Yes
If man wants fly he should become a bird or house fly.
Instead man made flying sardine cans.
This is cave man technology.
Yogis can instantly fly anywhere and to other planets.
Stupid modern scientists can't fly anywhere worth the sh!t in their sardine machines ....

Perhaps they should put a hundred Ebola corpse's thru a tree shedder and rain it down on ISIS.
Happy Halloween.

Danke, Herr Braun. You seem to always report on things that I've only sometimes heard of.

Anyone who's done drills in NBC gear knows a bit how healthcare workers must suffer enormous fatigue and concentration loss when caring for these patients. I've sweated through four-hour ortho surgery in standard sterile garb in August that pales in comparison to even brief Ft. Hood drills BITD.
Much, much respect and thanks to those physicians, critical-care nurses, and staff who continue to 'free-solo', as healyje states.
I can barely imagine the stress.

Perhaps they should invest in watercooled underwear.

It seems to me they should come up with a training system where they contaminate the suits with a substance that glows in ultraviolet light.
So after they remove the protective gear they can spot if there is any contamination after removal of the PPE
Glogerm was designed for this. We used to use it at work to test biocontainment but we've now moved on to other micrometer sized fluorescent particles which are more easily suspended in the solutions we routinely handle.

Something is left out of the discussions too about these brave men and women who are knowingly collecting and treating dying Ebola-infected victims in third-word hellholes ....
They are truly real f'ing heroes. I sure as Hell wouldn't do it.

Ok, I know I am nuts , but what if you could create an "Ebola Box".
A small isolation chamber about 5 feet by 5 feet and 8 or ten feet long.
It would have a bed inside with a bedpan like device and a place to vomit in that would store the fluids.
Access to the victim would only be through heavy duty ports like in a chem lab where you reach through with thick gloves and a protective sleeve to administer IV's and such. A constant flow of air could be vented through a filter system.
That way the nurses and doctors would not have to suit up but would still be protected.
If the victim dies, the whole unit with the victim is incinerated. If they live, They come out after they are symptomatic and are decontaminated, then the whole box is incinerated.
They could come out of the box on their own into a de- contamination area with no help or contact with medical personal.
This would eliminate contact between medical personal and the contagion.
What do you doctors think?

Why not do nothing? One person has died from Ebola in the U.S., and about 10,000 people total. Obviously it is something that needs to be dealt with but most of the western world that is worried about Ebola would experience longer lives if they drove with more care, exercised and ate better.

It's voting season and there wasn't enough fear to keep the sheeple at home. Be very scared.

You're twice as likely to be killed by O.J.Simpson than you are by Ebola, at least here in the U.S.

What do you doctors think?
I takes on the aspects of torture.
Think of being confined in a coffin. Literally, as you describe it.
