Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

That you have to prove your legal residence with a visa, green card, birth certificate etc? So the point that people (Ebola victims and illegal aliens) are coming here for "free health care" is completely bogus.

Quote:Originally posted by 1kiki: There are conflicting reports about what happened. Originally the hospital said the computerized systems that the doctors input and the nurses input had conflicting information - that the nursing records indicated an Ebola risk but the doctors' didn't, and that the two systems didn't talk to each other. It later changed its statements and indicated that indeed both systems had the proper information, it just didn't get acted on for an unknown reason. Some reports indicate he said he had no contact with sick people.

Quote:Originally posted by JEWELSTAITEFAN: So maybe we can detail the current spread of Ebola that Obamination has started. Suspected cases can be listed, and then if they are confirmed, that added. So far, Doc who went to where? Texas? Then Nurse who went where? Then Liberian guy Duncan in Dallas, Texas. One in Utah. One in Hawaii. Case with reported symptoms in Rhode Island. Same in Delaware. Are there more?

But Barry sees no reason to scale back any travel to and from infected W. Africa. Democrats Join Call To Ban Travelers From West Africa WASHINGTON -- Three Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives have joined Republicans in calling on President Barack Obama to restrict travel by people from Ebola-stricken West Africa. "The United States needs to institute travel restrictions, enhanced airport screening and possible quarantine of individuals who have traveled to, or from, the West African countries that have been most impacted by this tragic Ebola epidemic," says the Wednesday letter. Reps. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.), Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) and Dave Loebsack (D-Iowa) joined two dozen Republicans in signing the letter. Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) is one of the only other Democrats who has called for a travel ban, most loudly advocated so far by Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R). (Grayson first called for a ban in July.) As The Hill reported, a new poll shows that a majority of Americans support the idea. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/09/ebola-travel-ban_n_5961446.html Of course, it probably doesn't help any that Alan Grayson is bonafide nuts, but still, he's a Democrat.

And how would you know if I work or not ? And why would you care ? Per the Ebola issue, the Dallas hospital sent Duncan home , even though he had a 103 degree temperature and he TOLD THEM he had just traveled to Africa. " The system worked " Like hell it did.

Quote:Has anyone put forth any mechanism by which this travel ban would be enforced? How do you propose to restrict people coming in from places that already don't have direct flights into this country?

How do you propose to restrict people coming in from places that already don't have direct flights into this country? You check passports on the way in. It shows your country of origin, and all of the places you traveled thru with a visa stamp most recently. Right? -------------- You can't build a nation with bombs. You can't create a society with guns.

Quote:Originally posted by 1kiki: Not a prediction. An explanation of the difficulties of doing something effective. BTW, here's Obama's statement, which is very different from the one you CLAIM he said. I trust your English is sufficiently developed so that I don't need to explain what it means in simple terms: First and foremost, I want the American people to know that our experts, here at the CDC and across our government, agree that the chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. We’ve been taking the necessary precautions, including working with countries in West Africa to increase screening at airports so that someone with the virus doesn’t get on a plane for the United States. In the unlikely event that someone with Ebola does reach our shores, we’ve taken new measures so that we’re prepared here at home. We’re working to help flight crews identify people who are sick, and more labs across our country now have the capacity to quickly test for the virus. We’re working with hospitals to make sure that they are prepared, and to ensure that our doctors, our nurses and our medical staff are trained, are ready, and are able to deal with a possible case safely. When it comes to screening - I'd be really curious how many Ebola-positive people it'll pick up. Remember, Eric Duncan arrived on September 20 a healthy man, and didn't go to emergency until September 23. I predict (and this is a prediction) the screening will detect zero Ebola patients. It's being done for political reasons, to placate idiots.
