I'm beginning to think the best way to stop this is just keep these people in and let it burn itself out. Sad, but there's a greater good here to think about.

And Obama wants to send the National Guard into this?

I agree with your observation in post #1.

Should you have Christian and other charities wanting to go in there, if the UN wants to go in and not with us being the primary player, give these people resources then to do it.

It certainly is an ethical dilemma and I do wish to be Christian.

That’s how it was stopped before, it burnt itself out because it had no mode of transportation outside the towns where it had sprung.

We are spreading it. It should have been contained.

Any rational Liberian with a passport and a credit card would try to get to the West. Soon commercial air service will stop because the airports will be besieged by desperate people trying to get out.

According to the “official” statistics, some 4500 people have died of Ebola.

From the sounds of this story, there could be 4500 bodies lying on the ground in Monrovia just as I type this out.

How come we never see photos of all these affected towns in West Africa?

That is the only way to stop it.

The ONLY solution may be the one in "The Hot Zone" - napalm the infected areas.

BTW, I'm not convinced that the kenayn usuper doesn't want to see similar scenes here.

I feel for these people but I agree with you. Airdrop food water and supplies to those who survive and wait and see.

I understand sending the Seabees and Army engineers to build more treatment center. Watch this video and you’ll see how badly they’re needed. So I have mixed emotions about sending the military.

But those countries definitely need to be quarantined. Nobody out. Anyone who wants to go help must understand they may not come back for a long time. I really don’t know what else could be done.

On a side note. Liberia, if I remember correctly, was founded by freed slaves from the US. Compare their living conditions to black people in the US.

Funny how they don’t apply their “for the greater good” philosophy to this situation, isn’t it?

They should be kept in, but we should also provide help.
It’s in our best interests to put the fire out as soon as possible.

Here is a more realistic look at the city Duncan left to come to the US. Monrovia didn’t get this way in a few weeks. The virus has been ravaging it for months. Duncan’s particular neighborhood was especially hard hit. Whoever is telling you otherwise has an agenda. I would stop listening to them.

I do agree that the CDC is disastrously wrong in its response to Ebola. So you are right; we do see eye to eye on that.

Shouldn’t we be studying why he has not become infected? And perhaps using his blood plasma as he CLEARLY has some form of immunity.

I’m not implying that the Ebola epidemic isn’t as bad as the WHO says it is. I think it’s worse, and the projections I’ve published in FR indicate that. However, I just noticed something curious... With all these reports of bodies lying in the streets, why aren’t we seeing any pictures? We see pictures of corpses beheaded by ISIS, so I don’t think it’s the “ick” factor.

Why would this be?

This could easily spin out of control based on these politician’s actions and result in millions of deaths or billions. It is simple math. Putting US aside for a minute — this may take root in south America and India and just wipe those countries out. Right now I see nothing stopping a worldwide pandemic unless they quarantine those countries - NOW
