Ebola - 30,000 In Nigeria Believed Exposed, No One Knows Who

The catastrophic Ebola outbreak in West Africa may be spreading faster than health experts previously believed. Yesterday, officials in Nigeria said that they were looking for up to 59 people who may have been exposed to the lethal virus by flying on a plane with Liberian-American Patrick Sawyer, who died soon after getting off a flight in Lagos.

On Wednesday, the health authorities there said that they have expanded their search from 59 people — to 30,000.

A couple hundred people gathered in any terminal, with Ebola, would be cause for serious alarm. However, that’s not what you stated.

You referred to Liberia as a “major city,” and called its airport not only “a hub of international and national travel” but one “with millions of people going thru their airports daily.” Sorry, but that is off on all counts.

The actual Monrovia airport looks like the size of a Greyhound depot in a small city. You obviously don’t know what a transportation hub IS. Try something like JFK/ATL/ORD/DFW or LAX. Those are transportation hubs.

Your splitting hairs...

It’s a third world country...so by their standards it would certainly be considered a city and a hub.

I know you like to debate...this is not something I want to debate about. It’s fruitless.

Caww, EDINVA is correct. The photo you posted is not current and was taken two and a half years ago here:

While we're on the subject of photos, caww, you have continued to ignore Free Republic's copyright restrictions despite our many requests. Tonight we have had to remove several more of your copyright violating posts, including from the BBC, Associated Press, The Atlantic, ABC News.

Again we ask that you please follow the copyright rules which all other Freepers are expected to follow.

Thank you for your cooperation.
