We have been told that more than 100 passengers (on 7 flights) are suspected to have been exposed to Ebola India has an estimated population of about 1.27 billion people. Most are impoverished. Most live in over crowded cities that already have enough health issues. What the Indian Government is most likely doing is stemming any possible outbreak from happening before it does. Unfortunately the First World Nations are not taking this as seriously as they should. First world is way to confident that its already stressed health care system can respond efficiently to an outbreak in first world nations. Needless to say, First world nations are in for a nasty surprise. I suspect in about a month and a half we will be getting reports of outbreaks in First world nations. Not suspected cases - real confirmed cases. This one is moving slower than flu, but each step of the way we have been learning that this particular strain of Ebola has learned a few very impressive (and terrifying) new tricks - such as the longer incubation period, such as a better ability to be transmitted over distance without touch, such as the possibility that the patient is contagious prior to presenting symptoms. India is responding in the correct manner.... the rest of the world appears to be a little slow on how to proceed with dealing with people coming out of the affected regions. |

We have been told that more than 100 passengers (on 7 flights) are suspected to have been exposed to Ebola WHAT-IN-THE-FUCK are they doing putting them on 7 different flights??? Not mixing them with healthy people I hope. Quoting: Spam Killer The article at Ops link implies that only the potential Ebola patients are on the flights. Read it and tell me what you think. I can't draw anything conclusive either way from the linked piece- I'd like to think they were smart enough not to include normal passenger traffic on these flights BUT the rest of the procedures they outline are so halfassed and haphazard that I have real doubts. Hope this is just a case of shitty incomplete reporting and that Indian health officials have more of a plan than this. |

Quoting: Spam Killer 7 different flights, all different times, landing in 2 different busy cities in India... almost like they are just begging from trouble huh? Also gotta love this part... The medical team at CSIA has planned a five-step process for the safety of passengers, including parking the aircraft at an isolated bay. “The passengers will be screened at the step ladder itself. Those without symptoms will be cleared,” said an airport spokesperson. [link to indianexpress.com] So if someone onboard isn't showing signs yet, even if the guy 2 feet from them is, they will be cleared... sound like a fairly foolproof protocol don't ya think? I really do think we're living in the movies - somewhere between Dumb and Dumber and Idiocracy ![]() |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 35183962 Just a quick stop in the most populated city in South Africa. Wonder how they got there from Liberia? Exactly! I thought S. Africa had banned flights in and out of West Africa and Liberia? I think they will wind up abandoning the African continent altogether, in an effort to quarantine the population. They have been fucking with Africa forever now--no surprise that Liberia (a nation founded by slaves who returned from U.S. to Africa via a movement initiated by Marcus Garvey), Monrovia (still has standing pyramids to this day)and other West African nations--all of which are filled with descendants of the Egyptians (like the Dogon people of Mali). These peoples' cosmologies contain all the clues as to the nature of plasma--TPTB do not want this information available to the West--they have been oppressing Africa with default governments, bribery, apartheid, puppet-politicians, and disease-riddled "vaccines" for decades in an attempt to control, and conquer these people. But you cannot erase the cosmologies--nature repeats them throughout eternity. AFRICOM is setting the stage for a final sweep of the mother continent. They will fail again. |

We have been told that more than 100 passengers (on 7 flights) are suspected to have been exposed to Ebola Ebola in India: All six patients test negative for the virus Three more passengers travelling from Ebola-hit Liberia were detained at the Delhi airport and taken to hospital to test for Ebola. Around 112 Indians from ebola-hit countries were stranded at the airport in the morning. Three suspected passengers who were detained in the morning were tested and confirmed to be negative. The latest three being taken to the hospital to test Ebola takes the number to six. The Mumbai Airport has elaborated its precautionary measures as a preventive aid against Ebola.
