When they run out of morphine they will start using all of those .40 caliber HPs they have been stockpiling so that the excrement and the vomit stops flowing. (The waste production will be overwhelming). It will be one round to the back of the head at the edge of a very deeply dug pit. Then they will lay down a layer of lime and repeat.
Finally FEMA will evacuate the stadium, big box store, mall, etc. and lock the doors when it has reached capacity and become too slippery with fluids. A combination of napalm and accelerant will be used to fire the whole facility up so as to eliminate this locus of contagion.
This doesn't surprise me. I work in a hospital and two weeks ago asked co-workers what they thought about it. The response from one was "huh?" and the other said, "oh yeah" I saw something about that." This was all before the Dallas news broke.
My next question to them was, "if it really hits here would you take care of them?" After sitting and talking about the symptoms and ease of catching, plus all the African health care worked that have died from it,
they both said no they would not.
If this goes full blown I suspect there will be very few healthcare workers that will not do it. There will be some, but I bet there are far more that will choose the unemployment line.
Plus consider that almost 75% of health care workers are female and with children.
Interesting and scary times.
By the way I joined the board finally just because of all the Ebola stuff. And will keep you all informed of anything I see or hear that's interesting. So far all we have gotten is an email about the CDC guidelines. And PPE. Of course it's not space suits :/

Why would they look for a cure from tobacco plants?
Maybe the Africans who smoke aren't as susceptible to the disease?
Very interesting.. wouldn't that be a hoot!
Get your smokes before they're outlawed..

IIRC the tobacco is GMO to generate Zmapp or the Zmapp precursor, which then has to be extracted. It's not like you can harvest some tobacco and cure yourself.

Yep, they'll adopt the Dutch method - When in doubt - euthanize!
I hope your wrong but it's not like the human race hasn't done stuff like this before.. Rwanda, Russia and Germany to name a few ..

Based on what it's like to die from Ebola, I think many people - including myself, perhaps - will be begging for the .40 caliber HP

Dallas Ebola victim's stepdaughter - who took him to hospital as he was 'vomiting wildly' - is given all clear to return to work as a NURSING ASSISTANT
Youngor Jallah, 35, was called by the CDC on Sunday to say she can go back to work
Ms Jallah was with Thomas Eric Duncan when he was taken to a Dallas hospital. She made him tea, helped him move and was in ambulance with him
She told MailOnline: 'They said I can go back to work but I do not know what I will do. I will not go back yet'

Wait, is this possibly true? if so it was what 11 days post exposure? What happened to 21 days?

Exactly. There won't be any fight from the ambulatory patients. They will willingly walk to the edge of the pit and kneel forward for the head shot.
Agreed but if it gets that bad I have people that love me that will be willing to do the deed.. I need no .Gov agency deciding when my time is up ...Ebola is here the cover up is well documented ...we need to start talking about these hard issues.. I for one will NEVER go to a camp willingly or without a fight to the death to protect my self and family..

Mother of Ebola patient Thomas Duncan drives 15 hours to be near him as he receives experimental anti-viral drug in fight for his life
Nowah Gartay was driven 15 hours by relatives from her home in Charlotte, North Carolina to Dallas
She hopes to find a way to talk to her son in his isolation unit at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital
Mr Duncan is receiving the experimental anti-viral drug brincidofovir which was developed to fight herpes and small pox

