Do you think you can't get away from coverage of Ebola coming to the United States and spreading in Africa? Well, somehow these people were able to avoid it, at least somewhat.

Hundreds of confused twitter users are asking "who is Ebola," asking as if the virus infecting and killing thousands of people in Africa is a person.

Yes, I'm serious. Here are just a few of the impossibly dense people who think the Ebola virus is a person:

lowe infoe?

They’ve been doing that about ebola since July at least. I’ve cut/pasted some of the account names. They twit for a week or so and then disappear.

“Lefties do that stuff all over the internet. The idea is to disrupt serious conversation by posting nonsense.”

haha....You, give them far more credit than they deserve.

[cripplecreek]

They are too ignorant to realize ebola doesn’t ask if you are a republican or a democrat.

I was watching some liberal chatter yesterday. They seem to think that living in the city actually makes them safer and ebola will kill off all us ignern't hillbillies. I quite enjoyed wrecking that fantasy for them by pointing out that disease spreads much more easily in the city.

I point out that their "greater sanitation" in the city is all interconnected just like their water and sewers. In contrast, I have my own well and septic system and routinely go between 72 and 96 hours without any physical contact with anyone and could easily go weeks without contact. Most urban liberals seldom go more than a couple of hours without contact.

And these are a sample of democratic voters!

Your heard of online poker?... Ebola is the new online bowling service

most urban liberals would die within 1 week with no contact with others. (No food, no water, no lights, no heat ..)

Would be very, very uncomfortable (struggling!) without intimate contact with others for greater than 2 days. (Lock them in the apartment for 48 hours? Then imagine 20 days locked in.)

Are surrounded by millions of others equally destitute and even more vulnerable. Even more evil and desperate for food, water, heat, light.

Deprive millions downtown of alcohol, drugs, medicines? No water? No sewage? No dryers, washing machines, dishwater, refrigerators, telephones?

Yeah. Who’s vulnerable?

For some real hotties, ya gots to see her three sisters - Januvia, Victoza and Byetta.

Heck, everybody knows the virus that is a person is Obola, not Ebola.

[dforest]

If you really want to ruin their day, point out how it can be sexually transmitted. LOL

Semen and sweat. Someone could spit in their beer mug.

[dforest]

Darn shame they don’t disappear for good.

[VerySadAmerican]

Millenials

[ThePatriotsFlag]

There is no intelligent life on Twitter.

[PapaNew]

No, it's too full of nuclear fallout to be homoanything.

(Don't know how many got this, but the Enola Gay was the name of the B-29 Superfortress that dropped the A-bomb on Hiroshima.)

[Terry L Smith]

This is the outcome of ‘government schools’, as Neal Boortz used to say.

[bravo whiskey]

pronounce it ibola (eye bola) and half the 20 something apple snobs will thinks its a new phone or pad.

[GeronL]

You mean Ebola isn't a hat?

[GeronL]

Ebola is the daughter of Viola, the lady on the far left

[GeronL]

Play the new Ebola game on your smart phone today... oh crap, it’s one of those resource gathering, village building games... I hate those...

[Smokin' Joe]
