Dog with one eye


Two blondes were walking down the road and the first blonde said "Look at that dog with one eye!" The other blonde covers one of her eyes and goes, "Why?"





The perfect woman!


A man is eating in a fancy restaurant, and there is a gorgeous blond eating at the next table. He has been checking her out all night, but lacks the nerve to go talk to her. Suddenly she sneezes and her glass eye comes flying out of her socket towards the man. He reflexively grabs and snatches it out of the air." Oh my god, I am sooo sorry, " the woman says as she pops her eye back in place. "Let me buy you dinner to make it up to you." They enjoy a wonderful dinner together and afterwards the woman invites him back to her place for a drink. They go back to her HOUSE, and after a bit she leads him into the bedroom and begins Undressing him. The couple have wild passionate sex over and over all night. The next morning when he awakens, she has already gotten up and brings him breakfast in bed. The guy is amazed." You know, you are the perfect woman. Are you this nice to every guy you meet?" "No, she replies.... "You just happened to catch my eye."

Hope this clears things up for you.

A bit of research helps expand minds.
If the US doesn't owe them, why are they obligated to support them?


#6 in the queue for citation-provision.




While you're busy "expanding (your) mind", why don't you just cut-and-paste those citations to legitimate sources that back up your presented-as-fact statements?


You appear to believe that "providing citations" is simply repeating the same erroneous sentiments incessantly, while changing up the sentence structure somewhat.

Many of the obamacare sites still aren't working or, are being hacked.

WHO, CDC and DC, don't use the policy of,(do all we can to void panic?) I will state, I don't believe WHO, CDC or DC will give the nation or world the whole picture.

Cases in Africa are being reported as doubling on a bi-weekly basis.

Does the US believe it's immune from a pandemic? A homeless man had a ride in the infected ambulance and was released. EMT personnel drove said vehicle and EMT kept him company in the rear.

Above claim rejected due to lack of supporting evidence.

Our president has opened US arms to them.

It is disrespectful to deny them the benefits DC awards them.

This topic is mainly about the African children who should be classified as refugees and disbursed within the US.

Are we not the world leaders in humanitarian acts?

Aliens are welcome every day.

They come over to make a better life.

The US owes them.

The children of Africa are innocents no one wants.

The US has taken in adults from all over the world.

The immigration policies allow for illegals to stay.

But, little, defenseless kids. No room for them?

How humanitarian.

eh, new user posting controversial thread?


IMHO

They LET Duncan in to "test new treatment". Good guinea pig. American's won't do it. laugh

Stocks are up on ebola vaccines! :banana:

How will they know if it's the vaccine or his own immune system? If he dies anyway, how will they know if they gave it to him too late? How many children did the children he infect come into contact with?
Do those kids go to school or daycare? Do they take public transportation? Are they quarantined or, still just being watched?

On fellow made a good point. If there is a severe outbreak, many jobs will open up after the cleanup is done. Unemployment numbers could drop to the lowest numbers in US history.

Win-win for DC politics.

WHO and CDC won't cut loose on much information on it.

I'll have to add insurance salesman to my resume.

Have a heart, People. Take in an African child, abandoned by their dead parents.

Their communities are shunning them.

I have sent an Email to the president and my congressional Representative to give these kids refugee status and line them up with with foster parents here.

Who will join the effort to adopt these kids?

Thousands of children orphaned by Ebola abandoned, stigmatized
By Faith Karimi, CNN
updated 4:19 PM EDT, Thu October 2, 2014


(CNN) -- Ebola has orphaned thousands of children in West Africa, and relatives are terrified of taking them in for fear of infection, the United Nations said.

About 3,700 children in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone have lost one or both parents to the disease, according to U.N. child agency, UNICEF.



In addition to mourning the loss of caregivers in the three hardest-hit nations, the children feel abandoned and stigmatized.

"Orphans are usually taken in by a member of the extended family, but in some communities, the fear surrounding Ebola is becoming stronger than family ties," said Manuel Fontaine, UNICEF's regional director.

With Ebola infections skyrocketing in recent weeks, the agency fears the number of orphans could double this month.

In the next few months, about 2,500 survivors will get lessons on providing care to children quarantined in treatment centers. Ebola survivors are considered immune to the disease.

"UNICEF is looking at traditional and new ways to help provide children with the physical and emotional healing they need," the agency said in a statement this week.

More mental health workers

In Liberia, the children's aid agency said it is training additional mental health workers to ensure children affected by the deadly virus get the support they need.

In neighboring Guinea, plans are under way to provide psychological support to 60,000 children and families affected by Ebola.

Comforting a child is a 'potential death sentence'

"Ebola is turning a basic human reaction like comforting a sick child into a potential death sentence," Fontaine said. "The vast majority of the children affected by Ebola are still left without appropriate care. We cannot respond to a crisis of this nature and this scale in the usual ways. We need more courage, more creativity, and far, far more resources."

The U.N. children's agency said it has received only 25% of the $200 million it needs for emergency assistance for families affected by Ebola in the region.

Affected nations are reporting grim numbers as the deadly virus takes its toll.

