Good Lord, calm down and stop implying things. First of all, that does not sound at all like a Muslim name and second of all, whatever his religion, he is an American citizen who seemed to have no intent of wrongdoing - just a guy who was based in Liberia when he became ill. He didn’t jump a plane and come back under false pretenses, he went to MSF, which diagnosed him, and NBC took it from there In deciding he’d come back to US.

ONE news person comes back from assignment with the Ebola virus so odumbo sends 8500 of our military people to solve the spread of the dreadful disease. To me that is asking for total elimination of all those unfortunate military people and whomever they come in contact with when/if they ever return. IMO, odumbo wants this and his actions have thus far proven it. Words cannot describe how much I despise him.

By the way, not hard to to find out that he’s the Buddhist kid of some crazy hippies, hence the name.

I agree with your idea of lets chill a moment and take a step back.

Having said that, what is the purpose of bring a third known Ebola case back to the US?

There is NO experimental drug available for immediate use. We used the last available dosages on the second doctor weeks ago. According to an article in The Telegraph (UK), also posted on Free Republic, ZMapp might not be available in limited quantities, “more than a few hundred treatment courses” until the Spring of 2015. That’s SEVEN MONTHS from today. What is the life expectancy of a confirmed Ebola patient?

My bottom line - returning this infected person to the US will do nothing for him. He is trading in a hospital bed in Monrovia for one in the US. While that, alone, is a significant improvement it means nothing in the near term future. It will, however, expose uninfected people in the US to Ebola thus creating potential infection chains that could (will actually) spread Ebola.

So why?

Upon review I think I now know why. Actually there will be 3,000, or more, whys. If you don’t establish in the minds of the American public that you can safely return infected people from Ebola “hot spots” opposition to the deployment of 3,000 American troops to help “fight” Ebola becomes based on medical facts not political theory.

Any troops deployed to help “fight” Ebola can not be safely returned to the CONUS until sometime late next summer. Any one who is infected by Ebola prior to June 2015 has effectively received a death sentence. “People lied and American soldiers died.” - sound familiar to anyone?
