If anyone had asked me beforehand I would have said it was a certainty. Communicable diseases are like the weather. You cannot control them you build shelter and hope the roof does not leak. Similarly with Ebola or any disease you take what precautions you can without causing undue misery and ride it out.Who said Ebola would never reach the USA?If you knew a fucking thing about communicable disease then you would know how ignorant it is to spread blame around, might as well blame Obama for bear attacks or birds pooping on your car. We have crowded the world with humans who like to travel, nothing would have prevented Ebola from spreading to America, we just have to deal with it.Obama's administration really has an ability to pick the wrong choice routinely.
Some libs around here repeatedly said it would never reach the US and that it wasn't much of a concern. Why the cavalier attitude when Obama wasn't restricting travel or putting the quarantine rules back into place?
LINK pretty please.
I haven't read any liberal posts on this board that said that we would never have a case of Ebola in America, so where are you getting this from?
Fighting disease has always been a trial-and-error process where people die before an effective strategy is developed after a lengthy period of time and people will still die. We in America are spoiled by our relative lack of deadly pathogens compared with other parts of the world, it is not possible to keep them all out all of time.When people were wanting Obama to take measures when he was doing nothing, many on the left made snide remarks that we were spreading fear and worrying about something that wouldn't affect us. One poster said Ebola couldn't be compared to swine flu, which Bush was criticized for not doing more about. Now we had a hospital unprepared to deal with one single Ebola patient and others saying they don't have the necessary supplies to protect staff. Shouldn't preparation have been a priority, just in case?
Why don't you look through the threads on Ebola and see the way some of us were talked down to for worrying that it would reach here and potentially cause a problem. The epidemic in Africa started with one or two patients. While I wouldn't expect them to be prepared, there is no excuse for us not to be. The first patient diagnosed died because he didn't get enough care at the first signs. That points to hospitals not being prepared to watch for Ebola and the job of the CDC is to ensure that medical personnel are informed and ready.
They even knew in Texas this person had Ebola and the transmission happened during care. How more easily can this spread when an unsuspecting medical community faces this in more rural areas? There was a survey of Nurses nationally and most feel unprepared with over a third reporting a lack of protective garb.
Ebola is not swine flu. Ebola has almost zero potential to spread in the U.S. Calm down.
A medical professional well aware of the danger and using proper protective gear contracted the disease in a hospital. Leftys on this board claimed we had nothing to worry about that the threat was no big thing, that we should not quarantine nor stop passengers from effected countries from entering the US. They claimed we would have no trouble with an occasional case and that our medical services had nothing to fear.Who said Ebola would never reach the USA?If you knew a fucking thing about communicable disease then you would know how ignorant it is to spread blame around, might as well blame Obama for bear attacks or birds pooping on your car.

That poo-pooing you so hate are reasonable people telling you quit pissing your pants in unreasoning fear. We now know how to avoid AIDS transmission and have very effective drugs to treat it and no pants-pissing made that happen, deliberative action by cool heads did that. Also making Ebola into a partisan issue is absolutely retarded.All this poo-pooing by left-wing mouthpieces here sounds exactly like the litany in San Francisco when queers were dropping dead from a mysterious illness no one had yet isolated. I was there.
The truth of the matter is that the left, because of its very makeup of self-absorbed, juvenile, tunnel vision degenerates, doesn't give a fuck if five million Americans drop dead of an epidemic, just so long as it isn't them who drops dead of the epidemic.
I direct your attention back to San Francisco, when the only people affected/infected by the AIDS epidemic were democrats, liberals. Did they display five cents worth of self-discipline or empathy for their fellow man by containing the epidemic? Fuck no! Fare warning.
What part of A trained medical professional properly protected from body fluids escaped your pea brain? A person that knew the risk and took what was considered appropriate precautions still came down with the virus. Meanwhile we allow open travel from the infected Countries to our Country. Nothing to worry about indeed.That poo-pooing you so hate are reasonable people telling you quit pissing your pants in unreasoning fear.

Spoiled? What an ugly way to describe all the hard work, the research, the billions of dollars we spent to advance the control of diseases.Fighting disease has always been a trial-and-error process where people die before an effective strategy is developed after a lengthy period of time and people will still die.
