What is far more troubling, though, is that whole facilities will be closing their doors whenever someone sneezes within a mile. With ambulance chasing lawyers always at the ready, nothing else can be really expected. The US economy (or whatever remains of it) will be further impacted by such fear. Take that teacher, for example... would you put the lives of hundreds of students at risk, even if per entirely trustworthy assurances of the CDC the probability of infection is 0.01% ?
Do you have a source for that outside of the CDC?
a difference in professions....registered nurses go into battle to fight disease and they get blamed to breaking some unknown “protocol”....and teachers get to stay home and get paid for being on a plane that someone else had been in before....a cushy job but somebody’s got to enjoy it I guess...
And I just read the US is STILL open to issue visas to potential Ebola carriers from all three Western African hot zones.
Over 100 apply per day.
Obama wants Ebola here......there is no doubt about it.
“Ebola is contagious, but it is not *that* contagious.” - G
How would you like to turn a doorknob that an ebola infected person turned 4 hours earlier?
Would you let your second grader turn that doorknob?
To me, the school is making exactly the correct decision.
“whole facilities will be closing their doors whenever someone sneezes within a mile.”
What is going to happen when flu/cold season hits? Obama and the CDC can’t think that far ahead.
