If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.


Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your......

(Since all records of obama's past were lost in a tragic boating accident and fire, no one can be certain that the guy in the red circle isn't him...)

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Given all the aid we’ve sent Africa, it would be fair to say - quarantine the Americans in top notch facilities in Africa, instead of risking an outbreak here.

I believe it was two people: Thomas Duncan and the fella who died in the Nebraska facility.

Uber will be ready to take them all bowling.

Why just Uber? Maybe Lift will want to get in on the action. Spread the misery.

After they stop for soup.

But BEFORE they lose their jobs for such behavior.

The other man was Dr. Salia. IIRC, both of them were over 40, and therefore had a high chance of mortality. Either way, we have a higher fraction of ebola patients dying in the U.S. despite our best treatment, than we do of measles patients, where vaccines, hospitalization, and antiviral drugs all allow for zero deaths most of the time. Plus, people have a right to be scared when they don’t want to have their body break open and bleed all over the place at death, or just be sick and close to death, so the people being scared of ebola was not without some merit.
