According to the Center for Aerobiological Sciences, U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases at Fort Detrick, Maryland:

(1) Ebola has an aerosol stability that is comparable to Influenza-A

(2) Much like Flu, Airborne Ebola transmissions need Winter type conditions to maximize Aerosol infection

"Filoviruses, which are classified as Category A Bioterrorism Agents by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Atlanta, GA), have stability in aerosol form comparable to other lipid containing viruses such as influenza A virus, a low infectious dose by the aerosol route (less than 10 PFU) in NHPs, and case fatality rates as high as ~90% ."

"The mode of acquisition of viral infection in index cases is usually unknown. Secondary transmission of filovirus infection is typically thought to occur by direct contact with infected persons or infected blood or tissues.

There is no strong evidence of secondary transmission by the aerosol route in African filovirus outbreaks. However, aerosol transmission is thought to be possible and may occur in conditions of lower temperature and humidity which may not have been factors in outbreaks in warmer climates.

At the very least, the potential exists for aerosol transmission, given that virus is detected in bodily secretions, the pulmonary alveolar interstitial cells, and within lung spaces".


Analysis:

It's clear that when Ebola is in the air it is at least as hardy as Influenza.

It's also clear that coughing and sneezing is what makes Influenza airborne; the same should be expected of Ebola.

Moreover, just as sun, heat, and humidity along the Earths' Equatorial regions serve to 'burn' Influenza out of the air, the same should be expected of Ebola.

The difference with Ebola is that physical contact with even the tiniest amounts of infected bodily fluid can cause infection, hence unlike flu it also readily spreads in equatorial regions.

When Ebola spreads to the regions of the Earth which experience Fall and Winter Flu seasons, airborne Ebola infectious routes are to be expected in conjunction with direct contact infection.

Ebola has the capability to infect pretty much every cell in the entire human respiratory tract.

Similarly, our skin offers little resistance to even the smallest amounts of Ebola.

How much airborne transmission will occur will be a function of how well Ebola induces coughing and sneezing in its victims in cold weather climates. Coughing and nasal bleeding are both reported symptoms in Africa, so the worst should be expected.

In that regard, co-infections with Flu, Cold, or even seasonal Allergies will readily transform Ebola victims into biowarfare factories.

Unlike Flu, a person need not inhale airborne Ebola to be infected via airborne transmission. Merely walking through an airspace (or touching the objects therein) where an Ebola victim has coughed or sneezed is potentially enough for a cold weather infection to occur.

As such, all indicators are that Ebola's potential rate of infectious spread in cold weather climates is EXPLOSIVELY greater than what is occurring in Equatorial Africa.


Mutation:

Given that the experts are keenly aware that most mutations lead to viral dead ends and given the ARMY's public research documents make such a clear case that the Ebola airborne risk is here and now, the question remains: why are the experts pushing a "future mutation" fear on the public?


The primary benefits of the media mutation gambit are:

1) When the public becomes aware Ebola is airborne, the public will default to blaming a mutation rather blaming the experts for having prior knowledge of Ebola's transmission ability

2) A scary future fear makes for great immediate fund raising from a public seeking to avoid it.

3) The expert clique comes down hard on experts that do anything which is perceived to immediately raise public fear, an accurate warning to the public can immediately negatively affect a forthright expert's budget and prestige.

4) Public knowledge of imminent Public Health threats negatively affects supply chains and the logistics planned responses.

The next time some expert pushes the Ebola mutation risk ask them to specify exactly what mutations would be required to do as they claim.

When they refuse, ask why experts spelled out the mutation steps of Avian Influenza and why they won't for Ebola.

The answer is: Ebola can already infect pretty much every cell in the human respiratory system.

Wow.  I started running a fever today - low at 99° which is a bout a degree above My normal (yes, I tend to run at about 98°) - and scratchy throat - but no nausea.  Hope They haven't sprayed Us with the virus yet...

