    sick Ebola in the US!

    First case of Ebola reported in the US. How many more? This will be the first of many I reckon. lets hope it doesn't get airborne!

    Recently The US has bought some protection suits from a company called Lakeland industries.
    President and Chief Executive Officer of Lakeland Industries
    Christopher J. Ryan said "We understand the difficulty of getting appropriate products through a procurement system that in times of crisis favour availability over specification, and we hope our added capacity will help alleviate that problem. With the U.S. State Department alone putting out a bid for 160,000 suits, we encourage all protective apparel companies to increase their manufacturing capacity for sealed seam garments so that our industry can do its part in addressing this threat to global health.

    Default Re: Ebola in the US!

    I wonder if this is the news undercard to the fight against the current progress of those people trying to create a religious state in other peoples countries.

    The only treatment appears to be 1 to 1 care in isolation, treating the symptoms rather than the virus. A costly exercise for sure. How many Texans have health care that will cover that?

    With modern day air travel I'm actually suprised it hasn't popped up all over the world by now.
