I grew up in Africa and was infected with a blood borne disease. I was treated for this disease in the appropriate ward if an African bush clinic run by Southern Baptist missionaries.

I wasn’t allowed to travel back to the states until I could prove I no longer had the disease.

This was in the 70’s though. When most of the government bureaucrats had more clues than ‘compassion’.

Yep - they say on one hand that it might spread all over the place. On the other hand, they express confidence that it will be contained.

I say, "Murphy was an optimist - plan accordingly".
