Here is what I think. Since you mentioned things dont add up. I agree things dont.
This Ebola outbreak is not like the Ebola they think they know and or tell everyone they think they know how it spreads. It is a virus and with all viruses the real question has some of the virus mutated to be airboure or something different. I dont mean every case but maybe just enough cases have gone airborne and or changed. If so the CDC and the Governments arent going to say anything as they try and "figure" out what to do. They clearly arent ACTING like they need to close things down, airports etc and I dont know that is just stupidity and or pretending to keep the world out of panic. IE we can have a serious problem I suspect they are willing to risk not telling so they aren't blamed and the world doesn't panic and the markets crash. That is the last thing they want and OBAMA wants is a blame game and panic its almost election time.
So i think they are going to just let this ride out people will die etc etc not say anything different and try and stop widespread panic which will cause other issues and civil unrest.
But what do I know that is all a conspiracy I suppose. But something doesnt add up, and speaking to what your saying with COMMON sense these solutions sound like BS solutions to anyone who has a brain when it comes to "containing" EBOLA.
The US is acting consistent with the rest of the world, who don't live and breathe for daily US polls and the midterms.
Exactly. If ebola is only transmitted through bodily fluids, that would put it at the same contagious level as AIDS. You don't see people who deal with AIDS patients wearing hazmat suits. And they don't quarantine everyone who has been in contact with an AIDS patient.
HIV is much less contagious and has a substantially longer incubation period than Ebola.
HIV, over time, disables the immune system and something like a common cold can cause death. Conversely, Ebola quickly destroys every cell it come in contact with.
HIV constantly mutates while Ebola reportedly remains rather consistent over time and geographical area.
It is believed that the Ebola virus is spread only by contact with bodily fluids. However there are emrging theories that it might be airborn in the sense that if some is incubating Ebola and sneezes and you inhale thos germs it may be possible for you to contract the Ebola. Again this is theory not proven fact.
Do you see Malaria outbreaks in the states? No you don't and there is no vaccine for that, but mosquitoes can carry malaria, yet no real outbreaks in the USA...hmmmm
Think tank time, gonna eat a bologna sandwich.
CDC and the states eradicated Malaria in the Southern states with DDT applications in the late 40's.
