Katie Hopkins sparks new outrage by branding Ebola outbreak 'efficient'

MORE than 3,750 people have died during the current Ebola pandemic – but that didn't stop controversial Katie Hopkins PRAISING the disease for being an "efficient" means of population control.

Writing on Twitter, the former reality TV star posted repeatedly about the fatal viral infection currently spreading throughout west Africa.

"Woman next to me was cold," the former Apprentice star wrote this morning, adding: "I tried: 'It is because I throw so much shade'. She took that as code speak for Ebola and moved seats."

...She tweeted: "I rather admire the efficiency of Ebola.

"From a Malthusian and marketing perspective, it is beyond reproach."

Responding to her comments, fellow Twitter users labelled Hopkins a "lobotomy candidate" for posting her "offensive stupidity"...

But some were far more positive about her Malthusian praise to the killer disease, with one stating: "Okay, I have to admit Katie Hopkins may be a mean bully, but she is in fact right about a thing or two... and FUNNY if you're not her target."

Malthusianism is a school of ideas based on the 18th century theories of Reverend Thomas Robert Malthus, who believed that whenever a population became too large to sustain itself, there would always be two "checks" to return it to a more comfortable level...

However, undeterred, Hopkins quickly followed up her first Ebola tweet, by adding: "If I did get Ebola and start bleeding from the eyeballs, I fear many would imagine that is normal for the Hopkins."

Clearly Malthus didn’t know what he was talking about — never attribute to conspiracy (or misery and vice) what can be attributed to Smith’s Invisible Hand. If Malthus were around now, he’d be running ACORN or Occupy.

You expect Ebola to only affect blacks in America, or what?

Hah, agree. He’s still a shill actor on Fox. A traitor to his own beliefs.

When you can find some way to express your thoughts, please do, because so far you haven’t made any sense at all.

People from the Infected countries with recent travel to them should be in quarantine or at lest lockdown.

No travel with those countries and no entry for anyone or any craft that has been in or through those countries.

Our southern border should be zipped up.

We have disease carrying illegals from 'PC Protected' countries and treating then will be deadly. We should be a high state of alert.

What is currently known about Ebola is that it highly infectious but not highly contagious (that we know). Any infected bio matter/fluid contact and you will contract it .
