A 300-foot-long cargo ship, the EOT Spar, arrived in Port Canaveral about a week ago departing from Sierra Leone, West Africa 17 days earlier.

Even though all areas of Sierra Leone are infected with the Ebola virus, which has documented more than the U. S. Coast Guard refused to place restrictions on the EOT Spar’s crew[i].

The Coast Guard says it is in close communication with the EOT Spar, an American-flagged cargo ship out of Annapolis, Maryland. It’s scheduled to arrive in Port Canaveral on Nov. 4, four days prior to the end of a 21-day incubation period, based on its last day in Freetown. The Coast Guard says it’s monitoring the ship’s transit time closely.

‘They are required to report anybody with any symptoms,’ said U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Gabe Somma. ‘And in this particular case, we have no indication, no reason to believe, there is anything wrong with this ship….’

So sick of these B.S. talking points. No different than Obamacare architect Gruber saying that they had to lie to Americans about Obamacare because we were too stupid to like it or “if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep your healthcare plan” or “if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.” It’s the same game time after time after time.

It is not the way you communicate, Barack, it is your policies!

Keep in mind that there are vessels from West Africa docking at our ports regularly yet because of a media blackout as ordered by the government on these arrivals, we hear nothing. H/t Fire Andrea Mitchell.

Internal Memo: Obama to Bring Non-Americans with Ebola to USA for Treatment

BeFunky_Ebola STATE dept meme

 

A State Department memorandum reveals that Barack Obama is making plans (not considers) to bring non-American Ebola patients to the United States for treatment and the repercussions of his decision on the country be damned[i].

Fox News

The document was obtained by Fox News from a Capitol Hill source, who said it is a memo prepared by the State Department. The top of the document is marked ‘sensitive but unclassified – predesicional (sic).’

The ‘purpose’ of the memo states: ‘Come to an agreed State Department position on the extent to which non-U.S. citizens will be admitted to the United States for treatment of Ebola Virus Disease.’

The document goes on to discuss – and advocate for — devising such a plan. The memo recommends that ‘State and DHS devise a system for expeditious parole of Ebola-infected non-citizens into the United States as long as they are otherwise eligible…..

Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com

 

Read memo here, on SCRIBD or at the bottom of this post.

Obama touts the return of Americans who contracted Ebola overseas to the US and their successful treatment as justification to bring non-US citizens on to American soil for medical treatment of the virus.

SIDEBAR

I find it hard to believe that Obama administration could put such B.S. on the table to other nations and in writing. Mr. Bubblehead (Obama) fails to realize that the world has been watching him and his sock puppets muck everything up on the subject of the Ebola virus on and off U. S. soil.

END OF SIDEBAR

To further justify transporting non-Americans to U.S. soil for treatment of the Ebola virus, the Obama administration has concocted the following storyline.

 

BeFunky_screenshot page 3 excerpt of state department memo rationalizing bringing Ebola patients to USA for treatment 001

 

For weeks, we have been hearing that there are four hospitals with bio-containment facilities in the USA and only 11 beds that can be used at any one time for Ebola patients, far different from what is stated in the State Department memo. See page 3, ¶ 2 U.S. Treatment Capacity (excerpt below).

 

BeFunky_screenshot page 3 paragraph excerpt of state department memo us capacity for treatment  002

 

As mentioned in the memo the Obama administration is aware that under executive order 13295 amended this summer by Obama himself, “Ebola Virus Disease is a communicable disease of public health significance and grounds for visa ineligibility.”

According to the memo, DHS will issue a “waiver of ineligibility” or “port of entry waiver” (page 4).

What happened to treating the disease at ground zero? Has the Obama administration forgotten that Ebola is known as the nurse killer? In fairness, it kills doctors too (no pun intended). I do not have to point out what that means for healthcare staff in the United States.

It is not enough to say that, “not to worry, we can treat it.” Even for those who have survived this virus, Ebola takes a toll on its victims yet Obama has no problem with risking the lives of Americans by transporting Ebola patients from Ebola-afflicted nations to America.

Congressman Bob Goodblatte informed Megyn Kelly, The Kelly File (video below) of the existence of the memo and plans to bring non-American Ebola patients to the USA for treatment Monday night.

 

Evan McMurry, Mediate wrote a scathing article attacking Kelly and Goodblatte’s claims.

