Lots of talking heads and “spokespersons” have been bloviating that there was “little chance” that the disease would travel beyond West Africa.

So far, that has been the case. To the best of my knowledge, confirmed cases have so far been restricted to Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea, and Nigeria.

Suspected, but unconfirmed cases have appeared in the US, UK, Morocco, the Philippines, and possibly Hong Kong.

Fecal matter is going to hit the rotary blades when we get the first non-African confirmation. And the “authorities” know that. That's why they will attempt to obfuscate for as long as possible - even if that means that it will give the disease a greater opportunity to spread.

No one will want to be the first. We'll see how long they can hold out.

The next two weeks will be interesting.

You are right, and this is entirely political for two reasons. First, it will show the utter foolishness of even “liberal-door” (let alone “open door”) immigration/Amnesty. Second, it will reinforce the notion of nationhood and that NATIONS, not little feel good groups and hashtags, must deal with these things.

The breaking news out of Nigeria this morning was unsettling. From the one airline passenger, eight contacts have come down with Ebola.

You’re being racist and very un-PC. We must have diversity in all things. Obola is seeing to that.

So Hussein flew in a boatload of em for a "summit".
