No. I'm for targeted quarantines--keeping people who are known case contacts from flying. And I'm for airport screenings and temperature checks to keep potentially infected people from flying. And for closing our southern border where a whole lot of people with diseases that have significantly more potential to cause widespread illness and death than Ebola are walking right in.
A disease that causes high mortality but is minimally contagious is not as much of a public health issue as a disease that is highly contagious and causes low mortality. Or, in simple language, Ebola is not a public health threat; influenza is. So are measles, polio, Chagas disease, etc.
Do you think Ebola in Africa IS totally different than Ebola in the United States? Or do you think it's the same virus that infects and kills in the same manner?
Earlier this year there was only ONE case of Ebola in Africa. Was it NOT a dangerous disease back in March?
