“According to witnesses at the scene, these militiamen wanted all the expatriates to go home because according to them, Ebola does not exist in Butembo,”

Dozens of rebel groups are active in eastern Congo. There also has been some community resistance to Ebola containment efforts in a traumatized, wary region that had never faced an outbreak of the virus before

This month could see the highest rate of Ebola transmission yet, Kitchen said, adding “the trajectory of this outbreak is alarming.”

“the trajectory of this outbreak is alarming.”

That does nothing to relieve my fears.

“The situation could get out of control...etc.etc.etc.”

What to do when your patient is collectively too dumb to be saved? They are assisting in their own genocide.

...import enough of them so they can start claiming U.S. congressional districts as territories of Africa/Islam.

Complete travel ban. Now

Won't happen. More likely big pharma will come up with some untested vaccine. The gov will force people to take it. They've already conditioned the drones to get vaccinated, and even passed laws to force it. The excuse? Just over 500 Measles cases, mostly in unvaccinated people. That includes some infants with parents too stupid to keep their children out of crowds until they have immune systems.

I’m reading a well-written book “The Sixth Extinction” about what looks to be the end of life as it is on earth. Ever since man took dominance, we’ve annihilated plant and animal populations and spread invasive, destructive species all over the planet. Can we consider people who leave their natural environments as invasive species? It’s inevitable that disease will spread to those who don’t have the immunities to resist it. Been that way since the Neandrathals and HomoSapiens crossed paths.

Africa is also where AIDS originated and where the largest number of people infected with AIDS reside, over 25 million, the majority of whom are not gay nor intravenous drug users. The African solution for AIDS is to kill albinos and use their body parts.

Thanks DUMBGRUNT. Killin’ the doctor should fix everything.

Everyone knows what Shakespeare suggested for the lawyers.

Now the Doctor thing?
Would that be for just Physicians, and maybe Surgeons?
Ph.D.s? What of the Ph.D. ABDs?

And that most special group, the Doctors of Education, Ed.Ds???

Any exceptions allowed? I have some kin and friends that happen to be Physicians, and I really like our Veterinarian.

Who else thinks foreign aid actually HARMS Africa..?

It does and it doesn't. Much of it ends up in the warlords/oppressive leaders' hands, so yea. But, what does get to the general populace tends to be consumed and then gone. There's no planning for the future, no saving up $$ to buy fertilizer or big items to aid in farming. Much of life is all about the family, and the here-and-now. Aid helps temporary, but as soon as the aid is gone, it's back to the dirt for everybody
