Whats wrong with this picture: pilot back from West Africa is screened with fever

Are you really that dense (I know I am) that I have to explain the obvious? I guess I do. The government has been putting out this magic number of 21 days since the get go. They are good until they hit 21 days like the nurse in Maine. Or they are good if they get to 21 days and nothing has happened like the family exposed in Texas. That whole 21 days bullshit was a government invention. They try to ignore (because government believes in one size fits all) that Ebola can live for 30, 40, or 50 days on the right surface or that everyone is different in their resistance.

My other point is starting this thread which you have conveniently forgotten is that Obama promised that the military personnel would not come in contact with sick people. Apparently he has broken that promise already whether this pilot has ebola or not. The government thinks that he might and that means he had contact. Now go forth, extract your head from your ass and try to live on. Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

Misstating the facts and making yourself look like a fool is sarcasm how exactly? Originally Posted by ExNYer

Notice how I used your words against you without doing what you do. I was fresh and creative but still get the point across. Your closet homoerotic symbolism is not lost on us but we choose to overlook your strange lifestyle for the most part. However, it does come in handy to subject you to criticism and ridicule. You're welcome!

You can't weasel your way out of this one.

You CLEARLY thought that Ebola did NOT show up before 21 days. That is why you made a big show about the doctors checking the pilot in only 15 days.

You clearly thought you had caught Obama/the CDC/Big Brother in a lie.

Instead, you demonstrated once again that one should not drink and post.

All of the blather above about 30, 40, and 50 days is just spin. Even it was true that you can first show signs 50 days after exposure, that does NOT mean that checking for the disease after only 15 days is in any way illogical.

So, for the record, explain why you think looking for signs of the disease after only 15 days is in any way odd.

Let's see you spin that.

Just because the US plan is that US solders will not be intentionally exposed to Ebola patents, that does NOT mean you do not check the for the disease.

No one can completely control the environment. A soldier could get it accidentally by contact with a doctor or nurse who had treated patients a week earlier and is just starting to get feverish.

Obama's statements were clearly referring to INTENTIONAL contact with Ebola patients.

NO, I've gotten it correct whereas the White House has gotten it wrong many times. Unless you believe that 21 days is the cutoff.

You still haven't explained why checking a guy for Ebola 15 days after possible exposure is strange. Will you be doing that any time soon? Or will you keep changing the subject until this goes away?

And care to post a link to your previous post where you supposedly get it right?
