Dear Orly,

BREAKING: Possible Ebola Case at the Pentagon
By ARLnow.com – ARLNow.com
Friday – 10/17/2014, 2:12pm ET
Excerpt:
Medics responded to the Pentagon this morning for a report of a woman on a bus who was sick and vomiting. When they learned that she had recently arrived from Africa, the hazmat team was called out of “a complete abundance of caution,” Pentagon Force Protection Agency spokesman Chris Layman told ARLnow.com.
A large portion of the Pentagon south parking lot has been cordoned off with caution tape, and police are telling those who don’t work at the Pentagon to avoid the immediate surrounding area.
The woman, who reportedly got sick in the buses’ bathroom then got off at the Pentagon, was transported via ambulance to a Inova Fairfax Hospital. The county’s medical director also responded to the call and is at the hospital with the patient, according to scanner traffic.
Layman said the bus was at the Pentagon for a tour of the Pentagon Memorial.
A tipster with knowledge of the emergency response tells ARLnow.com that the patient recently traveled from the West African nation of Sierra Leone, and that four first responders are being held at the hospital due to possible exposure. That tip could not be immediately confirmed.
Excerpt:
The bus the woman was on was later stopped and detained near D.C.’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.

The 1918 Flu Virus Pandemic infected over 500 million people across the world, including the USA, remote Pacific islands and the Arctic, and killed 50 to 100 million of them, that’s a 10 to 20 percent death rate.
A large factor in the worldwide occurrence of this flu was increased travel. Modern transportation systems made it easier for soldiers, sailors, and civilian travelers to spread the disease.
Now we have Jumbo Jets and the Ebola Virus….. With a 70 to 90 percent death rate!

Yeah, boy…all it will take is for one of the biggies to get this disease and the planes will stop!
And it seems that the problem, too, is at the western african area. They need to stop allowing these damned planes to come here!
And if any of our guys in the National Guard come down with this, God help O for allowing them to come in contact with this 3rd world disease!

To tell you how everyone is scared of the Ebola thing…I’m a white senior citizen in WC Florida. I cut my knee today and am on blood thinners. I went to the emergency room and they grilled me to see if I had traveled to Africa and asked about any other problems.

Orly, maybe I am just missing it, but I don’t see this post anywhere.
Obama has been caught fast tracking people from affected areas on purpose. There is a gov link I can provide later when I get home if you want it. The thing is, I am all for helping people, but not to the detriment of US citizens. Plus, who all is paying for this?

I have to ask a pertinent question. What is a woman from a west African nation that is sick doing on a tour bus to the Pentagon? I mean, doesn’t anyone se a freaking problem with this?
