The type of person who goes to school for years - doctors AND nurses - then volunteer for these 'doctors without borders' possible death positions are NOT like the rest of us - more courage - more insanity...
There was a thread last week about a hospital doctor who said he knew all the CDC procedures - and his hospital was checked out and fine... he just didn't know if health care professionals would chose to risk their lives over this disease. Or if they would call in sick.. or stop practicing.
If this disease get a foothold here we're going to have to put everything on the table... didn't mean to offend.
”Liberals” are willing to spend our grandchildrens’ futures on “protecting the earth” from CO2 - when there is scant evidence of any likelihood that the earth needs any help - and no chance that CO2 can be prevented from growing due to the dozens of coal-fired power plants being erected in China, with more in India.But all it takes is one unsuspected case of ebola and a little bad luck and/or a little bad faith, and it’s hard to be sure how many cases and deaths we might suffer. What if it gets into our high school locker rooms and our elementary schools???
How many health care personnel would get it? How many people would they infect? Caution is the only sensible course w/ respect to a disease for which we have no cure and only palliative treatment. But for the people who would have us all freeze in the dark in the vain hope of “saving the earth” from CO2 growth, minor inconvenience is too much to accept to minimize an actual, serious threat.
And spare us the conceit that “liberals” are the compassionate, courageous among us. They aren’t even actually liberal.
