I think the problem is that smart people assume everyone else can discern foolishness from rationality and that it will sort itself out, but there are far too many fools for that to work, and we get things like this being believed and said.

but seriously, if it gets to a big city:

mexico city
mumbai
rio

large cities, dense population, large slums

I'm just hoping that all the stupid people get it and die. I was only a volunteer at a hospital for a few months out of the year during high school and had to go through the same disease prevention classes that the full time staff goes through. The fact that nurses and doctors are getting it just shows that there is clearly a lapse in judgement somewhere down the line. Strictly speaking about the US cases and the doctors that were brought here... I understand that it is harder to control in less advanced/more densely populated areas of the world.

I'm still assuming the guy was thinking more Altanta/L.A./NY large city but from what I know of Rio et al it could spread as quickly among the poor there as it has in Western African countries.

I'm talking about places where there is large population NY, LA, Altanta. Not saying its going kill everyone or everyone will get. Its just be affectting more people then most hospitals can handle at thoeses location s.

I think we are well over due for a good old fashion plague. Plus we need a culling the world is getting to busy.





















Not really though it is concerning when the people that are supposed to know what they are doing get infected.

[fight4life28]

Exactly^ its already taken many lives. Over reacting is better then not doing anything and regretting it later...

[mrsleeve]

Well lab tech on cruise boat is clean and clear

And 2 countries in Africa say that they've cleared Ebola now.

[///M42 sport]

What is "many lives?"

There are numerous other diseases in Africa that take ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE more lives than Ebola.

Granted that's comparing Africa as opposed to just Guinea/Sierra Lione/Liberia, but the gubmint is just trying to distract you with typical fear mongering.

[BLACKCHARM88]

Everyone is scared about ebola lol

Shouldn't everyone coming back from Africa be on house detention while they clear them for the virus?