The mother of Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan has traveled to be close to her son as he fights for his life against the deadly virus.
The 42-year-old patient has been receiving doses of an experimental anti-viral drug since Saturday after his condition took a turn for the worse at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital.
His mother, Nowah Gartay, was driven 15 hours by family members from her home in Charlotte, North Carolina to Dallas on Monday where she hopes to find a way to talk to her son.
In a video message filmed for her son with NBC last week, Mrs Gartay said: 'I love you. I pray for you to get well. My whole thinking is on you.'
Mr Duncan is receiving the drug Brincidofovir, which has shown promise in fighting the disease. The dug, developed by North Carolina-based Chimerix, is approved for the treatment of the herpes virus.
His doctors were granted permission by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to use the drug after his condition worsened.
The FDA grants emergency access to unapproved drugs on a case-by-case basis, usually when a patient faces a life-threatening condition for which there are no alternatives. The agency has not approved any drugs or vaccines to safely and effectively treat Ebola.
Mr Duncan was diagnosed with Ebola in Dallas last Tuesday after recently arriving from Liberia. He flew through Dulles International Airport in Virginia.
Two other experimental drugs developed specifically for Ebola have been used in American patients, though it's unclear if they had any effect.
The small supply of one drug, ZMapp, was exhausted after being used on a few patients.
A second drug, TKM-Ebola from Tekmira Pharmaceuticals, has been used in at least one patient and is said to be in limited supply.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are monitoring 48 people who came into contact with Mr Duncan while he was exhibiting Ebola symptoms.
None are showing signs of the virus which has develops between and one and 21 days after an individual has contact with the disease.
Federal officials say they are confident they can stay on top of any more cases that arrive.
President Obama on Monday announced that his administration was working on ways to screen travelers for Ebola before they enter the U.S. in an effort to prevent any other people with the virus from entering the U.S.
Currently, travelers are only screened in West Africa before they leave the Ebola-stricken nations of Guinea, Sierra Leone or Liberia.
Physicians had initially said that his body couldn't handle anti-viral drugs in critical condition and that they were providing only 'supportive care'.
Duncan will not be receiving the 'miracle drug' ZMapp that cured American missionaries Dr Kent Brantley and Nancy Writebol because there are no more doses of the serum left. The drug takes months to manufacture even very small quantities.
Based on early-stage research by the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institutes of Health, brincidofovir has shown that it kills the Ebola virus in the same way it fights the herpes and smallpox viruses.
Chimerix and the FDA are working to finalize protocols to begin a clinical trial to determine whether the drug will work in Ebola patients.
There is no proven cure for Ebola and currently the disease has a mortality rate of nearly 50 per cent.
The Food and Drug Administration on Monday approved an emergency order allowing the drug to be given to Ebola patients.

