Translated Italian news regarding Ebola.

Hi Everyone,

Below is a news article from Italy about the suspected cases of Ebola. The first part is of interest as it gives an indication just how seriously the Italian authorities are taking the situation.

Original article here..

Translated article...>


It ' also taken in Italy alert for the virus " Ebola " . By a circular dated 4 April , the Ministry of Health announced the activation of surveillance and monitoring international points of entry in Italy. The note has been sent ENAC , the Foreign Ministry , in all regions and the Italian Red Cross. For the first time since 1970 , the note of alarm was also forwarded to the Ministry of Defence.

Procedures activated by the Ministry of Health provide controls on the inputs in the national territory and monitoring , entrusted to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Italians in the countries affected by the epidemic . The entire assets of the diagnostic capabilities of the country - it always reads the statement - is entrusted to the Institute Spallanzani of Rome " has the only laboratory in the highest level of biological containment ."

The fact that most worries scientists is the incubation period of the virus varies from 2 to 21 days for transmission in contact with blood and secretions , and reaches up to 49 days for contagion arising from the sperm .

The document produced by the Department for general prevention is no mention of the need to check the arrivals " direct and indirect ", a clear reference to the wave of migrants in these hours is doing route on Lampedusa. Just zip on the island with the migration, Italy is likely to be unprepared to deal with what the World Health Organization has called the most serious epidemic in recent years. In the last 72 hours, Lampedusa has recorded the largest wave of immigration since 2011 , when they reached the island of the Pelagie more than 50 thousand migrants. With the center closed for renovations , migrants intercepted by naval patrols of "Mare Nostrum" - the program of the Royal Navy to counter the landings - are transferred to the mainland or are waiting on the quay at the port of Lampedusa, in disastrous hygienic conditions .

Hundreds . " The migrants arrived in recent days - telling Espresso , Pietro Bartolo , health coordinator of the island - come largely from Libya and this should exclude the presence of Ebola virus carriers . But in any case it is better to stay with your eyes open because the situation is dramatic and you can not proceed to the identification of migrants coming . " In short, no certainty about who comes in and where to Lampedusa.

And ' at least ten years that intelligence agencies around the world had launched the risk of bioterrorism . This new wave of Ebola virus , which is characterized by the strain " Zaire ", the most viral , could also fall right into the category of bioterrorist attacks . The epicenter of the new infection is the Guinea where from 7 April were registered 151 cases with 95 deaths. Ebola is already walking in central Africa and hit in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Mali . According to the risk classification of the World Health Organization, the epidemic of 2014 is classified as a " serious public health impact ," as " rare, unusual or unexpected " and at risk , albeit low , of "going international ." The epidemic was not foreseen by the authorities of the global healthcare industry.

These parameters have mobilized intelligence agencies , including the Italian Aise , which mobilized a network of informants to understand whether the explosion of this new epidemic is a coincidence or was caused intentionally as an act of bioterrorism ? Hypothesis claw intelligence international community has formulated a number of years . Just remember as stated in 2002 , Luciana Borio , professor of the Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Strategies: '' An outbreak of Ebola would have a tremendous impact in our society, both for the high mortality for both the absolute lack of care. Sure and ' impossible to predict how likely these viruses could be used in biological attacks . But we know that is not 'quite impossible to turn them into weapons. For this we have an obligation to prepare ourselves . "


----> End of translated article.

The worrying thing about this article is that its dated April 4th, this was before the new Ebola strain was identified and before it was understood that a majority current field test kits for EBOV do not detect the new virus and produce a negative result.

In the end, the truth will become apparent in the next 7 days as incubation periods expire. In the next week I will be looking out for any reports of Italian diplomats suddenly having meetings with other leaders and also any news of sudden requisition of medical supplies and/or movements in the EU. Eyes on Italy and I really do hope for their sake its not Ebola and that they caught it all if it was.

A more recent news article, in Italian, Translated:

http://www.canicattiweb.com/2014/04/17/sicilia-allarme-ebola-paura-per-presunto-caso-a-lampedusa-ma-era-solo-uninfezione-intestinale/ - http://www.canicattiweb.com/2014/04/17/sicilia-allarme-ebola-paura-per-presunto-caso-a-lampedusa-ma-era-solo-uninfezione-intestinale/

Start:

Fear for the news that circulated on the net in the past few hours and that highlighted an alleged case of Ebola on the island of Lampedusa. The news had spread network arousing no little concern for the locals and for the entire nation, as it would be the first case of Ebola in Italy.

Fortunately, after thorough testing, the news was denied and belittled by ensuring that it was an intestinal infection caused by the consumption of spoiled food present in boats of illegal immigrants.

At the urging on the part of national security, bearing the news items have been removed and reported to the authorities not to create unnecessary and unjustified alarmism.

Currently the island of Lampedusa this is not no contagion . The police and the Ministry of Health are monitoring 24 hours 24.

The Ebola virus, even without treatment, however, creates considerable concern. Just yesterday they arrived at Porto Empedocles 108 illegal immigrants from African areas included in the red zone affected by the Ebola virus.

The migrants landed, the arrival on the Sicilian coast, were rescued by the Navy in continuous control on the Italian coast. The fear of finding Africans infected is very high, as it expects a wave of other six thousand migrants, due to this epidemic that is putting on her knees Africa.

