We need to stop any flights or boats coming from the infected area and here we nee immediate quarantine. This could kill our sweat children.

Yes it is. Seven days ago, Aug 28, case count was 3,069, with 1,552 deaths. In a few weeks it will hit over 1000 cases per day at this rate.

Its still summer by some definitions, and if you are doing things right they should be “sweat children”.

Best hope now is that it burns out where it is.
Thats still going to kill a large proportion of at least two countries, as its gotten into very dense population areas.
This will be complicated by famine as the local economy will collapse.
Unfortunately at some point the survivors are probably going to flee, and there is no way to stop them.

A ping for our sweat children!
Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
Bring Out Your Dead
Were gonna need
a bigger cart!
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Ban all flights from west africa, no more ships from the infected zone until it burns itself out.
To: Forward the Light Brigade
People at the CDC are ‘citizens of the world’... protecting Americans is beneath their exalted sense of great dignity and superiority.
If ebola comes here - and kills more than a thousand Americans - we need to de-fund the CDC.... and throw the ‘oh so superior ones’ in jail.
Or let ‘the world’ pay their damn salaries.