'Untold numbers of children are dying'

In Sierra Leone, about 765 new cases were reported last week, which is a rate of five every hour, according to Save the Children. The aid group said there are only 327 beds available for Ebola patients in the country.

"Untold numbers of children are dying anonymously at home or in the streets," Save the Children said.

Ebola has killed more than 3,000 people in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, and the United Nations says those numbers are vastly under-reported.

Meanwhile, Sierra Leone's President Ernest Koroma is missing an Ebola donor conference in London because his British-chartered plane had technical problems, the British Foreign Office said Thursday, an hour before he was due to give a news conference with British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond.

"We are currently exploring alternative ways for the President to participate in the conference," the Foreign Office told CNN.

I too live in Texas, less than 5 miles from the Presby Hospital.

I have a question maybe someone can answer.

Who or what organization paid this man's airfare to come to the US?

I think that we have the right to know who is paying for these peoples airfair. Don't you?:angry:

I saw an interview.
A Dr. coming back was filmed aboard the airplane.
He talked to several Africans. All of them say they HOPE they haven't been infected. They fly back and forth on pleasure and business.

They have to fill out a security questionnaire before they are allowed to board.

No telling how many infected are coming in every day, who they are, where they will change planes or where they are destined.

This little example of available flights is from Cheap Flights.

they will house the overflow.. in the morgue... where else...noway

Where will they quarantine, 10's to millions of people they prove to be infected?
Just allow them to roam the streets?

This was part of the article.


The number of cases in West Africa are currently doubling every three weeks. By year's end, it's expected more than a million people in Africa will be infected.

Is there some sort of illusion that can't happen in the rest of the world?

Globally hospitals went into a state of panic and were ill equipped to cope with h1n1 when it first appeared .. So yes I agree. . Ebola will be an even bigger challenge .

I have been following this story and seeing pictures of the dead that were found a couple weeks post-mortem. The virus had eaten all the flesh, leaving the entire muscular system exposed.
most hospitals have limited isolation rooms with a specialised pressure system to prevent contagions from spreading and infecting others. They cannot be nursed in a general ward. For example the hospital i work in is a large metropolitan hospital and we only have six isolation rooms .

Where will they house the overflow?

Ebola May Spread in Dallas Homeless Community
Homeless man reportedly rode in ambulance after Thomas Eric Duncan
Ebola May Spread in Dallas Homeless Community

by Infowars.com | October 5, 2014

Police in Dallas are searching for a homeless man who rode in an ambulance after Thomas Eric Duncan, the Ebola patient currently in critical condition at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital.

We are working to locate the individual and get him to a comfortable, compassionate place where we can monitor him and care for his every need for the full incubation period, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins explained in an emailed message. I want to emphasize that he is a low risk individual and we are doing this out of precautionary measures.

Although the ambulance was reportedly quarantined after Duncan was delivered to the hospital and its crew told to stay home for 21 days, officials were unable to explain why the homeless man was in the ambulance and why he was released back into the community.

Poor hygiene and substance abuse among the homeless may exacerbate the spread of the disease.

Good point, Bro.drinker

I read the topic where close to one hundred people have been in contact and being watched for the symptoms.

If I lived near Dallas and could get away, I'd pick up my family and go.

I'd hate to have to watch my grandchildren be eaten alive by this plague.

After the shock of finding ebola in Texas, people are concerned their hospitals aren't ready for dealing with pandemics.

Rightly so, in my opinion.

SEATTLE -- The confirmed Ebola case in Texas has many asking whether our local hospitals would be ready if a similar situation happened in Seattle or Western Washington. KING 5 took that question to the man who would lead King County's response to such a threat.

Dr. Jeff Duchin is the Chief of Communicable Disease for Seattle and King County Public Health.

He says he wasn't surprised to hear about the Ebola case in Dallas. He also wouldn't be surprised if a similar situation happened here.

"The number of cases in West Africa is increasing every day," he said. "So yes, I think the chances are low, but I think, it would not be surprising if we had a case of Ebola virus in Seattle."

That's why he's been working with local hospitals, to make sure they're ready if and when that happens.

"The key is asking the right questions, identifying patients early, getting them isolated," he said. "We're asking and expecting all of our hospitals to be prepared to both identify and appropriately manage patients who have Ebola virus infection.

Duchin says the process starts with asking patients whether they've traveled out of the country in the last 21 days, specifically to an area where the Ebola outbreak is taking place.

He understands why the confirmed case in Dallas is concerning to a lot of people, but echoed the CDC's sentiment that the risk of an outbreak in the U.S. is almost non-existent due to our strong healthcare infrastructure.

He also wants to remind people in King County that a person with the Ebola virus has to actually be ill to spread the virus to others.

"It's not an easy infection to catch," he said. "You have to have close contact with blood or body fluids from an infected patient."

The number of cases in West Africa are currently doubling every three weeks. By year's end, it's expected more than a million people in Africa will be infected.

If it happens in Seattle or King County, Duchin says public health is ready.

"I think the risk is low, but we have to be prepared for it," he said.


What say you?
