You’re not alone. While I believe the threat is fabricated, the reckless abandon of our government puts us at risk in different ways.
The virus is bound to mutate, but it cannot mutate in the human hosts. It will mutate in Africa. We should be able to control this rather simple problem.
I had a conversation with a normally-intelligent guy this afternoon. We discussed the Ebola-thing for a bit. He compared restricting travel from Africa to the 9/11 ground-stop. I said “That’s funny, ‘cause the Nigerians seem to have figured it out.”
Apparently liberal propaganda hasn’t yet revealed that Nigeria doesn’t have an Ebola problem.
We also discussed the BS crap from the nurses union about hospitals being ‘unprepared’. I alluded to prior experiences of SARS and H1N1 and questioned the state of US medicine if hospitals can’t deal with a non-airborne infectious threat. He responded that “they aren’t ready; they only have Level 2 protection”.
Pathetic. I don’t believe for a second that hospitals can’t deal with Ebola patients right now. It’s lack of protocols and adherence to procedures that’s putting people at risk. Ironically, just like what happened at the CDC labs...
It’s the scare-tactics of this ‘manufactured crisis’ that’s going to do the most damage...
