[HOAX] Purdon, TX family of 5 tested positive for Ebola [HOAX]

NationalReport.net is notorious for creating fake news stories.


Ummm.... Crap
Family of 5 test positive Purdon, TX

The small town of Purdon, Texas has been quarantined after a family of five tested positive for the Ebola virus.

As some cooler heads pointed out this was a satire news site. Very funny. Ha. Not.

Sorry

Out of control. I wonder who they've had contact with? S + F

Was there no other information???

Are they from West Africa? Did they just get back from a trip? Do they know anyone from West Africa???

Good grief, it can't just pop up in the middle of nowhere...Purdon is a tiny little town northeast of Waco.

What the freakin' heck????

The million dollar question....also as we approach the 21 day mark how many more will there be?

What?!! Is this real? If he traveled to Dallas and wasn't aware of coming in contact with either Duncan or Nina Pham then how the heck did he get it?!

And they're quarantining the town by setting up road blocks? Surely this is a joke, right?

SO he was nowhere near Africa and now he and his family have Ebola....If true this thing must be airborn.

Another report on the same site says "Feds issue Travel Advisory" for Texas.
This is looking suspiciously like a joke site. Anything known?

They issued a travel advisory for TX

Please someone tell me this is an unreputable news source

Federal Travel Advisory for Texas

I hope it's a joke...although suddenly I haven't the least desire to laugh.

In fact, nausea is uppermost.

Yeah I just saw that too. My family lawyer just put this report on his FB. I have heard nothing else. He's got a sense of humor but I don't think he would knowingly joke here

I don't see this reported anywhere else, and according to that article the town was quarantined as of last night (10/13). Wouldn't some other source have picked up that story by now? Either someone is attempting to suppress this news, or this isn't legit.

Edit: After looking over this site, there is no way this is true. The site is full of junk/fake news.

Is this showing up anywhere else in the news? I'm new to the site and was checking threads today for updates when I came across this thread.

The dad was probably in the restaurant where the news crew who were supposed to be quarantined picked up takeout.
This is not cool.

I really really hope this not legit

The CDC wasted no time sealing up the rest of the town’s denizens, and has stopped all traffic entering and exiting Purdon, TX. As of 10 Pm, Oct. 13th area has been surrounded with police and CDC officials. Communications with the locals seems to have been cut off, and press is currently awaiting an official statement from local authorities. - See more at: http://_national_report_dot_net_/texas-town-quarantined-family-five-test-positive-ebola-virus/#sthash.EFjlBSz8.n3E0bYMg.dpuf

Go to the "World" section of that site.
Is it true that Kim is "forcibly shortening North Korean penises" if they are longer than his own?

to my understanding, National Report is not really a strict news reporing source, but more perhaps towards likes of Onion, a more satirical kind of fantasy news.

Before It's News is asking anyone who knows about this to come forward and verify. They are also sending a team down there.

If this is a joke it's certainly not funny!

Holy *#+! I am not amused.

Mods please delete or hoax this.

Very sorry. I should have checked this out. I learned my lesson. So sorry

Here we go!!

Please remember they are totally lying about EVERYTHING!!! (SO CALLED CDC ETC)

I hope that people will start getting prepared
This is not regular "Ebola" I believe its a mutated form....not good at all

I pray for this country
We need to wake up
Everyone is ASLEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
