Renowned epidemiologist Jesse Jackson arrives in Dallas to deal with Ebola threat

It was probably because of something Jesse said.

Every time I hear Ebola I can't help but think.....

Amusing. When Rick Perry races up I35 to Dallas to make an appearance before any available camera in order to advance his standing with his constituency, nobody says a word. The idiotic boob, who made Texas a laughingstock during his last run for the GOP nomination, came up here for one reason...and one reason only.....to advance his political career by trying to appear presidential, and by trying to pretend that he was in charge and had a handle on this crazy Ebola shit.

I'm no fan of Jessie Jackson....he's a race-baiter and a huckster. But...he and Rick Perry are cut from the same cloth.

Well it struck me as rather strange. Thomas Duncan is Black receiving treatment for this disease, and Jesse Jackson pops up to voice his concern for Duncan's treatment. I hate to say this but it seems almost scripted.

BREAKING: Look What Just Happened At The Dallas Hospital Where The Ebola Patient Died

NORVELL ROSE — OCTOBER 12, 2014


For the first time, a person has contracted Ebola inside the United States, according to multiple news reports out of Texas. And it’s happened at the very hospital where Liberian national Thomas Eric Duncan died from the deadly virus.

And now, as CNN reports, that “confirmed” case of infection in a health care worker in Dallas may have led to yet another U.S. Ebola victim:

#1: Which strain? #2: "We" have "flu vaccine," but no Ebola vaccine.

FYI: I have now heard about a 1/2 dozen physicians with strong backgrounds and experience in contagious diseases debunk most, if not all, of the claims that it is "difficult" to transmit Ebola .... for instance ... .Myth: You cannot get Ebola by sitting next to someone who has it. Stated comment: Not necessarily.

Actually, Ebola is far more easy to contract than what the CDC keeps saying. Since it is not airborne, it is not as easy as other viruses to contract. However, Ebola has an extremely low viral load threshold required to contract the disease. The small amount of the virus found in aerosolized saliva and mucus from coughing is sufficient for transmission to occur. So even though Ebola is not technically an airborne illness, the risk factors for transmission remain the same as for an airborne virus.

Well if someone catches Ebola from someone sneezing or coughing they must be right next to them. Besides that Ebola isn't a Western Disease and it shouldn't catch hold here in the United States. If it does it wasn't by accident.
