In a video address to the people of West African countries, President Barack Obama stated that, “You cannot get it through casual contact like sitting next to someone on a bus.”
However, the CDC begs to differm, issuing advice to travelers, stating “avoid public transportation.”
“First, Ebola is not spread through the air like the flu,” Obama said in the video released by the White House Thursday. “You cannot get it through casual contact like sitting next to someone one a bus. You cannot get it from another person until they start showing symptoms of the disease, like fever.”
Obama also said that “the most common way you can get Ebola is by touching the body fluids of someone who is sick or has died from it, like their sweat, saliva or blood, or through a contaminated item like a needle.”
The CDC, however, is advising aid workers and others who travel to countries currently experiencing Ebola outbreaks to “avoid public transportation” if they develop a fever or experience other Ebola-like symptoms while on their trip.
Listed among their online recommendations for travelers journeying to Liberia, Guinea, Nigeria or Sierra Leone, the CDC advises travelers who begin to exhibit possible Ebola symptoms and choose to visit a doctor to “Limit your contact with other people when you travel to the doctor; avoid public transportation.”
The CDC also told travelers with Ebola symptoms, “Do not travel anywhere except to the doctor’s office or hospital.”
“If you get symptoms of Ebola, it is important to stay apart from other people and call your doctor right away,” the website continues.
The CDC also explains a person may contract Ebola if he or she “spends a long amount of time within three feet (one meter) of a person who is sick with Ebola.”
Recommended precautions to avoid contracting Ebola “includes wearing a mask over your mouth and nose, waterproof gloves, a gown (to protect clothing), and eye protection (goggles or a face shield – corrective glasses are not enough).”
On another page detailing Ebola exposure risks and “Public Health Actions,” the CDC reports there is “some risk of exposure” from “other close contact with an [Ebola] patient in health care facilities or community settings.” For these patients, the CDC recommends “If air transport is clinically appropriate and indicated, air medical transport only (no commercial conveyances permitted).”
Liar in Chief.
I wouldn’t believe this person if he were standing at my door !
Filthy lying POS rabid animal OBOLA
You see this fool doesn’t know. What he is doing let alone ruining our country he wants all to die.
The majority of nations and people in the world can easily accept the fact that Obama is a worthless jackass. So how could there STILL be liberals in this country that are so stupid that they would continue to support him?
Are we really so afraid of him calling us racist, that we allow him to send the troops, whom he hates, to their deaths, and insuring they will come home to infect us, and allowing unrestricted travel from the Ebola hotzones. WE WILL HAVE LOTS OF EBOLA HERE! It is guaranteed he is setting up the Ebola Pipeline, and wishing to kill us. Is it really true that nothing can be done; that we must pay our lives to him, because he will call us racist if we will not pay our lives, and our country, and our souls? According to the Non-Scriptural Decree of the New Order, “you owe, and you must pay, or you will be racist if you do not pay, and you cannot be racist.” Do we worship the devil, more than God? God says we do not owe. God says we will not pay. God says we will go to hell, if we pay, and to listen to no arguments that would make us pay, including The Decree, or the Race Card.
This admin will achieve the highest # of people to not trust our gov, it seems they want you to know they are lying. The way they contradict each others answers and questions all the time, it’s like saying it varies from person to person. You cannot have variables in an epidemic, either you can catch the virus a certain way, or not… Why is that so hard to get everyone on the same page of the story?
my god this man is a jeanus….
OBAMA LIES AGAIN>
History will note He allowed this Ebola into the country. unless dems write the books..lol
