What do you think about the temperature issue?

My fear would be a person is infected, as in the Amber Vinson case or the do-gooder Doc, and they leave contamination where it survives long enough to infect.

Now what if that person has a cold or the flue? Don`t they become a walking virus factory with the temperatures now increasing the window of contamination for the next victims?

Would the ratio then increase to more than 2:1? Now add an ISIS element due to the open borders..., it can snowball easily.

Given the KeyStone CDC Cops handling this thing, and their Assclown in Chief, I wouldn`t trust them farther than I could throw`em. We need to know.

Unfortunately I do not think we will know until we see how it acts. There have certainly never been infections in the wild in cooler less humid environments so we have little experience with what will happen.

I think the use of quarantine and all possible precautions is prudent, and hopefully we will never find out. Unfortunately, I think we are about to. Hopefully it will fizzle like SARS did, but one of these times a true epidemic will take hold. If not Ebola, we can apply what we learn from Ebola to the next threat.

Jihadists are a threat to our troops in Africa, jihadists staged an attempted coup in Mali. There isn’t much to stop them from crossing over into Liberia and disrupting attempts to deal with the virus there.