That would certainly be a development, especially in the face of continued calls for an overall travel ban for anybody from west Africa. Sure enough, Goodlatte swiftly condemned the administration for the move, telling Fox, ‘This is simply a matter of common sense that if you are concerned about this problem spreading …we certainly shouldn’t be bringing in the patients.’

But as of this writing there’s no evidence beyond Goodlatte’s claim that the administration is actually considering such a thing…. it took less than a minute for Goodlatte’s allegation to morph from an unverified potential development to a confirmed real-time event….

 

In less than 24 hours later after writing this smear job, McMurry’s biased reporting and smear campaign blew up in his face.

Megyn Kelly produced the memorandum on air last night immediately in addition to delivering the ultimate smack down of McMurry “who no one’s ever heard of but who works for a popular media website” (video below).

What are the odds of this being the first step towards mandatory vaccinations of Ebola virus? (See: The CDC, NIH & Bill Gates Own the Patents on Existing Ebola & Related Vaccines: Mandatory Vaccinations Are Near, The Common Sense Show)

After all trials are scheduled to begin by year’s end and pharmaceutical corporations stand to make millions. Thus, the need for lots of lab rats.

[i] For the record, no other time in the history of Obama’s tenure in the White House did this man want to lead but now he wants to lead, rather nudge (that never works) other nations into transporting non-citizens who have contracted the Ebola virus to their countries for medical treatment.

Quarantined Nurse, Kaci Hickox, a Progressive and CDC Employee

Quarantined Ebola Nurse, Kaci Hickox is a card carrying Progressive and CDC EIS Officer.

 

Oh, how the plot thickens New Jersey quarantined nurse, Kaci Hickox, who penned an article in this weekend’s Dallas News bitching about her treatment by officials at Newark Airport, some of whom were CDC failed to disclose her employment with the Centers for Disease Control.

Those of us who have been paying attention the past several weeks knew something was up as we recognized the language, i.e., Barack Obama, White House, CDC, MSNBC and now Sandra Flukes’ Kaci’s talking points were EXACTLY the same, VERBATIM. (It’s an insult that they believe us too ignorant to notice.)

On top of it all, Ebola Nurse aka elitist aka Sandra Fluke, correction Kaci Hickox is a registered Progressive (and Obama shill), which explains her arrogance and overwhelming sense of PRIVILEGE.

GotNews.com by Charles C. Johnson

Initially turned down for Doctors Without Borders, Hickox applied for a position with the Centers for Disease Control’s infectious disease unit. She received that position and began a two-year fellowship in Las Vegas, NV where she currently still works.

Hickox’s travels as a nurse took her to Myanmar, Cambodia, and Nigeria and convinced her of the importance of quarantines and ‘health surveillance,’ according to the University of Texas-Arlington newsmagazine. ‘I realize that we need to find better ways to improve health surveillance and outbreak response in settings with poor resources,’ Hickox said. ‘My training in the EIS with the CDC will allow me to learn the gold standard of this kind of work….’

She co-wrote an anti-pharmaceutical industry op-ed for the Baltimore Sun and advocated against policies that would have developed life-saving drugs….

Kaci’s LinkedIn account has suddenly been expunged but not before Fire Andrea Mitchell was able to procure a screenshot (below).

Progressives are now attacking the credibility of Charles C. Johnson, GotNews.com who broke the story so before his proof mysteriously disappeared from the internet, I accessed the article from which he quoted (excerpt below, parts of which may be redundant and screenshot at the bottom of this post).

Passion, Practicality Drive Nursing Graduate – UTA Arlington

Alumna Kaci Hickox takes a reasoned approach to almost everything. She’s enthusiastic about nursing, but her career choices follow a logical order.

“I always felt a strong desire to work overseas with vulnerable populations, and nursing seemed to be a perfect avenue,” she says. “On top of that, I knew there was—and still is—a nursing shortage and that I would have job security.”

It just made sense to pursue a two-year postgraduate fellowship in applied epidemiology with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Las Vegas.

Think of the CDCP’s Epidemic Intelligence Service as the CIA of public health. EIS teams respond to crises such as the West Nile virus and the pandemic H1N1 influenza outbreak. Hickox ’02 will work with the country’s top epidemiologists to analyze and improve health and disease surveillance.

Her first overseas project came in 2004 with the International Medical Corps after the tsunami in Indonesia. “While the work there was difficult and challenging, both professionally and emotionally, it also made me feel alive in a new way,” she says.

