CDC Raises Response to Highest Alert Amid Ebola Outbreak
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday ramped up its response to the expanding Ebola outbreak, a move that frees up hundreds of employees and signals the agency sees the health emergency as a potentially long and serious one.
The CDC’s “level 1 activation” is reserved for the most serious public health emergencies, and the agency said the move was appropriate considering the outbreak’s “potential to affect many lives.” The CDC took a similar move in 2005 in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, and again in 2009 during the bird-flu threat.

Participant[quote=UCGal]As far as contagion – the issue is with bodily fluids. So as long as you don’t touch/ingest/etc any pee, poop, blood, spit, sweat etc of the patient, you should be fine.
Most of the outbreak origins can be traced back to eating infected animals. Like an infected monkey…
It sounds like it’s kind of like AIDS – as long as you use precautions around the patient not to get exposed to their body fluids, you’re less likely to get it.[/quote]
The video in the op suggests Ebola is now airborne to a limited extent.

It’s a war of man.ParticipantThis is happening largely because the US is less able to project leadership around the world.
Also, AIPAC has WAY to much influence in the US.

Oh geez. Let me be more clear for you.Your ANCESTORS were very likely immigrants who were allowed in. But now that you’re here, let’s keep everyone else out, shall we?[/quote]
No, just those who attempt to or have entered illegally.
We no longer have a shortage of human capital.
Participant[quote=spdrun]”Trained on a system” doesn’t imply current possession of said devices. I imagine that there are plenty of ex-USAF people alive who were trained how to employ a nuclear weapon, yet no longer have access to said weapons.
This being said, even if the missile did come from Russia and shoot down a plane across the border, it still didn’t make it a good idea for a civilian airliner to be in the same airspace a few days later!!! If you’re hit by a missile fired by the Russian military vs one fired by terrorists, you’re just as dead.
And the Russians have a long history of shooting first and not apologizing later.[/quote]
Ok comrad, understand though that MH17 could have been taken over by remote control or via terrorists.
The shoot-down was an act of war IMO.
