Because they can.
But not for long.
A link to this thread has been posted on the Ebola Surveillance Thread
They are obviously benevolent and want to spare us worry. They don’t want to create panic. They just love us all so much. /s
This guy is good, I hope we get a lot of such critics because we need to get serious about our preparations for bioterrorism.

Sounds like Obama pulled Dr. Tom Frieden aside and told him to spread the word that ebola isn’t a threat - and Frieden, following instructions, chatted away on the Sunday news shows .... this is absolutely disgusting! “No protocols were breached ... “
Bring Out Your Dead
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...
As others have said, shut down the travel from these nations. Just read last night a case in Sierra Leona close to Guinea caused them to shut the borders.
The problem with all this effort is it may catch some but others can get in by going through other airports. And at the airports being checked, Duncan would have likely gotten through if they are just screening on temperature because he probably wasn't sick yet and we know he lied.
Duncan's family haven't heard anything, you'd expect them to be more contaminated than that medical worker; however the virus probably keeps multiplying until your whole body is full of the stuff, think they call it "load".
He makes a lot of sense, which is why he’ll be ignored, even demonized.
Either you add me to your ping list or I rat you out to the mods.
Wait, whut? The Emerging diseases/Ebola ping list, that doesn’t require a threat to join, or the Nut-Job Conspiracy ping list that does???
Uh, yeah... It just seemed right. Anyway I’d like to be included on this list too... Thanks... :)
It makes no sense to say that a travel ban would prevent health care workers from leaving. Obviously they could be and should be granted exceptions. They shouldn’t be traveling by general aviation anyway.
He’ll be ignored.
They did the same thing with AIDS. Anyone that didn’t buy the political line, was trashed.
If this catches on, I’m wondering what percentage of the San Francisco homosexual community will have EBOLA within 36 months.
Done. To Both.
Could I interest you in a Red Dwarf ping list, a Constitutional Eligibility ping list, a 3-D printer ping list, a Jack Booted Thug ping list, a Harry Potter ping list, a Sharknado ping list or a homosexual minority humpback whale ping list?
Maybe his family all already had it and are immune ...
No one comes here who had been in the affected countries within the last 21 or 28 days. That takes care of connecting flights through Europe. I'm surprised Brussels hasn't closed itself off--most of the infected people have come through that airport.
