your just old funny

Ebola needs to come/go to Washington, DC!!!!

That's what I thought! :D

Well, the bulk of the border crossers who do not get shipped elsewhere by the gubmint head to New York. Not wishing bad on the good people of New York, that's where they go according to FOX.

"We" meaning in Ohio, or the U.S. as a whole?

I guess if you live in Cleveland you could get that impression, with a population density (5,107/sq mi) closer to Tokyo (6,810/sq mi) than the city I live in.

The population density of Columbus GA, where I live, is 861 per square mile. The population density of my home state, Mississippi, is 63.5 per square mile. Over half the states (including most of the largest ones) have a population density of less than 100 people per square mile. "We" are not overpopulated by a long stretch.

Well if there is an outbreak here is the outbreak center for your area..hope you don't need a gas station on the way...Looks like WY is hosed too!

For what my two cents is worth, I’m amazed at the arrogance of our medical community!

Everyone from medical consultants on national news channels, to the head of the hospital where the vics will be kept, are saying that the American system is the best in the world; that extra precautions have been taken and everyone can relax, etc, etc…

If everything is so foolproof, why did we have the scares in the past couple of weeks about protocols not being followed in the CDC, and cardboard cases full of old vials of anthrax and smallpox being improperly stored.

Did anyone else see the video of the doctor, who is now infected, treating his patients? His arms from wrists to under the sleeves of his scrubs were covered with open plaque psoriasis sores. Then he was treating infected people without wearing a mask or gloves! As hot as it gets in western Africa, it is an unconscious movement to wipe off some sweat from brow or other skin areas. He wasn’t wearing gloves and had open sores! Why is anyone, especially him, surprised he got infected?

Now we’re bringing them home where there in such good hands that nothing could ever go wrong…go wrong…go wrong!

Everyone has a family and loved ones. I can’t see jeopardizing a large population with the excuse we are bringing very sick people home to be with their ‘loved ones’.

I sure hope my pessimism is misplaced and wrong, but I don’t trust the medical profession as much as they trust themselves.

I think bringing them back to the States is a very bad and scary plan. (Rant over…)

Well, actually, yes. No ... make that HELL YES!

If it was my loved one, I'd be kicking, screaming and crying but I'd not be looking to bring them 'home.' The lives of a few do not outweigh a few hundred million in my book.

Ebola is spread only by contact with body fluids. It kills quickly and rarely spreads beyond the original area of infection zone.

Read "The Hot Zone" good factual book.

RARELY do you fly Ebola patients out of the infection zone. This IS one of those "rarely" events.
