New Jersey officials order 'symptom-less' NBC News crew into Ebola quarantine 11 Oct 2014 New Jersey health officials have ordered into mandatory quarantine an NBC News crew that worked with an American cameraman [Ashoka Mukpo] who contracted Ebola in Liberia, though the group has no symptoms, its health department said on Saturday. The NBC News crew had agreed with New Jersey health officials to sequester themselves upon return the United States but then failed to do so, Donna Leusner, a spokeswoman for the New Jersey Department of Health, said in a statement. The mandatory quarantine was issued late on Friday and will ensure the group remains confined until Oct. 22, the end of a 21-day maximum incubation period for Ebola, Leusner said.


CDC could quarantine U.S. citizens for weeks if they refuse Ebola screenings --Non-citizens could be turned back 10 Oct 2014 U.S. citizens who refuse to undergo the new screenings for Ebola at five major American airports could find themselves held in quarantine for up to three weeks, officials told Yahoo News on Thursday. Non-citizens who refuse the screenings could be quarantined or turned away from U.S. soil by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) may "isolate, quarantine, or issue a conditional release order to any arriving person who is reasonably believed to be infected with or exposed to Ebola," CDC Public Affairs Director Barbara Reynolds told Yahoo News in an email.


Ebola prep in U.S. includes crisis actors testing hospitals, ambulances carrying plastic 7 Oct 2014 Public hospitals in New York City are so concerned about Ebola, they've secretly been sending [crisis] actors with mock symptoms into emergency rooms to test how well the triage staffs identify and isolate possible cases. A small Ohio hospital has hung up signs imploring patients to let nurses know immediately if they have traveled recently to West Africa. And across the U.S., one of the nation's largest ambulance companies has put together step-by-step instructions for wrapping the interior of a rig with plastic sheeting.


Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses as Biological Weapons - 2002 American Medical Association Consensus Statement 8 May 2002 Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses as Biological Weapons -- Medical and Public Health Management Objective --To develop consensus-based recommendations for measures to be taken by medical and public health professionals if hemorrhagic fever viruses (HFVs) are used as biological weapons against a civilian population. Participants -- The Working Group on Civilian Biodefense included 26 representatives from academic medical centers, public health, military services, governmental agencies, and other emergency management institutions... Conclusions -- Weapons disseminating a number of HFVs could cause an outbreak of an undifferentiated febrile illness 2 to 21 days later, associated with clinical manifestations that could include rash, hemorrhagic diathesis, and shock. The mode of transmission and clinical course would vary depending on the specific pathogen. Diagnosis may be delayed given clinicians' unfamiliarity with these diseases, heterogeneous clinical presentation within an infected cohort, and lack of widely available diagnostic tests.


Ebola screening starts at New York's JFK airport 11 Oct 2014 Medical teams at New York's JFK airport, armed with Ebola questionnaires and temperature guns, began screening travelers from three West African countries on Saturday as U.S. health authorities stepped up efforts to stop the spread of the virus. John F. Kennedy Airport is the first of five U.S. airports to start enhanced screening of U.S.-bound travelers from Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Nearly all passengers traveling to the United States from those countries arrive at JFK, Newark Liberty, Washington Dulles, Chicago O'Hare and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta. The new procedures will begin at the other four airports on Thursday.


Las Vegas sounds false alarm as global Ebola fears spread 10 Oct 2014 A commercial plane was briefly quarantined on a Las Vegas airport tarmac on Friday, sending airline shares down as worldwide fears increased that Ebola could spread outside West Africa, where it has killed more than 4,000 people. Airline and hospital officials said a Delta Air Lines plane was held at McCarran International Airport, but it turned out to be a false alarm and an all-clear was issued. A Delta spokesman said the concerns arose after a passenger on the flight from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport reported feeling unwell.


Ebola Patient Sent Home Despite Fever, Records Show 10 Oct 2014 The medical records of the Liberian man who died of the Ebola virus, released Friday by the man’s family, raised new questions about the treatment he received when he first sought care at a hospital here. The man, Thomas Eric Duncan, 42, had a high fever -- his temperature was 103 degrees -- during his four-hour visit to the emergency room of Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital on Sept. 25, according to 1,400 pages of medical records that Mr. Duncan's family provided to The Associated Press. His fever was marked with an exclamation point in the hospital's record-keeping system, The A.P. reported.


US Renews Global Terrorism Warning 10 Oct 2014 The State Department is renewing its global terrorism alert for Americans traveling abroad, saying it sees a heightened risk of reprisal attacks from the Islamic State group and its supporters.

Security services monitoring 'thousands' of terrorism suspects in London, says Boris Johnson --'The security services are involved in thousands of operations.' 10 Oct 2014 The security services are monitoring "thousands" of terrorist suspects in London, Boris Johnson has disclosed, suggesting the threat from 'Islamist extremists' may be far greater than has previously been admitted. Until now, it was thought that the main danger came from around 500 jihadis who have travelled to Syria and Iraq from the UK to join Isil or al-Qaeda [al-CIAduh] fighters, around half of whom have returned to Britain. But the Mayor of London suggested the threat from home-grown terrorist plots was far more widespread than the relatively small numbers of extremists who have gone abroad to fight.