[ArMaP]

Hope They haven't sprayed Us with the virus yet...

Why would "they" spray that particular area? 

[Wrabbit2000]

Why would "they" spray that particular area? 

I'm still back on the question of why authority would spray any area with a lethal viral agent. Eventually, it's not brilliant population control, eh? It's why stockpiles were made during the last 40-50 years...but as far as I know, never once used. Even the world powers understand that Bio agents can't be turned off, and can't be controlled, once let loose to run.

Eventually, the reaper comes to knock on the door of the ones who released it, IMO. Viruses even morph just often enough so authority would understand, cures existing the day it breaks out may well be worthless by the time it comes calling. So, I'm not anywhere close to sold on this being artificial. If it is, getting to the people who would think it up for the criminal insanity this would suggest they've fallen into is more important than the bug itself.

[Wrabbit2000]

To add the latest for keeping up with.....It seems one of the Docs brought back and recovered in the US is back in the Hospital.

(CNN) -- An American patient treated for Ebola in Nebraska then released is now in isolation in a hospital in Massachusetts. And an Ebola patient in Dallas has slipped into critical condition.

Dr. Richard Sacra, who had been previously treated for Ebola, went to an emergency room early Saturday in Boston with a cough and fever, said missionary organization Serving in Mission. He was afraid he might have pneumonia.

Because of his previous infection, he was transferred to the UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester, the center said in a statement.

The medical data out there states that the Ebola virus can be found in bodily fluid (Semen in particular, as being documented) for as much as 7 weeks following clinical recovery.

This would be a real bad time to find it can also relapse...wouldn't it? Errr.... I sure wish this Virus had appeared more than it has in the past. They'd know more about it.

Where Ebola and similar topics are concerned, there is one very important thing to keep in mind, kids.

They want you to be constantly afraid.

Fear serves the cabal's purposes in two ways.

a}  When you are afraid, you do not want freedom.  You are more likely to be attracted to authoritarian governments which seem to have all the answers, and which can tell you how to think, where to go, and what to do, without you needing to go to the trouble of having to figure all of that out yourself.  In a state of extreme fear, you are generally also going to be feeling extremely non-sovereign, which will in turn mean that you will think that you don't even have the ability to make those sorts of decisions for yourself in the first place.

b}  The principle of sympathetic resonance is what determines which astral construct or physical timeline we go to next.  You go from one timeline to the next, about once every billionth of a second or so.  If the cabal can keep you constantly thinking about war, disease, terrorism, and fascism, then they will ensure that the thoughts (and more importantly, emotions) that you are broadcasting, will cause you to continually be attracted to timelines which contain more and more of those things.

I am not suggesting not to be informed; or even to avoid this topic if it's something you want to talk about.  Just be aware of the game that is being played against you, and the reasons for it.

On April 8th Congress was informed by the the Department of Defense [DoD] that because of emerging threats JBAIDS hemorrhagic fever assays have been deployed to National Guard units of all 50 States.

"By partnering with the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command and the Food and Drug Administration, we have made accessible additional diagnostic assays for high consequence, low probability biological threat agents for use during declared public health emergencies.

This collaboration has facilitated the availability of viral hemorrhagic fever diagnostic assays for use during a declared emergency and adds previously unavailable preparedness capabilities to this fielded system...

...To address the need for a near term capability to combat emerging threat materials, we have already provided Domestic Response Capability kits to the National Guard weapons of mass destruction civil support teams resident in all 50 states.

These kits provide emerging threat mitigation capability that includes detection, personnel protection, and decontamination."

It is unclear how real or imminent the threat may be, but it is clear that a massive surge of Governmental spending and preparedness has occurred since Hemorrhagic H7N9 Bird Flu came on the scene in 2013 and those preparedness activities are accelerating as EBOLA has started to gain momentum in Africa.

