Anonymous Coward User ID: 55915768 United States 10/18/2014 06:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was talking with my mom about this ebola matter and wether or not she would get the vaccine if it came to this. She told me she would because to not get the vaccine and remain in a sickened state would be like her murdering everyone around her because she refused to get the vaccine and as a result, she would be contaminating everyone around her. So after that scenario I just look at how the government and powers that be are handling this ebola and entrovirus threat and am speechless. Who's responsibility is it to protect ALL the people of the United States of America because I have yet to see them step in with a logical solution to this problem and to protect the people of america. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 62948775 United States 10/18/2014 07:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Announcement from Trey Gowdy: Quoting: ancha Yesterday, House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte and I called on the President to institute a travel ban on foreign nationals from countries experiencing Ebola outbreaks. The Administration should strongly consider this ban, as well as all other options, to protect the American public. In addition, our frontline health care workers deserve our respect and admiration for their tireless and heroic work as well as an assurance they are being provided with all necessary training and equipment... “Mr. President, “We write regarding your solemn duty as the President of the United States to take every step possible to protect the American people from danger. Specifically, we urge you to use authority granted to you by Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act to prohibit foreign nationals who were recently present in an Ebola-ravaged country, from entering the United States. “8 U.S.C. 1182(f) states ‘[W]henever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he deems to be appropriate.’ “You utilized this provision in August 2011, ‘to restrict the international travel and to suspend the entry into the United States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of certain persons’ who participated in serious human rights and humanitarian law violations. Preventing Americans from contracting Ebola, which the World Health Organization (WHO) notes ‘has a death rate of up to 90%’ and has already killed at least 4,484 people in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, is every bit as important as preventing human rights abusers from entering the United States. “While Ebola is not transmittable until a victim develops symptoms, the WHO notes that the incubation period can be 42 days or longer and that certain methods of Ebola transmission can continue for as long as seven weeks after a patient’s recovery. Therefore we urge that your use of 8 U.S.C. 1182(f) cover any foreign national who was present in a country with widespread and intense transmission of Ebola within the two months prior to desired travel to the U.S. Such a travel restriction can and should be temporary, with the moratorium lifted when the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, and any other countries with a subsequent outbreak, is controlled. “We have listened with interest to the arguments articulated by officials within the Administration in opposition to a ban on travel from affected countries. Unfortunately, such arguments seem to have little, if any, merit. And a growing number of Americans agree. In fact an October 14, 2014, ABC News/Washington Post poll showed that 67% of Americans surveyed said they would support ‘restricting entry to the United States by people who’ve been in affected countries.’ “Use of 8 U.S.C. 1182(f) is not only reasonable at this point, but is prudent and necessary to help prevent additional Ebola cases in the U.S. It will also help begin to turn around Americans’ large-scale lack of confidence that the Federal government is doing everything it can to protect them from Ebola. “Thank you for your immediate attention to this critical matter.” Trey Gowdy for President! |
