...”If Ebola was coming to the United States to vote Republican, the government would find a cure.”...
Probably so..However, incurable and deadly diseases have changed the course of history in the past simply through infecting the left and the right equally. I suppose the well connected will get the best care when they fall ill, but that will not insure survival. The powers that be need to forget political correctness and get to work on this in every way they can.
The solution is quarantine, and quarantine amounts to a military solution.
You have a point there.
I didnt know about the dogs
Dogs are hunted down and killed in Arabia so maybe no big deal there
Everything you say about the taxi system and all public places (and the filthy money money that changes hands multiple times in a day - our own US dollars are contaminated with e coli)
I’m going to bet the “executive assistants” and other govt mucka muckas have cooks and housecleaners who don’t
have a flush potties at their homes or in their villages where they go every week to visit family and take stuff
and for the men, the prostitute business is as casual there as us going for a haircut- esp for the truckers who haul everything across the continent
given the lifestyle over there I truly do not see how it will be contained unless Black Death measures are adopted (total seal off until everyone dies or says alive because of immunity)
and Obama is pompously sending US troops over there to .... do this job? Quarantine Africans to their deaths?
True about the household help. Although many mansions over there have special quarters for the household help and their immediate families. Our apartment building had a special mini apartment over the garage for each apartment’s ‘butler’ to live in with his family. They too had flush potties and running water and electricity though. And this was 40+ years ago.
Prostitution is ‘casual’ in most of the world. Including most of the US, if you pay off the right people.
All good sounding precautions.
HOWEVER, I might remind you that when you FART, you expel FINE PARTICLES OF FECES into the air around you. If this were not true, then you could not SMELL A FART.
BUT YOU CAN, and every time you smell someone else's FART, you have inhaled particles of FECES.
OR perspiration, or flatulence.
AND, isn't that what it is doing right now ? According to the article it is mutating at an unprecedented rate.
(and this map is 11 years old)
Note how many of those cities have public transportation systems. And hospital systems that would very easily become overloaded if just 3 or 4 people per day, for a couple of weeks, turned up in the ER with ebola.
Old expression: “somebody left the door open and in-flew-enza!”
well thanks for sharing. lol
Ditto puke. If you can smell the puke of someone who has ebola, technically you’ve potentially inhaled ebola virons.

The CDC and the WHO for that matter are waling a fine line with a lot of very irresponsible politicians.
They under no circumstances can tell them an unpalatable truth that will get them cut off from access to power because of the stakes.
An inadequate half a loaf policy that saves a few now and might let reality teach the politicos is better than being cut off by telling a truth that will result in hard reality denial until well after it is too late, with a blame the messenger
I guess it is safe to assume same would apply to body odor? bad breath?
Yup.
If you technically shouldn’t eat or drink it, you shouldn’t breathe it either. Unless you plan on never swallowing again.
That’s it. I’m committing suicide, rather than risk getting Ebola.
If we did just kill ourselves now, that might go a long way towards slowly the spread.
And this virus was truly airborne. It moved easily from room to room throughout the monkey house through the ventilation system.