Terrorism arrests: Fifth man held over 'plan to attack UK' 9 Oct 2014 A fifth man has been arrested in relation to a possible terrorism plot, Scotland Yard has said. Four men were held on Tuesday and government officials said the arrests "may have foiled the early stages" of plans for an attack in the UK. Police have now said a fifth man was also arrested on Tuesday, but his arrest was not made public for "operational reasons". "A number" of homes and vehicles had been searched by officers, police said.


$500M worth of US-bought planes destroyed by Afghans, sold as scrap for 6 cents a pound 10 Oct 2014 Sixteen military transport planes bought by the United States government for the Afghan Air Force (AAF) at a cost of nearly $500 million were recently destroyed by the Afghan military and sold for scrap parts at around six cents per pound, prompting a government inquiry to determine why millions of taxpayer dollars were wasted on the ill-fated program. The Department of Defense purchased for the AAF a total of 20 Italian-made G222 military transport planes at a cost of $486 million. However, the fleet was grounded in March 2013 "after sustained, serious performance, maintenance, and spare parts problems" were discovered, according to the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR).


Bombings kill 45 in Baghdad and outskirts - police, medical officials 11 Oct 2014 At least 45 people were killed in bombings in Baghdad and its rural outskirts on Saturday as the government continued to defend the capital against jihadists who four months ago seized major cities in northern Iraq. In west Baghdad, 34 people were killed by three car bombs in Shi'ite neighbourhoods on Saturday evening, police and medical officials said. A suicide bomber blew up his vehicle up at a traffic roundabout in Kadhimiya, killing 11 people, three of them police officers, officials said. Another 27 were wounded.


ISIS within 8 miles of Baghdad airport, armed with MANPADS 11 Oct 2014 Islamic State's offensive on the Iraqi capital intensified as the jihadist fighters advanced as far as Abu Ghraib, a suburb only 8 miles away from Baghdad's international airport. The outer suburb of Abu Ghraib is also the site of the infamous prison the US military used to humiliate and torture Iraqi detainees. There are reports by the Iraqi military that the militants are in possession of MANPAD anti-aircraft missiles.


Russia to urge world's parliaments to probe war crimes in Ukraine 9 Oct 2014 Russia's lower house of parliament, the State Duma, on Friday is due to consider a draft resolution calling on the parliaments around the world to investigate the crimes against civilians in south-eastern Ukraine. During the so-called Odessa massacre on May 2, at least 48 people died and more than 200 were injured in clashes in the city after radicals set ablaze the regional House of Trade Unions, where pro-federalization activists had taken refuge. Chairman of the State Duma Committee for CIS Affairs Leonid Slutsky said the State Duma is due to discuss the draft resolution at 11am Moscow time on Friday.


Malala Yousafzai, Distraction for US Drone Killings in Pakistan and Advocate of Privatized Education, Wins Nobel Peace Prize by Lori Price, www.legitgov.org 10 Oct 2014 CIA troll Malala Yousafzai wins the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize over Edward Snowden. Sorry, it's too much to BEAR. See 'Project Malala': The CIA's Socio-Psychological Intelligence Operation 15 Oct 2012 ...We have a New York Times reporter throwing the limelight on Malala just a month after her blog entries for the BBC --> the young girl becomes a celebrity overnight --> Pakistani media gets abuzz with the student --> NGOs, etc. come in --> too much exposure --> then there's a continued development, in between we have Generals Allen and Dempsey pressurizing General Kayani for an unwanted offensive in North Waziristan --> sudden new wave of terrorist attack "traced to TTP militants" and finally --> attack on Malala and class fellows, out of nowhere a minister traces the leads to North Waziristan, exactly where the Pentagon and Langley want Pakistani forces in...When the interviewer asked her about fear and danger, Malala, speaking in a clear, forceful voice, said that her father, who worked for women's education and fully supported his daughter, had inspired her, and that her mother had told her to speak up for her rights. And then, in a rather prophetic moment, she envisioned a confrontation with the Taliban. [Wow, then it actually happened! Holy mackerel!] See also: The Staged Malala Yousafzai Story: The Face of the 'Universal' For-Profit School Movement 14 Oct 2012; The Staged Malala Yousafzai Story: The Making of Malala – The CFR Mockingbird Reporter and the Charter School Owning Father 17 Oct 2012; and McKinsey & Co, Inc.: The Globalist Management Consulting Firm Behind the Malala For-Profit Charter School Psyop 13 Oct 2013.


After record-breaking corporate tax break, Boeing still ships jobs out of Washington 8 Oct 2014 Eleven months ago, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D-Dimwit) signed a package of tax breaks and incentives aimed at keeping tens of thousands of Boeing jobs in the Puget Sound region. Valued at $8.7 billion over 27 years, the set of bills amounted to the single largest tax break any state has ever given to a single company. Now, policymakers who feel they bent over backwards to accommodate the aerospace giant feel burned: In the past two weeks, Boeing announced it would move thousands of jobs out of Washington State...When Boeing's machinists' union was considering a contract the company said was necessary to keep the 777X jobs in the state, Inslee and Rep. Rick Larsen (D-Useless) urged union members to vote on the contract, without specifying how they should vote, at the request of Boeing executives; both statements angering their labor supporters.
