Ebola. Nothing to fear.

One guy died so far, right?
I mean people drown in bathtubs almost every day.

And hospitals/doctors kill 100k-200k.

Your correct, but none of those can become pandemic like ebola.

There are a whole lot of folks killed by the common flue that is pandemic.

Nurse Pham's boyfriend has been moved to isolation as he is showing signs of the 'bola.

On a side note, a patient walked into Baylor med center in Dallas with symptoms of ebola. They transferred her to Presbyterian, even though Baylor is one of the specific isolations sites for ebola in Dallas. She tested positive as a risk during the verbal test (been to WA or had contact with ebola). She didn't want to wait around for the actual test results, so they let her leave.... Here we go again.

That is just lovely.

If it is to be believed, then this is good news.

A lab supervisor who handled a specimen from a Liberian man who died from Ebola in Dallas showed no symptoms during the cruise but self-quarantined out of caution. Carnival Cruise Lines told passengers the unidentified woman was tested for Ebola but the results were negative.

That seems like an awfully quick test result. Have they came up with a quicker way to test for Ebola?

I thought the same thing. Maybe they decided to use the "for experimental use only" equipment.

Carnival is just too cheap to give a refund. They are covering there ass.

It has been a quiet day. Are we safe yet?

I feel relatively safe at the moment, but I did have a few brews while watching the race. Probably be a different story in a couple of hours.
