"The rest of us are scheduled to die of Ebola by next June, anyway. :)"

My son (PhD physics) is presently vacationing in Copenhagen, I sent him the below article about ebola and below that is his response.

"The day of reckoning may be near. Why do you think we (US) are sending command and control? What the article does not expound on is that if we get to those much larger numbers the current response is not scalable. At some point, probably now already we need to focus on enforcing quarantine between populations that are capable of managing incursions and those that are not, ala epidemic scenario. And with half survive with immunity, we need prepare for those infected populations once stabilized because those left alive are immune, now possess a potential WMD."
