Ebola virus has crossed into Nigeria, in fact Lagos.

Borders of Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea are already at risk of closing down.

Bit hard to say without being alarmist if infected persons would try to make it out by plane. They'd get sick quick at the airport most likely > organ failure.

The infected person would already be dead after such a long trip to Oz without treatment, but can you imagine a quarantined plane at a far corner of an airport?

Some passengers will probably disobey orders and set off exit chutes after seeing blood coming out of an Ebola infected person's ears/nose/bowels/mouth!!!

Seen this terry, also thought that Ebola has an incubation period of three or so days before the symptoms occur?

Thanks Grimesy.

Looks like this is one disaster area that Presidents and PMs don't visit.

I wonder how many plagues or serious diseases have emanated from rodents (albeit that bats are flying rodents) > black plague, hendra, ebola....???

I hope the irony in my post was better received than Ebola itself...

Ebola is habitually and demographically selective...there's no way the wealthy and white will catch it...

Maybe some fake westerner cases tipped off to the western media would light a fire under the bums of our healthcare watchdogs...

But I digress; prevention doesn't pay the pharmacists :P

The common denominator is that Ebola can't become a pandemic unless it mutates into an airborne strain.

It does need to be contained though lest it merges with say a H1N1 flu virus.

I personally don't want to contemplate that one ay?

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