This is the first photo of the homeless man who sparked an Ebola alert in Dallas on Sunday after going missing following possible contact with an infected patient.
Michael Lively was the first patient to ride in the ambulance that was used to carry Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan to Presbyterian Hospital, Texas.
It is possible that Lively came into contact with Duncan's Ebola-infected bodily fluids during that ride.
Lively, who is not showing any symptoms of the disease, had been under observation when he wandered off.
He is now in the psychiatric ward of Parkland Hospital following a city-wide search by Dallas police.
Police are working to obtain a court order to hold Lively at the hospital, against his will if necessary.
Authorities had monitored him a day earlier before he went missing, but want to take his temperature regularly to make sure he doesn't have a fever, a possible symptom of Ebola infection.
Texas public health officials say there is 'zero chance' Lively spread Ebola to anyone else - even if he became infected with it.
Centers for Disease Control Director Thomas Friedan sought to reassure the public during a press conference from Atlanta.
The CDC is currently monitoring 48 people in Dallas who may have come into contact with Duncan while he was contagious with the deadly disease.
Losing track of Lively was just the latest mistake by authorities in Texas, who have come in for heavy criticism over their handling of the Ebola outbreak.
Ebola can manifest in a patient any time up to 21 days after exposure. A patient is not contagious until symptoms begin to emerge.
Lively is rated as 'low risk' for infection by authorities, but officials were still desperate to monitor him.
At a press conference on Sunday, CDC Director Thomas Friedan declared: 'There’s no doubt that we can stop Ebola in this country.'
Ebola is transmitted by contact with bodily fluids of an infected person.
Duncan was reportedly sweating profusely and vomiting when he was taken to the hospital.
The day before he had been due to leave Liberia, Mr Duncan carried a pregnant Ebola sufferer to her home where she later died.
Four days after the Ebola diagnosis, Duncan's girlfriend revealed that his sweat-stained sheets were still on his bed and that no one from the CDC or health department had been by to collect his belongings.
It was not until Friday that a cleaning crew finally arrived to remove the infectious items and clean the apartment.
He said that of the 48 people at risk for becoming infect with Ebola, just ten are considered high-risk.
Three of them are the family members that Duncan stayed with in a Dallas apartment and seven are healthcare workers who came into contact with him while he was contagious.
He noted that none of the people being monitored has shown any signs of being ill.
On Saturday, Texas Presbyterian Hospital announced that Duncan's health had declined and that he is now in critical condition and 'fighting for his life' against the disease.
Officials initially said Duncan is not receiving any experimental drugs to fight the Ebola because officials fear his body could not handle the medication in his current unstable condition. Instead, doctors are giving him 'supportive care,' ABC News reports.
However, CNN reported on Monday that he may be getting Brincidofovir, an antiviral medication developed to fight herpes that as shown promise against Ebola.
Supplies of ZMapp, the miracle drug that cured two American Ebola patients and a British nurse, have run out. Drug makers are working to produce more, but the process takes months.
Friedan said today that he will brief President Barack Obama on the outbreak tomorrow and that officials are considering stepping up checks at airports to help prevent infected patients from entering the country.
Currently, travelers from West African nations are checked for fever and questioned about their contact with Ebola patients at their departure airports, but are not formally screened before being allowed to enter the U.S.
Duncan allegedly lied to airport officials and told them he had not been in contact with anyone infected with Ebola before flying out of Monrovia, Liberia, last month.
Friedan stood by the screening procedures, pointing out today that 77 people have been prevented from getting on planes in West Africa thanks to the efforts of airport officials who were trained by the CDC.
Despite the calm and collected image that the CDC and Texas Department of State Health Services today, doctors and public health officials have repeatedly fumbled when confronted with the virus.
When Duncan first went to the hospital with a high fever on September 25, he was given antibiotics and sent home - despite revealing that he had recently been in Ebola-stricken Liberia.
He was not diagnosed with the disease until his girlfriend called an ambulance on September 28.
The ambulance transported at least one other person before being taken out of service.
Then, after the case of Ebola was confirmed, family members and friends who had contact with Duncan said they were left to go about their daily routines without contact from the CDC or local health officials.

In the article I posted here: http://www.timebomb2000.com/vb/show...me-Ebola%85-and-how-I-survived-(MUST-READ-IMO) , a doctor who was in the hospital where Sawyer was treated had ONE incidence of unprotected contact. She touched Sawyer's IV bag, not the cath or him, just the bag. She then came down with the disease, manifesting symtoms (sore throat, malaise, loss of appetite, aches) a day or so BEFORE a fever manifested.

Has anyone else heard of the online game, Plague? My kid was talking about it and playing it a lot a year or so ago, so i googled to look it up. The creator of the game was invited to speak at the CDC over a year ago!

The man behind Plague Inc., a massively popular mobile game that tasks players with using a deadly disease to destroy humanity, has been invited to speak at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about his game, the spread of disease within it and the potential to use games as public health awareness tools.
"I made Plague Inc. as a hobby," said James Vaughan, the game's creator, in an interview with Polygon. "I don't have a medical background."
Vaughan, who studied economics in college and worked as a consultant before developing Plague Inc., will give a few lectures at the CDC later this month.
"They reached out to contact me," said Vaughan. "It was something they were all playing, and they thought, 'Wow, this is pretty cool.'"
Plague Inc. is a strategy title in which you take control of a deadly pathogen and, beginning with patient zero, attempt to spread the plague across the entire world and wipe out the human race — which does its best to adapt and stop you in your tracks at every turn.
Vaughan began working on the game in 2011 as the one-man team Ndemic Creations. With the help of three freelancers, the studio launched it last year on iOS in May and then on Android in October. It has since been downloaded millions of times, including more than 2 million paid downloads on iOS. Less than three months after its release on iOS, Vaughan quit his day job.
"I made Plague Inc. as a hobby. I don't have a medical background."
He acknowledged that Plague Inc. isn't exactly a simulation of how infectious disease spreads, but said, "I tried to make it as scientifically plausible as possible."
Vaughan added, "The overall impact of a disease spreading [in the game] is pretty realistic. You have the airports and the boats and it spreads from these major flight connection areas to smaller, more rural areas."
The CDC invited Vaughan to speak at its headquarters in Atlanta for two main purposes, he explained.
"They're interested in how [the plague is] spread," he said. "They're also very keen on how games like Plague Inc. can be used to inform the public about health issues and raise public awareness of these issues."
Vaughan will speak at the CDC in mid-March, during the week prior to the Game Developers Conference. His lectures will not be open to the public.

