I certainly hope so, Jeremiah. I have an old friend in New York who has been working with some West African women on a committee at the UN to figure out how to help the children there. I told her that I worried about her because you can never tell if some of these women had relatives visiting West Africa and then coming back to New York who might be stricken with this terrible disease.
