TPT...Ahh, the old redundant guy chimes in again... TPTB are not willing to step up to the plate. Facts and the truth, mathematical certainty and the numbers don't lie. This post and the above comments should be required reading; the Lord knows that if survivors in the future find them and read them, they will be seen as prophetic. There is no time for vaccine, sorry. No time for training the thousands of health care workers. It is nearly too late to isolate, close borders, and keep the infected away from the uninfected. Remaining is this lone sentence, from the voice crying out in the wilderness...<br />"Civilization, to save what was remaining, became uncivilized. To save itself and halt the pandemic, mankind turned to.... napalm.

And leave of the giant "YET."<br /><br />Or the asshats that are saying that "it's only a couple of cases." Well dumbass, that's how it STARTS. It ends with the fall of civilization.<br /><br />And just maybe, Dr Arrogant really didn't screw up (but the way he's mugging for the camera in his PPE's--look at me in the silly suit! doesn't exactly spell seriousness) and this thing has finally gone airborne. Wouldn't that be a treat.<br /><br />I switched from 'local disaster' prepping to '6 months on my own' prepping a couple of months ago. Man-o-man am I glad I've got some bulk stored. Now it's just adding and fine tuning.<br /><br /><br /><br />Use your time wisely.<br /><br />nickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-31972330572921004522014-10-25T12:37:57.322-07:002014-10-25T12:37:57.322-07:00From my Facebook page.. no responses, I think peop...From my Facebook page.. no responses, I think people were stunned. <br /><br />I have completely given up on trying to smack down people who don't understand exponential growth. I'm done listening to people who say that listening to Fox News is what causes any fear of Ebola (I don't watch television news). I'm absolutely done trying to explain that it's too late for three African countries now - not because of beds but because of the lack of health care workers. If people haven't figured this out by now, then I figure what's coming is a worldwide freaking I.Q. test and nature's gonna have at it.<br />A pandemic is coming, and normalcy bias isn't gonna save any asses. Nobody can produce enough vaccine in time to save the world and if the exponential growth continues (remember Ebola's magic number - R2!) they have until SEPTEMBER of next year before the majority of the world is dead or managed to survive the outbreak. Period. End of. You can stop flights to delay things, but you're putting off the inevitable or giving vaccine makers enough time to save as many people as possible, but you show me ANY production lines that can produce 7.5 BILLION vials of vaccine in 2 years (2 years instead of 1 assuming people finally pull their heads out and institute strict quarantines - something they figured out in the fucking DARK AGES but we can't sort out now).<br />Anyone? Anyone?<br />No. Quarantine yourselves when it gets bad and wait for the vaccine (which means becoming an "insane prepper"), or be taken out. I'm done with idiots who can't comprehend math or the fact that something doesn't need to be airborne, it just needs to be infectious as all hell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-12105753196671656622014-10-25T10:31:00.592-07:002014-10-25T10:31:00.592-07:00Every case outside of the original area of Guinea,...Every case outside of the original area of Guinea,then the "original" areas of Liberia,Sierra Leone,and Guinea is one step closer to Ebola becoming a pandemic.<br />The mathematically challenged population of the good old USA is too busy watching election commercials,"reality TV",baseball and football to comprehend what exponential means in relation to the spread of Ebola.<br /> That and there are far too many who are members of the rainbows and unicorns club,the every white person is a racist,or white privilege is real clubs who believe it's just not right to isolate an entire city,or cities-or country-or countries.<br /><br />As you have stated-many times,this...<br />"Make appropriate personal preparations, while you yet have the time and wherewithal.<br />When things go to shit everywhere, as they continue to do like a Chinese water torture, drip by drop, that option will not exist for you, or for anyone else."<br /><br />Is the wise thing to do,the best and smartest plan for those who wish to survive the coming clusterfuck.<br />The old "beans ,bullets,and band aids saying applies here-along with water filtration/storage,lots of bleach/pool shock,and some PPE stuff.<br />Things will be a bit more difficult for those of us stuck in or near the big cities,not impossible to survive-just more difficult.<br /><br /><br />GamegetterIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963151027331481180noreply@blogger.com
