they have been working on the website today everytime i go there today there is another change nothing major but hell its a change.
Shows nothing ?
how so ?
you said show proof which i did including the 38k i grabbed this morning
as far as my broker what difference does that make
and yes they are for sale at 0.02 to keep shorts hands off them.
when i hit at 35 it went to 36 and i bumped up then it went to 37 i followed all the way to 39 and picked up 38k more shares now we wait lol
vol is starting to pick up a little
someone tell me how to post a pic
just got the other 38k
i bought 2.57 mil last week and have not sold a penny i have a bid in for another 38k right now
My contribution to the scare
http://www.wnd.com/2014/10/document-shows-feds-fear-airborne-ebola/
wish there was something we could do about it
dear god bounce
I've got a back of 2.57 mil hoping for good things
100% buy 64% over all hell its a better rating then other pennys i can find.
and we have a real product not a idea.
lets see this run.

very nice
ok thank you for the info and i have done such
New trader looking for a little bit help. I see a lot of you talking about locking down your shares please forgive my questions but by locking into you mean Setting a sell price say around $.75 to a dollar ?
if this is the case Will it help forward movement if I were to set a sell price for my shares. I have 2.57 million and if it will help I will lock in those
0.0104 and climbing love it
listen bud we can keep this up forever and in the end you will look foolish this is what i do i am a medical professional.
no thermometer can be used as with any medical implement without full fda review and approval
now for your home work.
Non-Contact Temperature Measurement Devices: Considerations for Use in Port of Entry Screening Activities
Who this is for: This document is intended for public health officials and airport authorities for use in screening prior to boarding aircraft from countries with active outbreaks.
What this is for: This document provides information and consideration of non-contact thermometers for use in port of entry screening. A non-contact thermometer is a way to take someone’s temperature without touching them.
? A non-contact thermometer is a way to take someone’s temperature without touching them. Non- contact infrared thermometers (NCIT) 1 are as accurate as contact thermometers and are low cost. Training is easier and the thermometers are easier to use and do not need as much work to set them correctly.
? Thermal scanner cameras2 can measure temperature from a greater distance although they have not been evaluated for use as a primary diagnostic tool or for screening multiple individuals in an uncontrolled environment, such as an airport. They are not as accurate as NCIT’s and may be more difficult to use effectively.
Background:
This document provides information and consideration of non-contact thermometers for use in port of entry screening. A non-contact thermometer is a way to take someone’s temperature without touching them.
Temperature measurement is just one tool used to find out if a traveler might have Ebola. Other tools, such as looking carefully at the traveler, health questionnaires, and interviews can give a fuller picture of the risk so that authorities can do more effective screening and take appropriate public health action.
Fever
? The average normal body temperature is 98.6°F (37°C).
? Fever is a measured body temperature above normal.
? Fever is often a sign that the body is fighting a disease that could be infectious.
? For different infectious diseases, fever is considered to be significant if the temperature is above a specific
measurement.
o For Ebola, a fever of 101.5°F (38.6°C) or higher is considered significant.
? Other causes of fever include other medical conditions, severe trauma or injury, and some medicines.
? Infected persons will likely not have a fever during the incubation period for Ebola (2 to 21 days).
1 Non-contact infrared thermometers cleared by FDA under Product Code “FLL”
2 System, Telethermographic (Adjunctive Use) cleared by FDA under Product Code “LHQ
How to use: Use this document to learn about different non-contact temperature measurement devices.
Key Points
?22Aug2014
? An ill person’s temperature could be normal after taking fever-reducing medicine.
Types of Temperature Measuring Devices
? Usually, temperature is measured using contact thermometers on many places on the body; commonly the mouth, ear, forehead, armpit, and rectum.
o Some devices such as non-contact thermometers also measure temperature on the forehead.
? A rectal thermometer is the most accurate way to measure body temperature, especially in small children.
Non-contact infrared thermometers (NCITs)
? Depending on the manufacturer, NCITs are held between 1.2 and 6 inches (3-15 cm) from the body.
? Most NCITs measure temperature by placing a probe over the middle of an individual’s forehead.
o Temperature over other body surfaces may also be measured depending on the manufacturer’s specifications, including the neck, navel, and armpit.
? Since NCITs do not touch any body surfaces, the risk of cross-infection is low and probe covers do not need to be disinfected or thrown away, unless they come in contact with the skin.
? Some NCITs are FDA-cleared or CE-Marked for use as thermometers and will not need to have temperature confirmed.
o Another measurement can be taken if needed during secondary screening evaluation.
? Operational advantages: non-contact, accurate, lower cost, smaller size, easier training and use, and less
need for re-setting to correct readings. Because some models are FDA-cleared or CE-Marked for use in
medical facilities, they can be repurposed if no longer needed at airports.
? Operational disadvantages: slower for screening large numbers of people, meaning that more units and
personnel are needed to operate them compared to mounted, camera-style scanners.
