It might end up doing some good. Instead of sending their kids to die in a government school, Americans will start homeschooling en masse, and kids will stop being indoctrinated and start learning. For progressives, that is a worse outcome than the disease.
I agree. They are criminally negligent. So is WHO. And Obama is criminally negligent and criminally incompetent.
Not to mention the virus that was brought here by the illegals crossing the border that is killing children. This is terrorism by germ warfare & yet no outrage!
You got that right!
The temperature scans are not totally useless. It is true, they won't catch all infected individuals, but they will catch contagious ones, thus saving fellow passengers.
If Duncan had been contagious when he boarded in Monrovia, I expect the mess would be bigger than it is by now.
All hypothetical questions. For individuals, becoming more isolated and avoiding disease is probably the best reaction at this point.
The MSM refuses to mention the illegals the few times they say anything about that virus and apparently most people aren’t making that connection. I think if they did, we’d hear more outrage.
So much good is better than no good.
You do what you can do. No need to compound the deliberate "error" of Comrade Obola.
...and the State Fair is going on. Terrible timing.
The immune systems of victims probably has a lot to do with who is most susceptible to the virus. Some have very weak immune systems and/or other health issues, others do not.
Just add 3 weeks to Thomas Duncan’s death.
At that point we will have a better understanding of how bad Ebola could be.
So now we are at #2.
Let's see Geraldo go to West Africa…
I would figure that by December of 2015....most American schools will go through the Ebola ‘scare’, and shut down operations for three months minimum. How they arrange for the kid to get credit, or just dismiss school for 2015/2016...will be a big question mark. A lot of folks will go ballistic because they think it puts their kid behind a year.
Added to this...how does a university function, if it shuts down for four or five months due to Ebola? An NCAA football schedule completely cancelled? An NFL season cancelled? A TV series suspended because two of it’s main actors are in some quarantine?
There are probably humans that are immune. Dogs, for instance, are known to be mostly immune, despite being susceptible to infection.
But the most likely hypothesis for humans is that the volume of the exposure matters. I.e., it's more dangerous to handle an almost-dead patient than to be in the same apartment with a new patient in the process of getting sick enough to be hospitalized.
In so many ways, no one person has done so much damage to the United States. I guess the entitlement junkies are getting what they wanted.
GoToMeeting. It's wildly under-utilized.
“If Duncan had been contagious when he boarded in Monrovia, I expect the mess would be bigger than it is by now. “
The real danger is has this already happened with someone else and we just don’t know yet.