When the Dallas patient was first diagnosed with Ebola, the local police department made a statement on the local news. Said that when 911 had been dialed, police and ambulance had been dispatched. The statement at that time was that the police officers dispatched had NO contact with the patient or family, and was not in any danger. They were not being tested, not being quarrantined, etc... There was NO danger for these officers.
On the local news here in Dallas this afternoon, newsman had a very tiny blurb (almost missed it) said that the officers are on paid leave and that the (2?) police cars that had been dispatched to the apartments are now pulled out of the fleet and are being DECONTAMINATED.
I dont have a link, but will search for a link and will watch the next time news comes on to see if they say it again. If they do, I'll record it.

you know about this jesse jackson thing-----call me nuts, but i find it hard to believe that these people have NO symptoms, and have NOT caught ebola with all the time and contact they had with duncan.
just reading all the many stories of how other people and health care workers caught ebola with minimal contact, and here these folks, the girlfriend, the boys, the daughter, all touching him, being in contact with his vomit and excrement, sharing the same bathroom, etc----how could they NOT have caught ebola?
and considering the nature of jackson, arrogant, money grubbing, opportunistic media hog, either this is not the real family or he has been clued in its not real ebola and it is safe for him to go there and look like a brave, compassionate , sacrificing his life kinda guy all to help the family..
there is now way he would actually go into an ebola infected area and hang out with ebola victims with no hazmat protection. so im thinking this is staged, with actors or lookalikes or duncan dose not have real ebola zaire and this scare has been created for specific purposes.
there are too many bizarre things going on with tptb acting like this aint real ebola. something smells

there are too many bizarre things going on with tptb acting like this aint real ebola. something smells

I really wonder if the guy has ebola. I just don't understand how people like the Spanish nurse are getting it while people that were practically MARINADING in Duncan's fluids are not showing anything....
Be Well
may all be well
We don't know they aren't showing anything. The new nurse whose story BBL just posted, started experiencing symptoms one week after touching his IV bag or was it a cath bag? Fever a day or so after that. The next week will be very interesting.

I admit I'm suffering from Ebola overload here in Dallas (it's just all I hear right now), but I have not seen the family (girlfriend, her family that lived with him) since the day they were moved to a "safe Location". No interviews, no visuals, no phone calls even.. There are "released statements" but I have not seen them at all.
I am not confident that they are healthy. at all.
If someone has seen them on an interview and I am mistaken, please let me know. But I don't think so...
(I am seriously on overload right now though and it is possible I missed it)

It was his IV bag and, according to how I read it, her symptoms preceded onset of fever by a day or more.

Agreed. I think it'll be a news blackout, until TPTB get their ducks in a row. In the meantime, I think Mr. Duncan is dead.
I also think there's some major pressure on potential whistle blowers right now, but I expect *someone* will cave at some point. Grab that tweet or phone call when it occurs. I expect it to get scrubbed ASAP.
Here ya go...the family meeting with Jesse Jackson today. http://www.timebomb2000.com/vb/show...ont-of-the-camera-again&p=5375174#post5375174

#1 reason I'm frightened for this family being removed and hidden.

Wrong.
The news was clear that's his mother who lives out of state, and other relatives. They were not exposed.
I'm talking about his girlfriend and the family living in that apartment... they have not been seen since.

He met with unexposed family members, not the ones that have been taken into hiding!
