Your angle is that these students are from a country far, far away from Ebola counties.

Yep. I think it's crazy to keep kids home because others in the school went to a place where there have been no cases of Ebola during the ongoing outbreak, and a place that is over 2,500 miles from an Ebola outbreak.

The U.S. is farther away, yet we have Ebola infections here.

We do. Should we all keep our kids home? After all, all of the other kids in school have been to a country where there have been Ebola infections.

I don’t blame the parents one bit for keeping their kids home.

But why? Why keep kids home because they visited a country that happens to be on the same continent as an Ebola outbreak, but is thousands of miles away?

As you were stating on this thread yesterday, I thought you guys would find this interesting:

More people hospitalized in Turkey, suspected having Ebola