? Optimal conditions for use vary by manufacturer but include measuring:
o Over dry body surfaces; over non-hairy body surfaces; in a draft-free room; at a constant temperature between 60.8°F (16°C) and 104°F (40°C); and at humidity below 85%.
? Ability of NCITs to detect fever
o Product-to-product comparisons are difficult because: different targets are used, there are few
direct studies which compare specific devices, and new devices are developed.
o From a few review studies (2005 – 2011), overall performance characteristics reported were
? Sensitivity: 80% - 99%
? Specificity: 75% - 99%
? Positive predictive value: 31% - 98%
o The optimal cut-off point for predicting fever is different for each device and may be different from how fever is defined for a specific disease.
? So for any device used for fever-screening, the choice of the cutoff value can result in false- positive and false-negative results.
o Some reports suggest that taking the average of several readings improves accuracy. Thermal Scanner Camera Devices
22Aug2014
o These devices are FDA cleared specifically for adjunctive use only – meaning they are only cleared to be used in addition to another clinical diagnostic procedure. These devices are not cleared as a sole primary screening/diagnostic tool. No thermal scanner cameras are cleared or approved specifically for mass screening of fever or specific diseases.3
o Temperature readings from thermal camera scanners should only be interpreted along with an FDA-cleared (or CE-Marked i.e. EU approved) thermometer.4
? Operational advantages: non-contact and relatively accurate.
o Thermal scanner cameras can measure temperature from a greater distance than other non-
contact temperature devices. However, Ebola is not spread through the air, so there is no real
safety advantage from the greater separation distance.
o Mounted camera models can screen large numbers of people, meaning that fewer devices and
screening personnel are needed.
? Operational disadvantages: much higher cost, more difficult to use, more extensive training requirements,
more frequent re-setting and calibration to correct readings for variations in ambient environmental conditions, less precise, maintenance needs, and a FDA-cleared temperature-measuring device must be used to confirm temperature.
Device Approval
? Different countries may have different medical device approval process and criteria.
? In the United States, medical devices are cleared or are exempted from review by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
o FDA does not develop or test products. FDA experts review the results of laboratory, animal, and
human clinical testing done by manufacturers.
o If FDA grants a 510(k) clearance, for a thermometer, it means the agency has reviewed that the
product is as safe and effective as other currently marketed thermometer products. ? In the European Union, the approval process is called CE Marking.
o Valid CE Marking on a product indicates it complies with European product safety standards. ? FDA-cleared devices for measuring temperature are categorized into the following types:
o Clinical color change thermometer (21 CFR 880.2900)
? A disposable device used to measure a patient’s oral, rectal, or armpit body temperature
using heat-sensitive chemicals sealed at the end of a plastic or metal strip. These chemicals
change colors depending on the temperature.
o Clinical electronic thermometer (such as non-contact infrared thermometer) (21 CFR 880.2910)
? An electronic device used to measure body temperature that has a display unit.
3 For some FDA-cleared manufacturers’ devices, the 510(k) summaries indicate the devices can be used in both healthcare and public environments, such as airports; however, the performance of the device may vary depending on the ambient environmental, and any estimated temperature needs to be confirmed with an FDA-cleared thermometer.
4 At optimal cutoff values for detecting fever, temperature estimates by some thermal scanners have been found to be relatively accurate; however, they can yield false positive (i.e. incorrectly high temperature readings) and false-negative results (i.e. incorrectly low temperature readings) and are less precise than NCITs.
?22Aug2014
o Clinical mercury thermometer (21 CFR 880.2920)
? A device that measures oral, rectal, or armpit body temperature using mercury, which
expands and contracts depending on temperature. o Liquid crystal forehead temperature strip (21 CFR 880.2200)
? A device applied to the forehead that monitors body temperature by displaying the color changes of heat-sensitive liquid crystals that are sealed in plastic.
o Telethermographic system (“thermal scanners”) (21 CFR 884.2980)
? A device intended for measuring changes in body temperature as an adjunctive tool to
another diagnostic test. This electronic device does not require physical contact to measure
infrared radiation that goes along with body temperature variations.

well put thank you.
No with out a fda cert for medical use they are nothing more then a household thermometer. Do your research first. This is coming from someone in the medical field who uses this equipment on a daily basis. Myself. Not some rumor.
That is a standard inferred thermometer not fda approved for medical use and is only accurate +- 3 to 5 degs not down to the 10th of a degree as needed for medical use.
Huge Volume 23mil and counting i picked up 2.57 mil this morning figured id try this out for a run hoping for a long climb
Loving this stock. Got another 100k this morning.
Very impressed with this so far picking up another 100k at open to total a mil hope the run keeps up.
no I'm in for awhile i had a queued alert and sale for 35 set from when first got in until i spoke with you and got the info.
i have no sells set at this point
i understand and I'm here for the long haul just hoping it is a good choice
i lot 15k yesterday on a "good choice" and can't lose anymore I'm a disabled vet trying to pay my bills with very little to spare and no way to work....
yep and watching it fall i have no idea what I'm doing
i grabbed 848000 at 0.032
dtc chill block ?? i can't buy in
