Not the smartest thing to do. Either you get infected, or you prevent infected people from getting treatment, or both.

Bring Out Your Dead

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...

Leave’em die. It’s called thinning the herd.

adding that the attackers in Macenta had accused MSF of bringing the disease to the southeastern town.

Denying the accusation does not make the possible truth of the accusation disappear.
Only Obama has been sanctified to do that. I thus hope we will hear much more about this incident.

We’ll see the effects of this in 7-14 days.

I wonder how you would go about isolating an entire continent?

You’re right. This could easily spread the disease.

From the same continent that brought us AIDS.

They didn’t name Africa the Dark Continent for no reason at all.

Perhaps one of the “healthier” carriers could get a job at the IRS or the secret service?
