The government’s reactive position on all of this Ebola is disconcerting at best.
The disinfection of sidewalks in front of Duncan’s stay at was juxtaposed by lax protocol. Nurses got sick over protocol??? Blaming them. How about seal the border as true protocol Mr. pResident

I agree with all of that. The "NBC photographer" in Liberia (actually a leftist activist) was probably infected by splashback hosing off a car. The emphasis on protocol was simply a distraction away from the inadequate PPE.

In network management for security we might cut off IP's for entire countries if there were attacks originating from part of the country. It is pretty crude and easy to get around, but we do it for the right reasons. It is no different in meat space, if there is an attack of disease, you stop it from coming the best that you can, not perfectly, but enough to greatly reduce the risk.
