Step one for you is to try and convince people that the military doesn't deal in global threats of a biological nature, or in infectious disease.
“Step one for you is to try and convince people that the military doesn’t deal in global threats of a biological nature, or in infectious disease.”
I didn’t say that. Step one for you is to tell the truth and argue the argument that is being argued, not what you wish was being argued.
We have no business whatsoever in West Africa right now - if we are not going to do the very things that will stop the spread of the epidemic. It’s not hospitals, it’s preventing it’s travel between population centers.
Failing to do that, all the org charts in the world will do nothing to halt it’s spread. All the hospital beds and training will do nothing. Exponential growth overwhelms incremental measures.
If this were the US, the Army would contain the outbreak and prevent movement out of quarantined areas.
Are they doing that in Africa? Why not, do you think?
You know the answer, if you’ll think about it.
