President Obama urged West Africans in areas affected by the Ebola virus not to touch the corpses of loved ones who had succumbed to the deadly disease in a public service announcement released by the State Department on Tuesday.
"When burying someone who has died from this terrible disease, it's important to not directly touch their body," Obama says. "You can respect your traditions and honor your loved ones without risking the lives of the living."

"If you feel sick with a high fever, you should get help right away," Obama said.

I wonder if he has any advice for me on washing my balls.
I sometimes play on a red clay surface and my balls get red.
Also, I wonder if he has any advice on cooking oils.
Gee, I love this prez, he's so cool.
