THAT IS NO..."No one in Ohio is at risk." THAT IS NOT TRUE. In fact, all of us are. All it was ever going to take was one infected person getting on a plane, infecting countless others, who will now go on to infect countless others. The CDC never had the ability to prevent the spread of this disease, and unfortunately the only ones who did - those who were potentially infected - have chosen not to. This is why I posted what I did. We need to prepare. NOW. That means self-quarantine, and to the great extent possible, remaining home and living off of whatever food and other supplies you have right now. I do not recommend that anyone even go shopping at this point, but, if you have to, do it now. You are less likely to be exposed today than you will tomorrow or any subsequent day. If you are exposed to this virus, there is a 70 to 90% chance you will die horribly. So don't allow yourself to get exposed any sooner than you must, and hope and pray that some kind of effective treatment, prevention, or cure will exist by the time you are exposed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6797182962943872595.post-74884926874229289732014-10-02T15:26:10.924-07:002014-10-02T15:26:10.924-07:00I'm not sure I can agree with all of the assum...I'm not sure I can agree with all of the assumptions underlying this argument. I would like to throw them out there and I would appreciate any kind of factual rebuttal, because I REALLY hope I'm wrong about this.<br /><br />First, are we being told the whole truth by the CDC and other governmental agencies? Could they be withholding information so as to avoid panic?<br /><br />Second, while Ebola is not *currently* considered to be airborne, could it not mutate to become more harmful than its ancestors, as viruses are known to do?<br /><br />Third, does the official narrative "add up"? How did so many knowledgeable healthcare workers, including experts in hemorrhaegic viruses, get infected and die in Africa in spite of having state-of-the-art protective measures, if Ebola can truly be contained by those measures?<br /><br />Finally, and perhaps most controversially, are we setting ourselves up for unnecessary pandemics by consuming and feeding children diets full of things that harm their immune systems, such as high-glycemic carbs, trans fats, fish contaminated by heavy metals, and so forth? <br /><br />I don't see a need to panic, yet, but I do recommend that people be prepared. What if the CDC is wrong, deliberately or otherwise? What if someone decides to deliberately infect large numbers of Americans? What if your children's diet sucks, as ours did until recently, to the point where they are making themselves more prone than they should be to infections and cancers in general? These are things we can be aware of, and address.<br /><br />I greatly respect the opinions of Dr .Lavin and Advanced Pediatrics. I hope and pray - hard, and often - that they are correct, that I am mistaken, and that Ebola will soon be contained here and in Africa and everyplace else it is now. But, just in case I am correct, I advise caution, prudence, preparation, and spending lots and lots of quality time with your kids now, because, Ebola or not, tomorrow is never guaranteed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