Confirming Kaci’s ties to the CDC, the “CDCP’s Epidemic Intelligence” is “a unique 2-year post-graduate training program of service and on-the-job learning for health professionals interested in the practice of applied epidemiology.”

Thanks to Free Republic the following links that will take you straight to articles written by Kaci Hickox and posted to the CDC website.

FACT: Sandra Fluke Kaci is an EIS Officer for the CDC and an Obama shill. Let her rot in that tent. It is shameful that she would consider herself above others who might find themselves quarantined. As such, that is the mindset of an elitist.

Starting to feel as if Barack Obama is protecting one of his own by pushing governors to reverse their policies on the 21-day quarantine.

What does this all mean?

For starters, Election Day is next week and then there is the presidential election in 2016.

Since Bridge gate fell through, Sandra Fluke Kaci has hired a civil rights attorney to represent her in a lawsuit, Progressives will use this against Chris Christie and those mean old Republicans.

I would bet Michelle Obama’s lunch program that this is just another dog and pony show put into play by the community organizer in the Oval Office.

In other words, this is nothing about Ebola, quarantine or containment.

These events are being staged. Kaci’s interviews with the media, a circus that has nothing to do with her rights being infringed. This is about politics, power, how long Barack Obama will sink and my bet is that Kaci will be out of quarantine by day’s end.

The intent of this charade was to change the minds of Americans who in overwhelming numbers are demanding a temporary travel ban and 21-day quarantine of those traveling from Ebola-inflicted nations, a gamble which backfired due to Obama’s shill being exposed.

What the mainstream media has to say about it does not matter. They are doing the will of their lordship, the community organizer.

It is the people’s voice that matters. We want a travel ban and 21-day quarantine put into effect for those traveling from Ebola-plagued nations.

One more thing, Republicans wake up! I’m tired of the GOP repeatedly being taken for a fool by Progressives. This must stop.

NYC Doctor who Treated Ebola Patients in Guinea Contracts Disease

24 Friday Oct 2014

Ebola, new-york-city, Obamafail


screenshot craig spencer new york city ebola patient

 

Well, that did not take long at all.

Dr. Craig Spencer who for a while worked with Doctors without Borders in Guinea tending to those afflicted with the Ebola virus returned to New York City several days ago.

As of Thursday afternoon, Spencer who for the past six days self-monitored and supposedly “self-quarantined” himself keeping an eye out for symptoms of the Ebola virus until this morning when he developed a fever has tested positive for Ebola.

The doctor is presently under care and quarantined at Bellevue Hospital.

According to Governor, Mario Cuomo, Spencer “was only exposed to very few people…” due to precautions the doctor had taken on his own.

Last night New York City’s mayor, Bill de Blasio and Governor Mario Cuomo held a press conference to assured concerned New Yorkers that there is no need for New Yorkers, visitors and tourists to worry.

Not so. In spite of feeling tired for three days traveled Spencer from his Harlem residence by taxi, had dinner at a restaurant, visited an elevated park and two bowling lanes in addition to traveling on three of New York City’s subways lines, i.e., the #1, A and L trains.

While sources said Spencer claimed to have self-quarantined after feeling ill, he was at a pair of bowling spots in Willliamsburgh, Brooklyn on Wednesday. He used Uber taxis, went to the High Line, a restaurant and took the subway — the No. 1, A and L trains — to get around, officials said.

The three subway lines rode by Spencer travel through the Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens making numerous connections throughout the City in every direction on a system that attracts 4.3 million riders a day.

NYDN

De Blasio, at a press conference with by Gov. Andrew Cuomo shortly after the results were released, said that there was no reason for anyone to worry about an outbreak.

‘We want to state at the outset there is no reason for New Yorkers to be alarmed,’ de Blasio said. ‘Ebola is an extremely hard disease to contract. It is transmitted only through contact with an infected person’s blood or bodily fluids, not through casual contact.’

‘He was only exposed to very few people,’ Cuomo said. ‘He was taking precautions on his own…’

READ FULL ARTICLE

 

 

I can assure you that not even halfway through the conference, New Yorkers began to worry. After all, de Blasio is the same schmuck who refused to close New York City public schools during a blizzard last winter while at the same time insisting that the streets were cleaned and safe to walk in.

While Spencer is in an isolation unit at Bellevue Hospital, the repercussions of his actions are unfolding.

