Interesting.
Wonder if it is really a lab escape.

Of course, this administration will do exactly the wrong thing - let patients in so they can spread it here.

Well, of course, Ebola is mutating with unknown consequences. That’s what viruses do. They mutate to survive.

I remember reading "The Andromeda Strain" as a kid when it first came out.

The “rapid containment” horse is just about out of the barn.
Where will you put the huge army ready to kill to enforce a quarantine on Western Africa?
If you aren’t willing to do that, then geographic spread is assured.

Never let a perceived threat go to waste! Thank God we all have access to Obamacare to fight this nasty bug!

When President Barack Obama announced the deployment of US forces to West Africa he said in an interview on Sunday that immediate intervention was vital. Otherwise, said Obama, Ebola could mutate, making it more easily transmittable, "and then it could be a serious danger to the United States."
That's the ticket.
Send in US troops to stop the mutating!

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Before we started importing Ebola cases, there was virtually zero risk of any Ebola epidemic in the US. Now, there is a nonzero risk. Some say it’s major, some downplay it, but no one will say it’s still zero. So already, it’s increased — which is VERY bad policy.
