How bad will Ebola get?

[Sunbiz1]

Pfizer and Co announced today a program for mass immunization, working in conjunction with CDC and assorted Federal agencies.

This of course will be funded w/tax $$.

Pfizer's stock just went through the roof...

I'm kidding, but it wouldn't surprise me.

The why is obvious. Exclusive rights to the profits of an invention.
So the is the real question is, "how"... unless the US actually invented ebola.

That's what you're getting at amirite?

That's the first thing that would come to mind but the patent was acquired in 2010. Ebola existed before then so this would have to be the invention of something like a bio-weapon. That is said to be the same as ebola plus it can be airborne. Why the CDC owns a patent, I'm still not so sure. One of the reasons I've seen much mention of is that it would be to help them find a vaccine for it and have exclusive rights to that vaccine but while the CDC is obviously in bed with the drug companies, who make billions off of vaccines, they do not, themselves, make vaccines nor would a US patent prevent any other country from making a vaccine.

But as we're in the midst of this outbreak, if you suddenly hear it can be transmitted through air, you know where it came from. And, of course, drug companies will make billions more on any vaccine for it that they put out there.

The world is too crowded, this could be nature's way of saying "stop procreating."

It is bound to happen, and sooner rather than later.


Airplanes make it very convenient.

Companies are patenting genomes. It doesn't mean they created them fuckidiots.

I have a serious issue with patenting genomes and living things.

yeah, me too.

A company tried to patent the human genome but the gov. blocked it. But companies are still patenting the sequences for specific proteins and shits.

You're the same guy who thought vaccines were free and drug companies make no money off them. Hahaha. I see a pattern of extreme ignorance here.

I never said any such thing.

Try harder, nerd.

Didn't mean to quote you, just bot. Strange things happen sometimes with tapatalk. Just watch that fresh mouth of yours in the future.

Or what, you'll rot my brain with your sub par trolling?

Nothing sub par about it. I'm a 2 time award winner. Not that it matters, none of you silly bastards seem to know the definition of the word anyway. With you goof balls, every time somebody says something you don't like or agree with, you just label it trolling.

You better step up your game if you want a three-peat.

Then again, I'm not allowed to respond to a certain fucktard nowadays so you may be able to eak it out again this year...

I see you've achieved self actualization.

Impressive.

By the true definition of the word, I have never trolled. It's just the perception of the dweebs that has brought me these awards.

Desbro, do you hang out with a guy named Brett often?

It's been around since 1976. Longer actually, that's just when it was discovered. I believe that it's transmitted through bodily fluid. It isn't airborne. We're gonna be fine.

The WHO has contradicted the CDC, and it can be spread airborne, and by touching an infected surface..They attempted to downplay this in an effort to keep people going to shop at malls, make sure they go to vote etc..They are more concerned about the economic implications then the health and safety of Americans..The situation hit defon dipshit level 4 status today as they now feel that the Kenosha county jail is a great place to monitor people for Ebola..smmfh...

“This is the same pseudoscience and scam the CDC perpetrated in 1967 after Ebola’s mother–the Marburg virus–broke out of three vaccine production plants simultaneously in Germany and Yugoslavia,” the doctor recalled.

Not going to lie, the idea of Mexico being safe from Ebola with US population border jumping to Mexico sounds like karma at its best. Time to shoot some honkeys.

I wish I was good enough to win forum awards.

They are more concerned about the economic implications then the health and safety of Americans..

It's looks more like they're completely incompetent. The 2nd nurse to catch ebola was given the OK to fly from Texas to Ohio after she called the CDC and told them she had a fever.

http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2014/10/15/ebola-patient-traveled-day-before-diagnosis/

“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.”

And now, despite previously claiming that there is no risk from being on the same plane as someone with ebola, the CDC is tracking down all the people that were on the same flight as the nurse.
