Now we have to prove we’re not afraid? How about we prove we’re not stupid.

With these numbers we’d have to put in a hundred hospitals every month... Doubling every 6 weeks?

Is that what you think the mission is in Africa, build one bed for each patient while remaining passive otherwise and the medical community just waiting around to see how high the numbers go, or do you think they are there in an effort to end the outbreak, through a combination of actions?

ansel is on record as adamantly insisting that every American infected with Ebola should be flown back to CONUS for treatment.

Is there any reason to assume that Ebola will spread as easily in other environments as it does in western Africa?

I don't doubt that we'll have to be careful if Ebola emerges here, but I do doubt that the spread would be as extreme. That would be, in part, because a percentage of the population is ready to self-quarantine.
