Good question. I have already raised to Jeff I feel he's being very iron fisted in his management of this topic based on his own opinion of the situation. I love this site, but it puts me off that as the moderator he's being so partisan. It's obvious through his posts he's a democrat. Everyone has a right to comment...but it would be way more professional to log in under a different username.
Probably because it's been ruled out that he had EBola. Jeff is likely trying to keep the rumors, fear mongering, and conspiracy theorists from overtaking this forum. I'm sure there are many other sites you can discuss this on.
Signed someone who isn't a fan of OBama but is glad Jeff is trying to control at least some of this from taking over the forum.

Why?
New poster--this thread is appalling to me. Posters seem to be actively rooting for an Ebola outbreak in this country because it would make President Obama look bad. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Gaslighting again I see. It doesn't work on me
Being alert and aware protects us all. In criminal situations, in health situations, in everyday situations. That's just fact

Yes! This is exactly the point! Add to that, who can we trust after being lied to by CDC?
When did the CDC lie? I know that you earlier posted saying that you believed Duncan's fiancé had ebola and the government was covering it up. Is that the "lie" you are describing?
They lied when they threw both nurses under the bus. They knew she traveled and they knew she called in. Please!

Please post messages like this in website feedback so that this thread does not get derailed (as it would have been by posting a message about a guy who didn't have ebola).
Determined by a cursory walk-on by CDC, not testing
Are you going to react this way to every African that vomits from now on? Nigeria has had practically no ebola. This is part and parcel of your and others' attempt to generate mass hysteria of the "everything has changed" style illustrated in a post above.
It's here now. Being prepared means staying alert. There is now a lecel 4 virus in this country that the CDC is being lax about. Everything has changed, my friend.
Being alert and aware is always prudent. In bars, in your home, walking outside. Read The Gift Of Fear. It highlights the balance quite well
Had i not been alert and aware, I would have not noticed the man following me in my car. I would have not noticed him hide his car behind a gas station row of pumps when I deliberately stopped at a populated convenience store. Worse yet, I could have dismissed my rational mind as hysterical, and allowed him to follow me home. Police tell me that without my rational, quick thinking, I would be a statistic today. So yes, I trust myself
Liberals like yourself adopt a laisse faire attitude about everything, making you dangerous to others. Then you gaslight by saying they are hysterical. I can't imagine being so naive - or so cruel
A man followed you to your car so you now need to post multiple posts about any African that vomits? Does that seem sane to you?

Oh, please.
The study found there was a twenty-five percent chance that we would see a case here. Despite this, the president said our overall Ebola vulnerability remains very low, which is true. Importing a single case does not equal a U.S. epidemic, as evidenced by the fact that we have seen only two additional cases since Duncan and none outside the hospital setting. The president was right. We will contain it, just as Nigeria did.
25% is not very low. why not say 'the study showed a 25% chance of it arriving on outpr shores by end of Sept". That's the truth, is. It not? How do you think people would have reacted to such news?
The President's CDC appt has lied multiple times, and has been caught in them.
I'm glad you have such faith. You are in the minority
You are being deliberately obtuse. The chances of a single case are not that low but the chances of a US epidemic are extremely low. The latter is what the president was speaking to. Why is this so difficult for you to understand?
I do understand it. I also understand that instead of simply releasing the findings of the study to the American public, and acting to reduce the immediate risk of a patient 0, he his it and chose to take the path he did. Ask yourself why.
So you agree then that Obama did not "lie". Glad to hear we're on the same page.
