If we have been infecting monkeys with Ebola for years in the United States, for testing, why do you think we can’t handle bringing that American Ebola doctor to our Ebola treatment center?

I have no problem providing the best possible treatment for those two courageous Americans who were merely trying to remedy the suffering of others, but for the life of me I don’t understand why the CDC wouldn’t secure treatment through a foreign base or hospital? Why risk a pandemic of Ebola, one of the deadliest contagions ever known to man, by consciously introducing it to our urban epicenters?

I don’t think it matters. Our biggest threat is Ebola coming through the open borders.

American citizens can’t take mouthwash or tweezers on a flight without being questioned or detained, yet somehow Ebola doesn’t rise to that level of discretion because Washington – ground zero for incompetence and corrupt leadership – says so?

Bravo.

So far, more than 100 health workers that were on the front lines fighting the virus have ended up contracting Ebola themselves.

Have you seen the conditions over there? Rewashing gloves and boots and sometimes no electricity or running water and African staff and tattered protective gear?

LOL comforting thought isn't it?

I’m amazed at how many FReepers think that Ebola is no worse than a case of the sniffles. Just amazed. Okay. It’s no big deal.

“There are documented cases of trained experts contracting Ebola while wearing environmental suits and dying”

Citation please. The doctors in third world countries (where this virus has its outbreak) are not in full containment gear. They do NOT have the types of sterile conditions that modern medicine uses routinely.

This is NOT an airborne vector disease. It is a disease that is transmitted by having intimate contact with body fluids. The people catching and dying from this disease have come in contact with the body fluids of infected people.

Since 1976 when the disease was first identified there are less than 5000 documented deaths. This is NOT the sign of a rampant easily spread disease.

Get your head out of the scare tactics of silly people who understand nothing

Libs should worry what happens to them when the USA looks like the Walking a Dead. At that point there will be a bounty on them, which we will fill with joy. (Sorry to be so morbid, but.....)

Reap what ye shall sow, lefties. It’s coming.

SEVEN SUSPECTED CASES OF EBOLA IN THE PHILIPPINES

liberians are desperate to leave the country and are getting out to where ever they can

I think South Africa has some suspected cases too.

[MarMema]

Lagos has eight suspected cases of Ebola, all in people who came into contact with Nigeria's first victim who died last month, the health commissioner said on Tuesday, with one case confirmed.

This is exactly how very bad situations get worse. Without quarantine these people are getting to where ever they can and infecting others.

Minnesota Liberians struggle to get loved ones out of Ebola-stricken areas

It is just amazing that these countries were not put under quarantine...now it could be too late.

I don’t see Obama being as power hungry as the Clintons. They are the ones we should be wary of. Obama is just filling time until he can go into retirement. I think he is sick of the job.