Although the Uber taxi driver and passengers who entered the vehicle after Spencer are not at risk (according to the CDC), one of the bowling alleys (the Gutter) that Spencer visited is now closed and a scheduled concert canceled.

The Elephant in the Room

Did Spencer complete his tour in Guinea? Or was it ended because he was aware that he might have contracted the virus? Did Spencer prior to showing symptoms suspect that he might have contracted the Ebola virus? Is that the reason for his return to New York City?

Also not mentioned is the fact that Spencer got through the so-called Ebola safeguards at JFK Airport guaranteed to work by many in the Obama administration. FAIL.

Travel bans must be into place for those Ebola-stricken nations and those returning to the United States from those nations must adhere to a 21 or 42 day quarantine – not self-quarantine – QUARANTINE.

Finally, we can now add Mali to the list of Ebola-stricken nations now that a 2 year old girl whose father died of Ebola has contracted the disease.

On a lighter note, be thankful for Twitter.

Case of Ebola hit NYC. Dude went bowling and road the subway and everything. Not good.

If this doctor, who so recklessly flew into New York from West Africa,has Ebola,then Obama should apologize to the American people & resign! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 23, 2014

THIS JUST IN! The Ebola Case and the Axe Attack in New York, compels drastic action by DeBlasio to reduce Slurpee sizes by 50%! We’re Saved! — Ken Wahl (@KenWahl1) October 24, 2014

Now that Ebola’s in New York, it’s only a matter of time until it unionizes, then sues us all for bullying it on Twitter. — Will Antonin (@Will_Antonin) October 24, 2014

Silly NYPD Cops Secure Area around Ebola Doc’s Apt then Throw Masks, etc. into Public Trash Bin

BeFunky_screenshot nypd throws masks, gloves and tape protective gear into street corner trash bin.jpg

 

While waiting for confirmation that Doctor Craig Spencer had tested positive for the Ebola virus, two NYPD officers were dispatched to cordon off the area around the doctor’s apartment.

It is what happens after that that will is scary.

After leaving the premises, the officers headed to the trash bin located at the corner of the block where their vehicle was located.

Upon arrival, they begin to remove their protective gear, (which is no protection at all when it comes to the Ebola virus) only discard everything in the public trash bin, gloves, masks and all.

 

Taking advantage of a good crisis, New Yorkers should expect the NYPD’s labor union to demand biohazard bags for the officers….and a raise but not necessarily in that order. H/t the DailyMail.

Dallas Hospital Had Device to Detect Ebola but FDA Regulations Barred Use

Big Government, Ebola, FDA, incompetence, Tyranny


After weeks of blaming Texas Presbyterian Hospital for the delayed treatment of Ebola patient, Thomas Eric Duncan, it turns out that the CDC and fellow bureaucrats in the White House were not the only ones in DC who played a role in a calamity that exposed the incompetence of government. Enter the tyrannical FDA.

 

The Fim Array can detect Ebola and other diseases in under an hour using blood or saliva samples.

The Fim Array can detect Ebola and other diseases in under an hour using blood or saliva samples.

 

Texas Presbyterian had in their possession The Film Array, a $39,000 device capable of detecting the presence of the Ebola virus but could not use the device because it is not FDA approved.

Instead, the hospital had to wait 48 hours for confirmation of test results for not only Duncan but also Nina Pham and Amber Vinson, the two nurses who had contracted the Ebola virus while treating Duncan who were not wearing protective gear prior to his test results.

DailyMail

However, military news site Defense One reports that doctors could have simply turned on a toaster-sized device called the Film Array and gotten a diagnosis within minutes.

US military doctors sent to West Africa to combat the disease are already using the Film Array, which has more than 90percent accuracy, according to Defense.

The device costs $39,000 – a pittance by the standards of medical devices in hospitals – and was developed by Utah-based BioFire Diagnostics to test the genetic markers of a slew of gastrointestinal and respiratory viruses. It can use blood or saliva samples and it’s proven adept at quickly detecting Ebola, as well.

Presbyterian Hospital acquired one two years ago, though it has been prohibited from using the device to diagnose patients because the Food and Drug Administration had approved it only for research use – and not for testing Ebola….

Once again, big government needs to get out of the way. More proof that big government, their ineptitude and burdensome regulations translates into suffering and a pile up in the cemetery. FDA regulations, Obamacare is going to be a hoot. H/t Moonbattery.
