Blacks are the ones spreading ebola. Whites die because they tried to help. As usual, they have it half a backwards.

IIRC, they (The USA) still maintain the breed of monkeys that AIDS originated with for experimental purposes.

This is so racist on so many levels! What is wrong with Africa that they cannot cure itself, for instance? This accusation brings with it an implicit admission of inferiority.

It's not reasonable to expect that we spend all our resources casing down a cure for a rare African disease instead of what ails Americans. Get real.

I'm wondering if on some level there are those who think that Ebola spreading to the west might have a positive outcome of getting western medical skill involved in finding a cure.

Can't Africa solve any of its own problems? Throughout history. The only exception to that would be the northern tier, on the Meditteranean coastline.

The Zmapp given to Brantley took someone on the verge of death and restored him.

Doubtful. The virus grows in epithelial cells (blood vessels, liver and some other organs). People with full blown blood infections have recovered using no IV treatments at all.

Isn’t the belief that if ebola originated among white people an admission that among white people there are smart people who can invent things. Why don’t smart people among the black people of Africa invent things?

Actually, white people dropped like flies during the black plague. White people “became smart” after the industrial revolution; that is, because of capitalism.

They are charging that white Europeans are far more capable than black Africans, when it comes to solving problems?

Gosh, that sounds racist.

I thought all the significant scientific discoveries were made by black people, and the white people just stole their ideas and took the credit.

Polling blacks is a real PC taboo. You also will see polls where a majority of blacks hate Latinos and Asians, or believe in any number of bizarre conspiracies.

Just like there would already be a cure for cancer if it actually killed any white people.

Oh, wait . . .

They’re right, white folk would find a cure. The Africans need to get off their asses and do the same for THEIR people.

There would be an economic incentive and the brains to create an effective vaccine had it originated here; so what is stopping the Africans from developing a vaccine for themselves, instead of depending on the evil white man for solutions to their every problem, then bitching about it no matter how much help he gives them?

They are probably white. Those continents have the wealth, intelligence and education to have done something. They just don’t wait around for handouts.

Obama believes this too, which is why all of his polices have been to assure that our country has become infected.

Because they believe that only whites are capable of coming up with a cure?

Perhaps if African countries invested their money in healthcare, science and improving their infrastructures they wouldn’t be living in crapholes that are breeding grounds for diseases and war.

We can approach that proposition from a couple different directions.

Undoubtedly there are those whose resentment has made them stupid.

Then there's the reality that a for-profit company wants to be paid for its product.

People in America and Europe, as a rule, pay for what they get.

African medicine is charity.

2nd, why not award the ebola family a five dollar bill? The five dollar bill has a picture of Abraham Lincoln, as all know. Also award the ebola family a copy of the History of Abraham Lincoln via the court. Inform the ebola family the five dollar bill must be surrendered as a beginning of payment for Duncan’s care, and the full cost for Duncan’s care will be forthcoming to the ebola family including leans on all their property. The ebola family should be instructed by the court to keep and read the copy of the History of Abraham Lincoln. The court has ruled and everyone goes home. Everybody loses something in life is the general rule. In the end, everybody loses their life to something.
