Man Being Tested At Mount Sinai Hospital For Possible Ebola Virus

how is Ebola a topic for the Political Discussion forum ?
 

Travel related, IF it is Ebola:

after traveling to a country where the Ebola virus is present, the hospital said in a statement.The man arrived at the East Harlem medical center’s emergency room early Monday morning with high fever and gastrointestinal symptoms. The man told doctors he had recently traveled to a West African country where Ebola has been reported, the hospital said. The man has been placed in “strict isolation” and is undergoing various tests to determine the cause of the symptoms, the hospital said. “All necessary steps are being taken to ensure the safety of all patients, visitors and staff,” the hospital said in a statement. “We will continue to work closely with federal, state and city health officials to address and monitor this case, keep the community informed and provide the best quality care to all of our patients.” The World Health Organization announced Monday that the death toll has increased from 729 to 887 deaths in Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Nigeria, CBS News reported. Most of the newly reported deaths occurred in Liberia.

Wonderful. We should be looking at some sort of special treatment for every plane from Africa landing here,
 
I'm getting Ebola just from reading about it.

If anyone could contract stupidity from reading RW drool, we would all be brain dead.
 
Serum used on patient seems to be working...

Untested because.........

One challenge with Ebola, experts say, is that companies don't believe they could make much money from developing a vaccine, so few companies show interest.

Not much ZMAPP available. Obviously, the US government wasn't going to subsidize research for poor Afican nations, since nobody believes it could be ALREADY IN THE USA.
 
The only good thing you can say about ebola is it's pretty tough to pass on. And it's only contagious when the victim is well into the symptoms. Thank God it isnt airborne.

They say its not airborne but you bleed from every place in your body. So say this person is bleeding in his lungs. They cough and doesnt cover his mouth next to someone with an open wound or it hits near their nose or mouth. It can happen. To say it can is naive
 
Under Obama's edict, anyone with a so called "respiratory" issue can be detained. It's probably some illegal immigrant with TB. Oh, I'm sorry, I meant to say "refugee".

The hemorrhagic rash bursts and the fluid gets to the next victim

By the time it reach's that stage it's pretty obvious that they have Ebola. You dont often see someone bleeding from the eyes after all. Anyone hanging around without taking precaution's at this point is a complete idiot.
I assume you meant "can't" and yes it can obviously happen or there wouldnt be so many dead in africa. This is highly unlikely to happen in the U.S. though,for obvious reasons.
