        Like he ever planned on going back. He has at least one anchor baby here, now that he faces prosecution in his home country he can ask for political asylum. He would very likely face a death sentence in Liberia.

        That and with an ongoing epidemic anyone here from Liberia can be granted Temporary Protected Status through the USCIS.

          In one study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Ebola virus lived on a surface in a perfectly controlled environment for up to six days.

          • Coughing and sneezing is considered droplet transmission. Its not airborne, its in the droplets being spewed through the air.

            Ebola is transmitted through body fluids. And anything can live a long time on in "perfect conditions". The ebola virus sitting on a handrail in the Texas sun is far from "perfect environment". The CDC estimated the flu can kill up to 50k people a year. Why are we worried about 3300 people over the course of 10 months in Africa?

                40 bags of waste a day from one patient.

                At Atlanta’s Emory University, where the first two U.S. Ebola patients were treated in August after contracting the disease in West Africa, as many as 40 bags of waste were generated each day, which placed a huge burden on the hospital’s waste disposal system, Emory’s Dr. Aneesh Mehta told colleagues at a medical meeting in September.
                Some companies don't want to touch it.

                The hospital’s waste hauler, Stericycle, initially refused to handle the material created by Emory’s Ebola patients, making the hospital wait for six days with waste piling up, before the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stepped in and brokered an emergency deal with the company.
                I am sure this "emergency deal" was worth $millions.

                            • Paramedics who attended to the Ebola diagnosed patient in Dallas were not contacted by hospital officials, local or state health officials, or the CDC to inform them that they were driving around in an ambulance that could be contaminated with the infectious virus.

                              According to a report by Breitbart News, one of the paramedics himself says that it was not until 48 hours after he had transported Thomas Duncan to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital that he was informed that he could be driving around in an Ebola contaminated death trap.

                              “[It was] 48 hours later before they finally took the ambulance out of service,” said Dallas Paramedic Geoffrey Aklinski in a discussion on Facebook, referring to the September 28th incident when Duncan was picked up, violently vomiting, at his apartment.

                              “None of them have been contacted. None of the paramedics that were on that shift and went in the ambulance were contacted. I’ve been off three days now. No one contacted me and I was in and drove that ambulance after it was infected.” Aklinski adds.

                              The Dallas Fire Department finally put the ambulance into quarantine on Wednesday, a full day after the diagnosis was made public. It is not known how many paramedics drove the ambulance during the 48 hour period or how many patients were transported.

                              “This is definitely a concern and exposed workers have not been contacted or tested… like me,” Aklinski notes. “I had to call into control in Dallas at 8 pm and complain to get evaluated.”

                              “Three days after the fact, I had to demand exposure testing and they are reporting following up with all the people in the ambulance??? Bull crap!!! They haven’t even followed up with the ten firefighters that were on duty Sunday.” Aklinski urges.

                              “How do you not test and contact the firefighters at the station on Sunday!!! Only the two medics and the intern on the ambulance? I was freaking in that ambulance hours later driving it!!! No one bothered to contact me about it?!!!” he adds.

                              Aklinski also claims that he has attempted to contact mainstream media outlets to get the story out, but has been rebuffed at every turn. “They just go with the official reports,” Aklinski, who is due to undergo a 3 week home quarantine, stated.

                              The revelations, if accurate, are the latest to add to a long list of clumsy reactions to the arrival of the virus in the US. On Wednesday, it was revealed that Duncan was sent home for 2 days with antibiotics by officials at the hospital because they did not test him for Ebola, despite the fact he told them he had traveled from Liberia.

                              The lax response by health officials has promoted the CDC to issue a nationwide alert to all hospitals updating them of how to appropriately respond to possible cases of the deadly disease.

                              Yesterday, images of unprotected workers cleaning up Duncan’s Ebola contaminated vomit emerged. The men in the images are not wearing masks, gowns, gloves or hazmat suits, and are simply washing away the vomit with water hoses. In addition, Duncan’s apartment, in which family members have been quarantined, was not decontaminated until yesterday evening.

                              In 2010, the Obama administration scrapped CDC Ebola directives outlining how to stop the virus spreading through the US, and has still not restricted any incoming flights from the Ebola hot zone, despite the fact that European countries did so weeks ago.
