You have 2 decisions

-Read and post wisely

-Don't read and post tl;dr, or get out

Foreword.

This forum has been talking non stop about Ebola. I am here to expose the lie behind it.

Go ahead and believe what you want. Go ahead and call me a "conspiracy theorist", but sometimes there are dots that we aren't supposed to connect. I may not be 100% right, but, from reading most mainstream media news articles, both right and left wing, I can conclude that they are not telling the whole truth.

The message.

I would like to begin with the story of the Ebola "patient" that arrived from African countries with a prominency of the disease.

Nancy Writebol- She is the mainstream media's main focus. She was a humanitarian aid in Liberia, helping their community access water, food, and whatnot. The story behind her is that she caught Ebola, and was then sent back to the U.S. for her condition. She was quarantined the whole time, with maximum security, safety,

Los Angeles Times reports her story as "Real reason to be hopeful". What they report is that she is recovering. Here is the problem. She was only having "fever and gastrointestinal problems more commonly found in malaria". This means that they don't even know if she has Ebola. During her stay in Liberia, the team took extraordinary measures to stay clean and sanitized, the missionaries were well aware of the Ebola case, and put in their full effort to stop it.

The media may not be technically lying about these cases, but what they are doing is saying "Everything is alright. Look, she caught it and didn't die! Its never going to spread. Don't worry".

Now, you may have heard the story of Kent Bradley, who was given Zmapp, an experimental drug that a company called "Mapp Biopharaceutical Inc". There is some actual hope here, but what I am pointing out is that these people had this life saving medicine the whole time, yet they only used it when the media had its glimmering lights on the situation.

Now when the Ebola outbreak was first discovered, the media stirred panic all over America. The CDC was saying "This may be the largest epidemic we've ever faced!" "We don't know how we're going to control this!" Now these people come up with this magic cure when an American missionary is under the media spotlight.

What I can conclude is that the media is trying to manipulate us, but I don't know for what purpose. They will say "Oh no! Thousands of Africans die! We can't contain this! Everyone panic!" then they say "Oh wait, we got a cure. We're all safe. Nothing to worry about".

They just look suspicious, cheeky, hesitant, and crafty. I'm not sure what they're up to, but its something big, and something they're trying to hide from us.

Then again, OT is a chaotic mental playground for inconsiderate people who want to please themselves. Most of the posts will be silly and unthoughtful. Why the heck did I post it here anyways?

I would certainly hope your solution to this problem is not more bureaucracy.

also zmapp was an EXTREMELY experimental drug and only given to the patient as a last resort of sorts given the mortality rate of ebola it WASNT a fully finalized and tested drug that was only used because the media asked for it
