I definitely think this is the time for mass hysteria... Fox have been at this for about ten days now... Time to panic...
Listening to actual experts who know what they are doing is just plain stupid at this time...
I think we should be listening to the guys who cut the NIH funding (the Vaccine makers) and World Health Org (the containers of the disease) instead of the CDC or WHO..
Also don't listen to a vast majority of epidemiologist who tell you if you stop flights, people travel using land which is far less trackable. This makes traceability of contact far less reliable...
But Epidemiology is science, might find that tricky...
I am not some erratic nut that thinks that the world is ending. If you feel so passionate about saving the world, do it. Volunteer and go to Liberia. Don't hide behind your usual ..."I am better than the whites over there, at least I give those people pity" by throwing sarcastic jabs at people like me. In fact, I bet you that I am actually less racist than you. How many blacks have you hired?
1. Not all epidemiologists are on board with whats presented. In fact, that is why there is a hearing in the first place. The Department of Defense received such gaping and conflicted theories that they wanted an actual hearing, yes - the W.H.
2. Africa itself? You would think that the "liberal learned elite" would glean from healthcare workers ON the continent that actually have a travel ban and have contained the virus in the past, or are you too smart to learn from those people?
3. NIH has only 2 beds to contain ebola and you are not alarmed, in the least? You dont think that we at the very LEAST should standardize our hospital protocols for 30-90 days before we accept more individuals from infected areas? My questions are rhetorical because I really dont care what you think.
The issue for you is illegal immigration, isnt it? Because the borders that we would have to track is South America and Canada. You people act like Africa is down the street. They simply dont want to admit that they are not only inept that they are liars.
The CDC has no infrastructure to address this properly, we can see this by the two nurses, the nurses union and the variations in baseline protocol for symptoms.
Go scold someone else with your robotic cheerleading!
