Friends
I have just got a communication from white house about fifteen minutes ago, stating exactly what president Obama stated in a statement to African countries regarding Ebola and how it is transmitted. It is in an effort from White House and CDC, to educate the public on how Ebola is transmitted, they are still pushing the line of you cannot get Ebola without direct fluid contact with the patient. The statement that has just been released is here-by below. Make sure you have the clear-cut facts on Ebola. <http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/email-files/template/wh_stars.png> The White House <http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/email-files/template/wh_stars.png> Ebola: What you need to know At a time when Ebola is all over the news and it's easy for misinformation to get interpreted as truth, make sure you have the clear-cut facts. <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=794ed5cb7de8088443e751dba0fa237f66bc647ebc584d5c6e13c566c87bc298310db6442d43191f> Here's what our public health officials are saying about the Ebola virus -- get informed, and share this information where everyone can see it. 1. You CAN'T get Ebola through: * Casual contact with someone who has no symptoms of the disease * Air * Water * Food in the U.S. <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=794ed5cb7de808840264001d57d34b2ad24c3fa9aa9c42c00139a3d3df52ece361905c0d179587cb> 2. The only way a person can get Ebola is through direct contact with the bodily fluids of someone who is already showing symptoms of the disease. <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=794ed5cb7de808846334e941f3bbd9e936bd399694a5921e5e1c9c955b817b41c937e8697408fe92> 3. If a person does not have symptoms, they are not contagious. <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=794ed5cb7de8088422c6bf5258501def44a5015cd529835899cce524e857337a9ba4fc181ca4e7f2> As President Obama, leadership at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and other senior officials have reiterated, the chances of a widespread Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. Still, you don’t want to be misinformed about Ebola. <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=794ed5cb7de80884f8b916429af5905b0f2dcedc09cefbf8d894b96fa8cf5f94a7bba422d26afa91> Find out more about how we're responding to the disease, and the domestic and international efforts to contain and end the epidemic. You can <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=794ed5cb7de80884beb9f343bac6a7d65220cf5bf02dc7f06c0f36ec4e623d6aa1b53b06a88ebda4> visit the CDC for more information on our response to Ebola and call 1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636) for additional inquiries. <http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/open.aspx?ffcb10-ff2a1576736c-fe89157172630c7470-fe8d1272776d077b73-ff991575-febc1079766d007b-ff5e16767c> Now on reading this statement that has just been released by Washington, be informed that South Western College in Chula Vista, California, has decided today to evacuate building 470 because one of the students in that building has started to show signs of Ebola including vomiting. The unidentified student was a passenger on flight 1143 where a second nurse from Dallas travelled out of Cleveland to Dallas. CDC is on the way to the college campus. And I am leaving it exactly at that.