There are multiple vignettes one could put forth for these governmental activities ranging from simple wasteful defense spending to airborne mutated EBOLA, or an expected biological first strike prelude to WW3. The preparations seem to lean towards the latter.

Rather than worry about the situation, the best course of action is be aware of the unusual military equipment which would be utilized in a defense situation, as such information will provide leading edge risk mitigation actionable information to threats that may result in mass panic or mass quarantine.

In that regard, spotting the field use of the biomedical equipment shown below is an extremely strong indicator that a Biodefense operation is underway.

Pay special attention to the JBAIDS device shown below, its presence at any medical or field facility is prima facie evidence of a high risk medical event of disastrous proportion. For mobile applications the JBAIDS device is carried in the Bio sampling vehicles shown below.

Joint Biological Agent Identification and Diagnostic System [JBAIDS]





Safeguarding Humanity
At BioFire Defense we deliver a fully integrated suite of biological agent identification products, including the FilmArray system, and life science systems to the biodefense and first responder community. Our products and services speed up medical results, help people stay healthy and make communities more secure. Simply put, we make the world a safer and healthier place.

JBAIDS System | BioFire Defense
On September 2003, BioFire Diagnostics, Inc. was awarded the JBAIDS (Joint Biological Agent Identification and Diagnostic System) contract. The JBAIDS program was created to provide rapid positive identification and diagnostic confirmation of biological warfare agents and other pathogens of operational concern for the four branches of the U.S. Military: U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and U.S. Marine Corps.

The JBAIDS instrument evolved from the R.A.P.I.D. System for this contract as a reusable, portable, and modifiable system capable of simultaneous, reliable identification of multiple biological warfare agents and pathogens of operational concern and clinical significance.

This instrument is configured to support reliable, quick, and specific identification of biological agents from various clinical specimens and environmental samples. It also enhances force protection by providing medical personnel and commanders an expedient means to reliably and quickly identify naturally occurring or intentional biological threats. BioFire Diagnostics' R.A.P.I.D.® System (the predecessor to the JBAIDS System) outperformed eight other competitors for the contract.

Today, the JBAIDS program is moving forward at great speed outfitting the US Military with the latest in biological warfare detection systems. This program has allowed BioFire Diagnostics to expand their military and commercial products and services as well as allowed them to build strong relationships throughout the defense community.

NOTE:
The JBAIDS System is a defense article controlled for export under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), administered by the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. The transfer of any hardware or technical data controlled by the ITAR to any unauthorized persons, requires prior written approval for from the U.S. Department of State.

This is the new Doom Porn, fear inducing non-crisis.  It is not pleasant but it is not the apocalypse really.

I'm wish I could avoid being notified about this topic but it is in breaking news.

I believe you are correct...problem...reaction...solution...and they come up with the solution which will favor big government.  It's nice to have the system in place just in case.

I hear ya and I'm seeing the same thing. The discussion here is limited, about what is actually changing and as it changes, and really not much in the 'OMG! The SKY is raining bodies!". I looked around the net a bit at lines of discussion in other places and ... uhhh... I thought Y2k or the Elenin scare had been something. The reaction IS getting totally out of hand to the actual threat. The word hysteria comes to mind as close, if not quite appropriate yet.

Of course, I hate to see people with little more than MSM news to know anything about this, think it's as much a non-event as some there make it sound. Its no joke of course. It's just not more than potential threat. Especially while there is no uncontrolled transmission with new cases here, it's still all potentials and no realities. Who knows.. It may even remain that way.

On the scale of potential threats? I believe I recall the absurdity of living in a place as a child where we grew up knowing our deaths in a couple of nano seconds would be precisely 7-14 minutes from launch to eternity...and it wouldn't even end there, since Southern California was among the target areas the Soviets were going to drill with warheads for the underground stuff. Ebola ranks about a 3 with the end years of the Cold War being the 10 to scale it with. It has a long way to go yet, to become immediate.