Sicily may be unprepared to deal with what the World Health Organization has defined as the most serious epidemic in recent years. The epicenter of the new infection is the Guinea where from 7 April there have been over 100 deaths.

The Asp Agrigento, along with the Navy, stated that all immigrants are checked thoroughly on board the patrol.

Alright, so hopefully this is correct/true. Wanted to share!

Hi, and welcome to the forum Szolkir.

I think the point of my post was missed. I know the Italian health authorities have denied Ebola is in Italy, the point I am making is that in view of the fact it is a new strain that does not show up on current field test for EBOV, we simply cannot know if the Italy news is legit or suspect, the medical authorities cannot know either as they don't have a way to test for the new strain.

The only way we will know will be by watching events in the next week as that is when incubation periods for the virus will expire and those men will become very ill. Im hoping that no one else becomes ill.

What is making me so suspect of the current reporting is that the Italian health minister stated 10 days ago, that 'Italy does not have Ebola, but Sicily does'. When politicians do that kind of slight of hand, i.e nobody here but us chickens, look over there! It generally means they are absolutely lying and trying to hide/cover up something.

Hi Bob,

There have been reports over the years of Ebola arriving in the US in monkeys from the Philippines, notably the Ebola Reston strain that was discovered in the Reston primate holding facility in the US. As luck would have it though, that strain does not affect humans in a way that produces any symptoms, we are just carriers of it, not victims.

ITs also worth noting that the Reston strain was an airborne virus as demonstrated by the fact the spread of the disease in the Reston facility was proven to be via the air conditioning ventilation between two separate wings in the building.

Hi,

You have hit on the problem. The truth is we don't know if its in Italy, Sicily or even Spain now as some social media is starting to post. What gets me with this is that an Italian politician made the statements and all politician live by some clear rules,

1, Shut the hell up until whatever it is cannot be hidden any longer.
2, If you have to talk about it, lie and distract as much as possible.
3, In all cases, point the finger somewhere else for blame.

In Italy's case, this is exactly what they have done, they were forced to talk about the potential 40 cases due to a news release, and when the politician made the statements, he immediately denied it and pointed a finger somewhere else. These are classic actions of someone hiding something.

Hi Bob,

I follow a blog called Potrblog that details the surprising purchases made recently in the US. An example is a recent order placed for something called 'Thrombosomes', these are a blood supplement that makes blood clot. They are sold as 'the thing that will clot blood when nothing else will' If you examine potr's data, you will see the US has purchased tons of this stuff, all freeze dried and they have also purchased enough field hospital equipment in the last 6 months to put two major field hospitals into every state in the US.

I guess you can read this as a benevolent government just preparing in case, or you can look at it as a cash strapped and very in debt government preparing for something it knows is coming by making sure they spend what little they have on the right stuff.

either way, heres the link

I strongly suggest you look back through the previous posts on the site and the vids, they paint a very clear picture that the US government is very concerned about something.

I do think that there are parts that actually do their job...and, well one of them is to prepare for different eventualities.  Anyhow. I was reading some comments on Reddit, and someone whose parents live in Pisa said that they talked to them about this rumor, and it appears to be just that, though there is quite a bit of concern about illegal immigrants bringing contaminants with them. They also made a point to mention what I have mentioned before - that the trip there by boat is more than long enough to be past the longest incubation period....I believe. Also, none of the serious med mailing lists (such as Pro Med Mail) are carrying this. Er, I think that I mentioned above that I had contact with a Mod from there and that they checked their Italian sources and it appeared to be a rumor. Anyhow we will find out one way or another but I think that if it were true it would have hit the MSM already and as a poster on another website said, they would be in "full panic circus mode" by now. (I also know that you, Utwig, wrote a comment about false-negatives with the test kits for out in the field; but as I said before I think that  their scientists have to be aware of the new strain and the troubles in identifying it. In fact I think in a news article I read, some of the help with this outbreak was coming from some lab/institute in Italy.) Ah, anyhow...It's good to know there are so many eyes on this. Call me naive, but I do trust MSF/WHO/Etc on this. Oh and as for a depopulation program goes, I think it would be far easier to screw up the economy and have jacked up inflation (food prices go up) and have people starve. There is no guarantee that using a biological agent won't bite ya' in the rear.

How are you Szokir,

Utwig.[/QUOTE Hello Utwig, Yes my friend, I have been following the US prearations for a few years now, very telling to say the least.  They had just recently purchased upto 1,000 inflatable hospitals to put up where ever needed. I heard they were looking for a contract with dumpster companies.  Stratigic medicines are disapearing,can't forget about the millions of black plastic coffins placed throughout the US. DHS has over 2 billon rounds of ammo, 13,000 MRAP's,two days ago they placed another order of 25 million 12 guage shot gun shells. They have their underground bunkers to run too, and we have the fema camps to run too (not this kid).  Agenda 21 in full blown operation. Utwig, actually the sight you posted above potrblog mentions the 1,000 inflatable hospitals.  Just to let you know, take care.

Map on WHO(World Health Organization) website.   Yes, Ebola is in Italy in humans.  Yes, Ebola in the US in animals from Philippines reported. See map.

OH C**P!

God, I hope that means the previous WHO map was accumulated news and the apparently current info was not up to date.  Fingers crossed!
