Pentagon: Troops Will Directly Contact Ebola Victims -Contrary to Obama Administration Claims

NEW YORK – Contrary to information disseminated by the Obama administration, U.S. troops in Liberia will have direct physical contact with Ebola victims, Gen. David M. Rodriguez, commander of U.S. African Command, disclosed at a Pentagon news conference Tuesday.

 

Rodriguez said teams of U.S. soldiers will work alongside Liberian troops and will staff mobile medical labs that will test people for Ebola.

 

The Daily Observer of Monrovia, Liberia, reported Tuesday that eight Liberian soldiers who contracted the Ebola virus have died.

 

“We placed two additional mobile medical labs in place in operation last week in Liberia, significantly increasing our capacity for rapidly diagnosing Ebola,” Rodriguez told reporters at the Pentagon.

 

The general said the mobile labs “are for testing people, and some of the people tested will have Ebola.”

 

“But the U.S. troops staffing these labs are trained at the highest level of nuclear, biological and chemical readiness, so they are all trained to operate in nuclear, biological threat, and chemical threat environments,” he said.

 

Rodriguez said a U.S. military medical mobile laboratory has been operating in Liberia for several years, but he gave no other details.

 

Rodriquez was asked to give an estimate of the number of U.S. troops that would work with the mobile medical labs in Liberia and to describe the type of protective equipment they would have.

 

“There is between a three- and a four-person team that operate each mobile medical laboratory, and we have three labs deployed right now,” he replied.

 

“We will probably deploy several other mobile medical laboratories. Each lab adds three-to-four additional U.S. troops involved, and, again, those troops are trained to the very highest level of operating in a nuclear, biological and chemical arena.”

 

Rodriguez said the soldiers “will be tested continuously for symptoms of Ebola.”

 

“These are the U.S. troops that will be involved testing directly people in Liberia suspected of having the disease,” he said.

 

He addressed the issue of what will happen if a member of the U.S. military in Liberia contracts Ebola.
