At least one of the two will be taken to a hospital at Emory University, near the headquarters of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, hospital officials told CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta.

Walking Dead time.

Yeah but it only takes one thing to go wrong and Atlanta is fricked. And since we have the busiest airport in the world, it might turn into a pandemic.

They should be in a cabin in the middle of Alaska or something

No doubt, it is just like that a-hole that collapsed in the Nigerian airport on the way home to Minn. What a shithead coming back here after caring for his sister who had it. He should have known to get screened before leaving, but he was more worried he wouldn't make it home than he was about killing everyone when he got there.

As far as this one in Atlanta, we should send them elsewhere and exile the people that brought them here for bringing a biological weapon into the city. I can't believe these idiots are still volunteering to go over there, either. They are all going to die.

Yea, I hope those lab workers are doing better after getting exposed to anthrax last month...I would trust neither CDC or Emory.

They'll have that shite on lockdown. They absolutely wouldn't bring them back if they thought it might spread, even the smallest chance

Google the Yerkes center. The facility is guarded like a military base. Back in the day a lab researcher died from having a chimp with Hep A throw its jizz in her eye.

I'm impressed you guys are interested in this....most posters shite their pants from anything that is "scary" and has to do with real world issues.

So...how bad do you think this is for it to finally reach the attention of our media? If a pandemic was really beginning do you think they would put it on the evening news?

CDC is a client of of mine and I've been out there more times than I can count. I've also been to their satelite locations including Lawrencville where many of apes and dogs are housed.

Yes,security is tight at the main campus but it has little to do with
lab procedures and containment of viruses,contagions etc.

Once again,see the headlines from last month regarding the 3 lab workers exposed to an anthrax strain. The head of that particular lab has been "reassigned"....in any private sector facility he would've been fired.

I'm no expert but I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night so....I say the best way to fix all the problems and keep it contained is send them to the best hospital in Iran or Russia.

Last month it was MERS and this month it's Ebola.

MERS made it to the US and kills most of the people who contract it. I haven't seen it on the news in a minute after it was first diagnosed in the US. I don't think an Ebola outbreak will happen but you never know.

I wouldn't be surprised to see it, or something else, introduced to distract the public...

I wouldn't worry too much about Ebola. That being said, I think we (as humans) are long overdue for a virulent, highly contagious infectious disease. Hope that shite doesn't happen in my lifetime.
