Default Ebola comes to Atlanta

Does this not sound just like the opening of a Sci-Fi horror flick?

Emory University Hospital is expected to receive a patient infected with the deadly Ebola virus within the next several days, the university announced Thursday.

Saw that on the news this morning. Atlanta is set up with a special unit for ebola vics and has staff trained yearly on how to deal with it. One of two hospitals in the country so set up from what I read.

Scary sheet, bringing vics here on purpose

Scary, yes, but would you want a loved one stuck in a third world country with a life threatening illness? They are American citizens, do we just leave them there?

These isolation facilities are set up to handle these potential pandemics, including smallpox, drug resistant TB to name a couple.

These facilities did not exist when the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic killed an estimated 50 million people world wide.

As far as I know and have read, it is against the immigration law to knowing enter or bring someone into the County with a know and active contagion of this type. But obviously we no longer are a law abiding civilization. We are a do whatever you WANT nation now.

If this gets out, and it just might, we will see an epidemic like no other in history.

I guess it was just too much work to take a medical team to the patient. How inconvenient for the Medical staff.

I wake everyday to read new and greater horror stories. Unfortunately, they are not fiction, they are breaking NEWS......

I know that bad people would be happy to send people here with early symptoms, or infect what would be suicide bombers and get them on planes before symptoms show. I know my trailer is loaded and if this sh*t breaks out we are secluded up in SC in ten hours. But I'm always ready to bug out so it's not like I did anything special.

In shorter terms....I agree

I'm actually a lot more worried about the infections coming by the trainload across the southern border. They have already been reported outbreaks of pneumonia, scabies, H1N1, tuberculosis, chicken pox, and measles. There are rumors of dengue fever and ebola infections.

I agree, anyone think this could be an "oops" to address the population problem? I mean we are kind of overpopulated, and with overpopulation, famine and disease usually run rampant. We also know moving mass peoples into other lands causes disease. Look what happened to the American Indians.

Either I'm just getting older and falling apart, but it seems like everyone I know lately is sick or falling apart.
