Ebola is a “hot” virus - it kills its hosts quickly, SO if you can quarantine those infected and keep new folks from being exposed, it burns itself out. Two cycles (21 + 21) of no new cases usually means the end of an outbreak. If it’s spreading “faster than efforts to control it”, the efforts to keep those infected quarantined to prevent new exposures is not working. This outbreak appears to me to be out of control or very close to it. Usually, the Ebola outbreaks have been in the center of Africa - this is different because it’s ‘west’ Africa, where many travel centers are located so containing it in a remote area is not what is going on this time. The CDC says that with our ‘good hygiene’ and the good quarantine methods we have already (as opposed to African countries), any outbreak here could be controlled fairly quickly. My bottom line is that I’m not buying anything the ‘government’ is selling these days - too many lies over the dam already on pretty much everything.
I could see limited outbreaks(but catastrophic) though in the Gay and IV drug abuser groups. Because of their sex habits, an outbreak would go like wild fire. Just imagine the political drauma....they refused to be quarantined and to control their sex habits despite HIV....what would they do with Ebola?
Six examples:
The Boston Bombing and the methods that followed it to secure the brothers, Katrina, ObamaCare website, the Federal handling (BLM) of the Bundy incident, the border crisis, and the recent CDC protocol failures (there were several and they actually happen with regularity there. I know people who work there).
None of these alone, or reviewed all together, show that our Government can prevent, contain, or safely eradicate an Ebola outbreak.
If just one case is reported it’s going to be “stupid” crazy at your local Wal-Mart.
If a true outbreak occurs, that 1914-ish pandemic is going to look tame.
