Re: Ebola outbreak in Africa
Well, it apparently IS a racist virus, as most of the victims are black.

Re: Ebola outbreak in Africa
His neighborhood is pretty close to the White Rock Trail greenway. I've seen lots of stray dogs and coyotes running around there, and we know how dogs are about vomit.Rex B wrote:"...study from the CDC’s website [PDF] called “Ebola Virus Antibody Prevalence in Dogs and Human Risk,” the point of which is that there is some evidence that dogs can contract Ebola and spread it while remaining completely asymptomatic."

Yeah and that vomit was there on the side walk in covered for two days.
I was a SAMs and got 1500 pair of latex gloves yesterday. Got an extra gallon of bleach Friday night.
BTW it's 10 percent bleach with water. May get some full face shields this weekend at Home Depot. I already have a bunny suit I saved from my last visit to the lab.

Re: Ebola outbreak in Africa
Spanish nurse's dog has been executed.
This obviously will encourage people who have pets to go to the hospital if they have been exposed to Ebola and feel sick.

Not sure what it costs to test a dog or how long they'd have to quarantine it, (and much more isolated than a normal animal quarantine) but I'm guessing euthanasia was the only affordable option given that the owner was already dead and wouldn't be paying the bill.

Family upset at "unfair" treatment of their dead relative. Photo with Jesse Jackson.
So any guesses how much the "unfair" treatment will cost the taxpayers of Dallas. (not counting anyone else he gave it to and their treatment)

Re: Ebola outbreak in Africa
Nurse is alive. Probably isn't helping her spirits in fighting the disease that her dog was executed today.KD5NRH wrote:Dogs can be asymptomatic carriers. http://www.alloutdoor.com/2014/10/02/ebola-fido/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;philip964 wrote:Spanish nurse's dog has been executed.

Unfair? The guy lied and in the process exposed a country to a deadly disease. I'd call THAT unfair.philip964 wrote:http://abcnews.go.com/Health/family-tex ... d=26050956