[Sinny]

The CDC says that in the event of an Ebola outbreak in the U.S., bodies of the deceased would be required to be buried within "hermetically sealed caskets", which would prevent the escape of microbes during funerals. An administrator of the Dallas Institute of Funeral Service interviewed in the article states that he has never come across any such caskets in the industry, meaning, hermetically sealed coffins are NOT common. The CDC coffins in Madison, Georgia, though, ARE designed to prevent the spread of infection. In fact, the patent for these coffins confirms this!


This would suggest that the CDC has stockpiled such coffins...specifically in preparation for a viral outbreak.

Meaning the CDC has been expecting the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans due to infection for at least the past SIX YEARS!
A lot of preparation generally requires certainty...

For your inspection.

[Wrabbit2000]

Well, I hate to say it, but there is a big piece to add for the domestic march of this little beastie. A second nurse is symptomatic, as we all have likely heard by now, and connected to the original U.S. patient.

2nd Texas health worker tests positive for Ebola

The above story came first, and before the real orgy of hype got running. The hype has been interesting to watch build by headline summaries over the last few hours, and as detail of how this happened has come to be known. I think one of the key points I first wondered was how this woman could possibly have gotten on an aircraft to fly to Cleveland and back? I mean, really? She's a health professional. Surely she had been advised to stay home for a bit and watch for symptoms?

Well... Not really, and it is part of the building record of how this is unfolding.

CBS News Medical Correspondent Dr. John LaPook reports that Vinson called the CDC several times before boarding the plane concerned about her fever.

"This nurse, Nurse Vinson,  did in fact call the CDC several times before taking that flight and said she has a temperature, a fever of 99.5, and the person at the CDC looked at a chart and because her temperature wasn't 100.4 or higher she didn't officially fall into the category of high risk."

Source

Now the authorities are stating that odds of infection from her and the air travel is minimal. I hope they are correct. To avoid adding to the hype out there at the moment (and wow.....this one is beyond much else I've seen in my life for that aspect of things) it is probably enough to say the CDC is running a full effort for tracking contacts related to the flight to Ohio and back.

I suppose there isn't too much else to say but that time will tell, and for better or worse, it shouldn't take long to know.

Are You able to Shelter in Place for 90 Days?

Published on Oct 4, 2014
America is going to be on lockdown soon so you must prepare yourself for civil unrest and violence and control on a level that no one has ever seen.

As we are coming into Flu Season while Ebola is running rampant in Africa and showing sure signs of a Major outbreak here in the United States.

We need to ask ourselves: When is the time to shelter in place?
The powers that be have been preparing for this for a long time.
They have their plan.
Now is the time.

Connecticut declared in state of 'public health emergency,' prepares for quarantine
from Peak Crackers

10 October 2014
We warned a week ago of the various possibilities surrounding an Ebola outbreak in America, and today we get some degree of confirmation of a medical-based martial-law coming to the US.

Governor Dan Malloy has declared a Public Health Emergency in Connecticut, authorizing the "isolation of any individual reasonably believed to have been exposed to the Ebola virus."

Simply put, as we noted previously, the State of Public Health Emergency allows bureaucrats to detain and force-vaccinate people without due process – despite not one single case being found in CT.

If there is a major Ebola pandemic in America, all of the liberties and the freedoms that you currently enjoy would be gone.

"I hereby declare a public health emergency for the State, pursuant to the Connecticut General Statutes Section 19a-131a, for the duration of the epidemic. Specifically, in accordance with Connecticut General Statutes Section 19a-131b, I authorize the Commissioner of Public Health to Order the isolation or quarantine, under conditions prescribed by the Commissioner of Public Health, of any individual or group of individuals whom the Commissioner reasonably believes to have been exposed to, infected with, or otherwise at risk of passing the Ebola virus."

Which he defended as a precautionary and preparatory measure in the event that the state has either a confirmed infection or has confirmed that someone at risk of developing the infection is residing in the state.

