UN officials admit that unless the international community can get Ebola under control by Christmas, the world will face an "unprecedented" situation for which there are no plans to deal with.
From Sky News:
"The WHO advises within 60 days we must ensure 70% of infected people are in a care facility and 70% of burials are done without causing further infection," said Anthony Banbury, the UN's deputy ebola coordinator.
"We need to do that within 60 days from 1 October. If we reach these targets then we can turn this epidemic around."
But Mr Banbury told the UN Security Council the 70% target was becoming harder to meet as new infections stack up.
He urged: "We either stop ebola now or we face an entirely unprecedented situation for which we do not have a plan."
The UN's Unmeer emergency mission is following a four-pronged plan to fight ebola.
Identify and trace contacts; manage cases; ensure safe burials and provide people with information to protect themselves.
"If we fail at any of these, we fail entirely," warned Mr Banbury.

Christmas? There is no Christmas anymore. Make it by Kwanzaa!
I got Ebola for Christmas
Reid and Pelosi are glad
I got Ebola for Christmas
One more dead teabagger ain’t bad
My fever hit a hundred five
Somebody puked on me
In two days I won’t be alive
Somebody puked on me
Liberians were on my flight
My underwear’s a dreadful fright
I won’t last the next fortnight
Somebody puked on me
Oh
I got Ebola for Christmas
This is goodbye, Mom and Dad
I got Ebola for Christmas
For Easter you’ll be getting Jihad
It’s always nice to know that when the SHTF, at least on FR we’ll go out with a laugh.
Obola’s response: Quick fly them all to the US. We are way too smart to get Obola here.

I never understand why we’re not allowed to say Christmas, because it allegedly offends those who don’t celebrate Christmas.
Why are we then allowed to say Kwanzaa, when not everybody celebrates Kwanzaa?
Wouldn’t the mention of Kwanzaa thus be offensive to those who don’t celebrate, just as the mention of Christmas offends those who don’t celebrate Christmas? What are the liberal criteria for this situation?
lol - even though the subject is not funny, your little song sure is!
Great job! It’s just too bad Tiny Tim isn’t around to put that to music:

Contained? Not with with it flying freely around the globe.
According to libtard logic, Christians, heterosexuals, males and whites are incapable of bonafide offense and outrage because they are the dominant culture.
There will come a point, if it hasn’t already, that the number of sick and infected will overwhelm the number of caregivers able to treat them.
When that happens, the only response will be to quarantine the area and let the infection run its course. That may mean letting thousands die to save millions. Unfortunately, hubris will keep people believing they can beat this virus, and we will end up with a pandemic that will make the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918 look like a seasonal cold outbreak.
We need to quit calling it the Ebola epidemic or the HN whatever the hell it is killing kids all over America, and start calling with EVERY thread, political speech and news article “The Democrats Biological Warfare on America”. Please help.
