I have been a medical missionary. And I am somewhat familiar with this particular man.
This “nutcase” has treated thousands of people for other things while you were sitting at your keyboard . It was not a waste of anything.
He got Ebola. We can debate where he should be treated. That’s fine.
But if you are a fellow Christian, then you need to seek this man out if he recovers, and apologize for calling him a nutcase. He is a rational man, called by God to do what he does. If you cannot grasp the concept, then you need to revisit just about everything that you think that you know about Christ.
If you are familiar with this man, why did he let his child stay in a hot zone? Pretty irresponsible.
If he becomes patient zero for an outbreak in this hemisphere he will be remembered for none of the good things he’s done.
He will be remembered as the instigator of an outbreak.
And his family won’t be safe anywhere in this country.
Don’t believe me? Peruse social media on this today.
Trust the CDC? Yeah.

God bless all of them who provide relief to the dying in Christs name. He is not a nutcase but a hero and potentially a martyr. His reward will be huge
That said, I find it a little difficult that selfless individuals like this physician would chose to bring this virus to a totally naive population. I hope he survives and we get to hear his reasoning