"We are taking this action today to ensure that we are prepared, in advance, to deal with any identified cases in which someone has been exposed to the virus or, worst case, infected,"[/i] said Governor Malloy.  "Our state's hospitals have been preparing for it, and public health officials from the state are working around the clock to monitor the situation.  Right now, we have no reason to think that anyone in the state is infected or at risk of infection.

But it is essential to be prepared and we need to have the authorities in place that will allow us to move quickly to protect public health, if and when that becomes necessary.  Signing this order will allow us to do that."


Translated... as we previously noted:

If there is a major Ebola pandemic in America, all of the liberties and the freedoms that you currently enjoy would be gone.

If government officials believe that you have the virus, federal law allows them to round you up and detain you "for such time and in such manner as may be reasonably necessary."

In addition, the CDC already has the authority to quarantine healthy Americans if they reasonably believe that they may become sick.

During an outbreak, the government can force you to remain isolated in your own home, or the government may forcibly take you to a treatment facility, a tent city, a sports stadium, an old military base or a camp.

You would not have any choice in the matter.

And you would be forced to endure any medical procedure mandated by the government.

That includes shots, vaccines and the drawing of blood.

During such a scenario, you can scream about your "rights" all that you want, but it won't do any good.

In case you are tempted to think that I am making this up, I want you to read what federal law actually says.  The following is 42 U.S.C. 264(d).  I have added bold for emphasis...


(1) Regulations prescribed under this section may provide for the apprehension and examination of any individual reasonably believed to be infected with a communicable disease in a qualifying stage and (A) to be moving or about to move from a State to another State; or (B) to be a probable source of infection to individuals who, while infected with such disease in a qualifying stage, will be moving from a State to another State. Such regulations may provide that if upon examination any such individual is found to be infected, he may be detained for such time and in such manner as may be reasonably necessary. For purposes of this subsection, the term "State" includes, in addition to the several States, only the District of Columbia.
(2) For purposes of this subsection, the term "qualifying stage", with respect to a communicable disease, means that such disease—
(A) is in a communicable stage; or
(B) is in a pre-communicable stage, if the disease would be likely to cause a public health emergency if transmitted to other individuals.

In addition, as I discussed above, the CDC already has the authority to isolate people that are not sick to see if they do become sick.  The following is what the CDC website says about this...

Quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of well persons who may have been exposed to a communicable disease to see if they become ill. These people may have been exposed to a disease and do not know it, or they may have the disease but do not show symptoms. Quarantine can also help limit the spread of communicable disease.
*  *  *
And as Police State USA summarizes.
Governor Dannel Malloy has declared Connecticut to be in a state of public health emergency, enabling the indefinite suspension of certain civil rights. State bureaucrats have been granted the broad authority to forcibly detain suspected sick people without due process. The declaration came preemptively, as Connecticut has not yet seen a single case of the virus it purports to stop.

Rationalizing his actions, the governor said in a statement: "We need to have the authorities in place that will allow us to move quickly to protect public health, if and when that becomes necessary. Signing this order will allow us to do that."

The recipient of most of the newly-imparted power is Jewel Mullen, Connecticut's Commissioner of the Department of Public Health (DPH). By having this measure in place, Commissioner Mullen explained, "we don't have to scramble in the event I need to take action."

The actions that authorities might want to "scramble" to use is the forcible quarantine of citizens — without charges or trial.

Connecticut General Statutes Section 19a-131a spells out the powers that may be used during the state of public health emergency:

"[While] the emergency exists [the state] may do any of the following: (1) Order the commissioner to implement all or a portion of the public health emergency response plan developed pursuant to section 19a-131g; (2) authorize the commissioner to isolate or quarantine persons in accordance with section 19a-131b; (3) order the commissioner to vaccinate persons in accordance with section 19a-131e; or (4) apply for and receive federal assistance."

As noted above, the Commissioner may issue an order of mass vaccination at his or her own discretion.
