A “large percentage” of illegals captured trying to enter the United States through Mexico are from West Africa, said the commander of the U.S. Southern Command (Southcom) in explaining how his team is keeping an eye on the Ebola crisis.
West Africans are traveling through the Western Hemisphere on their way into the United States illegally and coming in contact with nations that are ill-prepared to handle an Ebola outbreak.

Speaking to an audience at the National Defense University in Washington D.C. on October 7, U.S. Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly, the SOUTHCOM commander, said that U.S. government agencies are “certainly aware of the possibility, and likelihood frankly, of Ebola coming to the Western Hemisphere."

Gen. Kelly noted that he thinks Ebola will eventually reach the Western Hemisphere, adding that the “nightmare scenario is right around the corner” and his team is preparing for it.

“Of the homeland security folks doing their work on our southwest border, of the number of people they capture, a very large percentage of them are West Africans,” Gen. Kelly told the audience.

The West Africans area coming in contact with individuals in Western Hemisphere nations on their way into the United States.

He related a story of a group of Liberians who were spotted on the Costa Rica-Nicaragua border on their way into the U.S. illegally.

“They had flown in to I think Trinidad and then met up with traffickers and now are on the way in,” said Gen. Kelly. “They could have made it into New York City and still be within the incubation period of Ebola.”

“So I go back to this issue and I’ve highlighted this issue in Washington that if there is an outbreak in the caribbean particularly or in Central America, it will make the 68,000 unaccompanied children, I think, look like a small problem,” he continued.

Countries in the Western Hemisphere are ill-prepared to deal with an Ebola outbreak, according to the general.

HHS secretary: There may be other cases of Ebola in the U.S.
BY PHILIP KLEIN | OCTOBER 9, 2014 | 10:21 AM




Secretary of Health and Human Services Sylvia Burwell said that despite the best efforts of health officials, Americans have to prepare for the reality that there may be more cases of Ebola in the United States.

“We had one case and I think there may be other cases, and I think we have to recognize that as a nation,” Burwell said at a media breakfast hosted by the journal Health Affairs and held at the Washington, D.C. offices of the Kaiser Family Foundation.

Burwell’s comments come as screening of travelers from Ebola-affected countries in West Africa has been stepped up at U.S. airports. On Wednesday, the first patient diagnosed with the virus on U.S. soil died in Texas.

She expressed confidence in the screening process that has already been in place in travelers' departure cities, but acknowledged that no such system is 100 percent.

“The most important place with regard to taking care of screening is actually at the point of departure,” she said. “And that’s been in place for many months and as we know, we have a case. That case sadly is deceased. But for many months, we did not have a case that entered the country. And we know that that screening has worked in the sense of 80 people have been pulled from the lines in the screening and stopped in the home country. And that’s the most important place to do that.”

She said that there was a massive effort at preparing the healthcare system to deal with any cases that may arise.

“What’s most important is we know how to contain," she said. "And that is: detect, contact tracing, isolation, and treatment.”

She said that 8,000 healthcare providers have been on Centers for Disease Control and Preventionwebinars and hundreds of thousands of health care workers have been communicating through an alert network.

Huh? Best efforts? WHAT efforts?

The majority of US citizens want to see no flights into the US from Ebola infected countries yet Odumbo continue to allow such.

We hear that TSA and flight attendants will check for possible Ebola cases?

Those are our best efforts?

Well, if the libtards can't import the disease via open borders, there's always the orphans:

In Liberia's large, deeply religious families, there is usually an aunty somewhere willing to take in a child who has lost a parent. But Ebola, and the fear of contagion and death, is now unraveling bonds that have lasted for generations.

At least 3,700 children across Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone have lost one or more parents to Ebola, according to the U.N. children's agency, and that figure is expected to double by mid-October. Many of these children are left to fend for themselves, and continue to live inside infected houses.

Maybe not. Would you want to work on a plane flying out of Ebolaland?

An Ebola strike began at LaGuardia Airport in New York City over fears of contracting the deadly virus. The airport workers strike currently involves only Terminal D workers, but air travel could still be impacted by the walk-off and protests.

I'm talking about TSA workers at Dulles, Laguardia, etc. having their eyes open for potential Ebola patients. I don't see that as much of a serious effort. Shutting down flights short term likely is a better option and supported by about 60% of the US in a poll out today.

I saw that they went on strike in NY ... medical workers in African country are ready to (or have) walked off demanding more pay. I saw max pay for a high level nurse was maybe $500/week.
