I’m very glad they were treated and have mostly recovered.

I’m not glad the entire country was exposed to mortal peril, I’m not glad that they’ve been released onto the streets to mingle with hundreds, perhaps thousands of random strangers and during the period that repeated tests of other survivors demonstrate that they could still have active Ebola viruses in their secretions.

I will be really glad if no one they touched, sneezed near, ate with, used a public restroom before, or was ‘intimate’ with them gets sick in the next 42 days.

Only then will I be confident that we have dodged snake-eyes on those two rolls of the dice.

They could just as easily and should have been treated where they fell ill.

Yes, the two Christian missionaries were treated at our top Ebola unit and they are alive and well and cured.

Now we learn that not only did some not want them to receive that top notch American treatment, but that they were to be kept in Africa even if they somehow survived what little help is available in Africa.

That can’t be encouraging to the hundreds of GIs, and missionaries and CDC personnel fighting Ebola on the front lines in Africa, trying to limit its spread and cost in human life.
