It is in Northern Virginia. I believe Mark Levin’s Bunker is there.

Loudoun is in northern Virginia, fronting on the Potomac. The eastern part is within commuting distance of DC; the western part of it is still mostly rural, full of extremely costly and beautiful historic houses and horse farms. It’s one of the richest counties in the US, the site of many Civil War actions, and the home to presidents and other influential people.

Please put the state when you post. I have no idea where Loudoun County or Leesburg is. Thanks

This particular Loudon County is Virginia, between Washington DC and the Blue Ridge.

[Boiler Plate]

It is up the Potomac River from DC on the VA side. I think Mark Levin lives nearby. I am sure he will be in rare form tonight.

People have been working on vaccines for many years, unsuccessfully. Some point out that it changes too much to corner with a vaccine.

[NorthMountain]

No.

This Loudon County is Virginia.

One month.

I was thinking maybe three. I hope we're both wrong

and that the disease is spread through direct contact with the bodily fluids of a person who has Ebola,” Goodfriend said.

Well, we know that doesn't happen in prisons................

[Tax-chick]

I hope we’re both wrong, too, but the trend is bad, and it’s especially bad because the relevant authorities have no sense of urgency.

Maybe, but even a partial vaccine could arrest the current outbreak ... like with flu.

I resemble that ... ('cept I live in WEST Virginia).

*In all but three cases the patient was infected with Ebola while in West Africa. Infection outside Africa has been restricted to health workers in Madrid and in Dallas. DR Congo has also reported a separate outbreak of an unrelated strain of Ebola.

One of my FRiends here in NC refers to himself and his kinfolk as “Caucasian recyclables.”

I’m a Missourian aborigine.

Sure wish the state or country was ID in headline.

Extreme northern tip of Viginia, borders West Virginia and Maryland (all three meet at Harper’s Ferry WV).

Dulles airport is there.

Loudoun County, VA: hospital is about 15 miles from where I sit.

In a couple of weeks ya'all will be in the same boat.

Texas won't be so far away any more...

It isn't an issue of "non-Africans". When a bar fight happens in a bar downtown, it's not your problem. When it happens your living room, you have to deal with it. We did a pretty good job of excluding the pestilence in the world from crossing our borders until we got a totally incompetent, anti-American asshole elected.

Loudon County, Virginia.

[Tax-chick]

It seems to me that you just agreed with me.
