Missouri Doctor:

"It's Just A Matter Of Time Before [Ebola]
Is Carried To Every Corner Of The World"


October 3, 2014

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) Dom Giordano talked with Dr. Gil Mobley, who believes the CDC is lying about the threat posed by Ebola and staged a protest at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport to expose it.

Mobley, a doctor in Missouri, is convinced that Ebola will soon be infecting people all over the globe.
"For months, doctors in my community, since we had a meeting six weeks ago, have been convinced that the United States will be importing clusters regularly. Right now, on the continent of West Africa, there are a million people in isolation, in quarantine, because of Ebola, and ten thousand passengers leave West Africa every single day. It?s just a matter of time before this disease is carried to every corner of the world."

He insists the CDC is underplaying the threat posed by the disease and is intentionally misleading the public.

"They said the chance of importing a cluster, just two weeks ago, was extremely small, yet we knew that it was a sure thing. And the very same day that the President echoed [Director Tom] Frieden's sentiment at the CDC that it?s very small, that very same day, they made the misdiagnoses in Dallas and sent this infectious guy home to infect these other people."

Mobley said it is inevitable that an Ebola crisis will break out in the United States.

"That disease is going to consume every third world country on the planet, and then we will be importing these clusters on a regular basis. I have no question that we will be able to stomp out this cluster in Dallas, but what happens when it happens on a weekly basis? Already the Dallas Health Department is overwhelmed; they're flying people to Atlanta. I don't care how advanced any industrialized nation is, there is a threshold where we will outstretch the resources and it becomes uncontrolled."

     The president has done a good thing by sending a large and competent team to the source of contagion.

       This seems like the right thing to me , and I hope it is enough , the Nature of Ebola makes it possible to choke it off with quarantine and improve survival rates with just competent nursing.

The goal should be to make a maximum effort to stamp out ebola completely, everywhere in as short a time as possible.

Why should anyone consider the doctor in Missouri to be an expert on epidemiology?
