Pretty piss poor argument, really. Ebola reston is NOT the same thing as Ebola zaire. Ebola reston infects and kills lower primates, but not humans.
Of the forms which infect and sicken humans (four out of five of the known Ebola species), none of them was present outside a BSL-4 lab prior to the most recent outbreak.
You still seem determined to find a mountain somewhere in what didn't even turn out to be molehill.
There are enough dead Africans to build a sizeable pile of corpses (over 10,000). Some molehill. They are still dying of Ebola over there.
Piss poor argument about what, describing what it means to actually “import” Ebola instead of someone coming home to be treated for the disease? And do you actually read our posts? “Researchers eventually realized they were dealing with a different strain, one now known as Ebola-Reston.”
You so wanted something massive and world changing, and you didn’t get it.
As far as this recent episode with Ebola, what infections resulted from Americans coming home for medical treatment (I’m not aware of any) and how many people who were brought in for treatment were not Americans or already living here, none? How many American citizens died from Ebola, none? How many people died around the world outside of Africa, 4 or 5?
You still seem determined to find a mountain somewhere in what didn’t even turn out to be molehill, 10,000 dead in Africa, that is your big time disease, that was the end of the world scenario that you want to play up for America, where we lost zero American citizens, and only two people who came here sick?
