Vespignani has analyzed the likelihood that Ebola will spread to other countries. Using data on millions of air travelers and commuters, as well as mobility patterns based on data from censuses and mobile devices, he has built a model of the world, into which he can introduce Ebola and then run hundreds of thousands of simulations. In general, the chance of further spread beyond West Africa is small, Vespignani says, but the risk grows with the scale of the epidemic.
Ghana, the United Kingdom, and the United States are among the countries most likely to have an introduced case, according to the model.

The ruling class oligarchs will have the experimental vaccines and access to billion dollar bunkers loaded with food, water, ammo, gold and their private security forces.
My cousin is a pathologist at Sloan Memorial Kettering. Her response to the doc and nurse brought here to be treated: Ebola’s here.
Groovy man...
You know what they say about best-laid plans.
Yep all of us right wing, bunker loving,gun totting,Bible thumping preppers are really stupid now. Huh liberal media.. LOL (not you Kartofrapher)Don’t come a knocking on my door.
Now I suppose that approach to Ebola will be racist.
There are, sadly, some well hidden people/devils who have plans to terminate more than 100,000,00 to 250,000,000 Americans. A We The People Republic which works (and ours is not working now) is a hindrance to globalist plans.
There was no chance that a quarantine strategy could have been implemented or would have worked in the 1980s for HIV infection, for multiple reasons that have been discussed to death.
The Ebola situation is entirely different, quarantine is a highly effective and proven strategy under these circumstances.
The first step is to announce that no persons arriving from Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Senegal, Mali, or DRC will be given visas and likewise will not be permitted to leave US airports unless they submit to a 25-day quarantine at facilities established for that purpose.
This is simple, straightforward, legal, justified by the facts, and highly likely to prevent introduction of EHF into the United States.
The second step is for WHO to close the airports at Conakry, Freetown, Monrovia, and Bamako with the assistance of the US Navy (the Global Force for Good) which is the only power capable of enforcing such an order. I am not sure whether or not Lagos, Abuja, Kano, Port Harcourt, and Enugu, all in Nigeria, should be closed - that's a much, much bigger project and may not be justified by the facts yet. Dakar in Senegal is likewise "on the bubble", and the outbreak in DRC appears to be different in behavior than the one in West Africa.
A possible third step would be to close the borders of Ivory Coast, Upper Volta, Ghana, Togo, and Benin, but this is likely prohibitively expensive and doomed to fail anyway.
Within a month, hundreds of thousands or even millions of panicked people are going to be on the move - even if the Ivory Coast and Ghana use lethal force on the borders, they won't be able to stop the flow.
Brazil has to watch out for freighters and tramps trying to make the 1800 mile crossing from Monrovia and Freetown to Natal and Salvador - the virus will spread like wildfire in the slums of Brazil once it gets a foothold.
I haven't heard from CDC since Friday (nothing stops a 3 day Federal weekend), so I expect big updates tomorrow.
Who said I wasn’t a little alarmed? I’m just not believing 100,000 by December, sorry.
Heads up.
Even the empty suit asks us to prepare for disaster.

Oh, the empty suit who said that hurricanes can happen anytime and anywhere?
I have a month of food put away - not because of Ebola but because of the economy. When money runs out, we have food for about a month or two.

Thanks for the ping!
You’ve made your point, just drop it.
Are you the owner of this site to tell people to drop it? Or just another anonymous creep? If you want me to drop it people need to knock off posting to me.
Lady, I ain’t the owner of nothing except common sense.
Wich you just proved you ain’t got.
Quit whining.
Just another anonymous creep which is what I thought.
I wonder how many people tonight would take a friendly wager (which I’m sure is against FR rules) that 100,000 Americans will be dead of Ebola by December? How many, I wonder?
Youre Welcome, Alamo-Girl!
