Possible Ebola Patient Quarantined in Tulsa Oklahoma The news keeps breaking in to programming yet they say each time that it is a low risk.

Possible Ebola Patient Quarantined in Tulsa Oklahoma Does anyone remember news about several health or quarantine facilities one of which was in Tulsa? I remember thinking hm, Tulsa, I wonder why there. Quoting: rachel3108 I hadn't seen that so I decided to google "quarantine facility in Tulsa" and this is what came up first. It was posted this morning in the Tulsa World. [link to www.tulsaworld.com] snip "Quarantine has been in the news lately, but it was very real in Tulsa in the fall of 1918. In Tulsa and elsewhere, doctors were required to report every influenza case so that patients could be quarantined – with signs placed on the front doors of victims – and their homes fumigated by the health department." snip "In October alone, 200 flu deaths were recorded in Tulsa, said a Nov. 3, 1918, story in the Tulsa Democrat (predecessor of The Tulsa Tribune)." snip Coincidence? Probably, but interesting none the less. Proud to share the basket with you. |

Possible Ebola Patient Quarantined in Tulsa Oklahoma Even N Korea is doing a better job of protecting their citizens! [link to hosted.ap.org] Oct 30, 6:52 PM EDT N. Korea cracking down on a distant threat: Ebola By ERIC TALMADGE Associated Press snip "PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) -- North Korea announced Thursday it will quarantine foreigners entering the country for 21 days over fears of the spread of the Ebola virus, even though no cases of the disease have been reported anywhere in Asia, and very few foreigners are allowed to enter. North Korea is always on guard against outside influences, but now that it perceives the deadly disease to be a threat, its anxiety has reached a new level. It has banned tourists, put business groups on hold and is looking even more suspiciously than usual at every foreign face coming across its borders." snip snip "Foreigners from affected areas will be quarantined at one set of locations, while those from unaffected areas will be sent to other locations, including hotels. The staff of diplomatic missions and international organizations will be allowed to stay in their residences. Tourist visits to North Korea were halted last week, so few were likely to still be in the country." snip Proud to share the basket with you. |
