With contacts in high places, it stands to reason that the man behind the largest news source on the planet might get a heads up about key developments every so often.

Yesterday, after having completely wiped his social media Twitter account clean recently, Matt Drudge posted his first message in months.

Its a simple message and very much to the point, but for those following the news of failing Ebola containment protocols its terrifying.

Maybe Matt Drudge has gotten word of something that were not yet aware of just yet.

Or, perhaps, like any concerned citizen watching the Centers for Disease control botch the handling of Ebola, he sees the writing on the wall. The virus, as has been the case in Africa, will continue to spread.

Given what we know of the last 48 hours, the virus made its way from Dallas to Ohio and back when the second person to contract Ebola in America, Amber Vinson,boarded a commercial passenger plane while symptomatic. She was approved to fly after contacting the CDC and telling them she had a low-grade fever and had been a nurse treating Patient Zero Thomas Duncan.

Theres no telling how many people Vinson or Nina Pham (Patient #2) came into contact with while they were infected or where those people are now.

Given these latest developments, Matt Drudge may be right on target with his recommendation to self-quarantine.

But is it time to do that now?

Tess Pennington, author of The Preppers Blueprint, addresses this in her latest guide: When Should I Go Into a Full Pandemic Lockdown Mode And Self Quarantine?

Before you dismiss this as just another over-sensationalized attempt at fear mongering, understand this: Ebola has a 70% mortality rate and there is no cure.

Lets be absolutely clear this is not a common cold or flu. If you get Ebola, odds are you will die.

Pennington outlines several events and warning signs that should trigger your personal lockdown plan. She also goes on to provide details on what youll need to survive an extended quarantine in your own home.

For people who have never considered the possibility of a pandemic or large-scale emergency, it sounds simple enough. Lock the doors. No one goes in, no one goes out.

But unless youve planned for a pandemic in advance you can expect to run out of essential supplies like food pretty quickly. Moreover, have you considered what youll do if utility workers stop showing up for work and the power or water treatment plants stop functioning? What about sanitation where will you put all that waste, especially if the sewage system goes down along with other utilities?

For those with country retreats or survival bug outs and the means to go off-grid, the solution is easy. For those living in cities, working full-time jobs, and kids at school it becomes a daunting task.

Nonetheless, Drudge is right. What happens if this virus continues to spiral out of control and the medical system can no longer handle it? Despite our purportedly advanced health care infrastructure, what if we go the way of West Africa? What if the CDC cant stop it?

Then, self quarantine becomes the only viable means of prevention.

You absolutely cannot depend on the government to protect you this time. If Ebola spreads, your ability to prevent infection and survive will come down to one factor: YOU.

Are you ready for this possibility?

OH Matt Drudge! :lmao: He is just trying to "scare up" an audiance.

What does it take for folks to see clearly that the ONLY thing the gubbermint protects is its own interests, period.

This seems to sum things up very, very well - so well in fact that it must be found in the wayback machine now:
