Fear of Ebola has been climbing steadily in the United States since Tuesday's announcement that a Liberian traveler in Dallas, Thomas Eric Duncan, was diagnosed with the disease.
America's special vulnerability to Ebola is its limitations on access to health care. In times of contagion, societal risk rises with every uninsured or underinsured individual who struggles to work or go to school with a fever, and avoids bankrupting visits to health providers. One doesn't need to have a political position up or down on "Obamacare" to recognize and solve this.

Oh, so THIS is the angle their taking?
THIS is why we have to have an epidemic
by any means possible?
To “save Obamacare”?
What a load of CRAP!
BS!
More likely Obamacare will kill more. There are already longer waits, less doctors, and more crowded emergency rooms all due to ObamaScare.
All we need is single payer.
As a single payer beneficiary myself, I don’t see why we have to foot the bill for the rest of the world.
I think free health care if offered, should be only for Americans.
What do Obamacare and Ebola have in common? They both cause sever puking.
Go to the senior homes where everyone has had their shot...and the flu is all over the place.
Well, after I stopped laughing, this certainly gives new meaning to the term “death panels”.
Do not glibly dismiss the administration’s attempts to create a pandemic plague here in the US. They will achieve their goal of nationalizing secular life by any means necessary. The October surprise is upon us.
Poppycock!
I think they tried the epidemic thing a while back...with that U2 or something.
“What a load of CRAP!”
Indeed, but what else can we expect from the MSM?
Little boys and girls with dim-bulb-crat cheerleading outfits on, girly-girl pom poms, and no residual intelligence.
This writer assumes that doctors and other medical personnel are just going to blithely sacrifice their own lives and families for a culture that hates doctors. Bah. The nurses will run first, and then the doctors. And it will hit liberals the hardest, because they always believe that government will save them.
Guaranteed coverage to send me to a hospital that did not recognize that flu + recent trip to Liberia = potential Ebola?
RIIIIIIIGGGGHT!!!
knee pad journalism strikes againQQ
Then they wonder why the CFR is held in such low esteem by people living outside the Beltway.
The people who have to disinfect will run first.
Garret is living proof that his credentials are worthless. It's crap like this that proves the stupidity our elitist.
