the current rate, it will be quite bad by years end.

It will probably burn itself out long before it reaches that point.

I honestly thing that there will be several million dead, maybe 2-3? But nowhere near an Extinction Level event as this shows

What do you mean "burn itself out"? Like, everyone carrying the virus will die, along with the virus itself?  Or, it just dies off?

There are plenty of scientists saying that it is contagious even when you arent showing symptoms. I chose to belive them. There is so reason it couldnt be. People are also packed in the US. Have you never been in a subway? Yes first world countries have sewage systems and fresh water but that wont be the deciding factor in it spreading. No Ebola isnt the most infectious thing out there but you treat it like theres nothing to worry about

Yes, that IS a deciding factor. When you are squalering in the shit of some guy who just puked blood everywhere, you're going to have a problem. When you live in a home with 10 people and great uncle mahakalaka just started bleeding from his eyes in a pool on the ground, you're going to want to be far from it.

No, we should not completely ignore the problem, but we don't need to act like it's the goddamned bubonic plague.

@killjoy, no the nurses did not follow CDC guidelines. The projections could be accurate or could be completely off. there is no way to tell due to the thousands of factors involved.

By dieing off he means that Ebola is too deadly. It kills before it can spread further. It doesnt really make sense but if you ever played the game Plague inc. youd get it

The projections were posted 2-3 months ago, and at the current rate they seem to be decently accurate.


'And at a time when the recommendations from the CDC (Centers of Disease Control and Prevention) that we were following did not include the full respiratory mask.'

So, when she contracted it she was following Guidelines, but they were not adequate by any means.
