Is it time to leave for Mars?

Back to reality, remember that both Nigeria and Senegal were able to contain their cases without the infrastructure of the US.

Will 20 people get infected or die out of the blatant incompetency of this incident? Quite possible. Will it become an outbreak? Very, very unlikely.

It's ok, the UK estimate is a handful of cases here (which is 5 casess), so multiply that up for the extra population in the States - still very few. Don't panic, our government isn't.

Perhaps the US should take advice from Nigeria and Senegal on how to contain it?

Interesting article.

A more interesting note is found in the latest graphics about the ebola outbreak in Africa:

According to WHO, the decline in numbers for Liberia is unlikely to be genuine. It rather reflects a detarioration in the ability of overwhelmed responders to record accurate epidemiological data.

You see the graphs and it would seem that finally the situation is being contained in Liberia hence the warning.

I especially like this "note"

<24 Apr: stated it was reviewing its 27 suspected cases and may toss all of them>

There's nothing like showing lots of impressive graphs and figures where one knows for certain they are all wrong. Whatever energy is going into collating such figures would be better spent helping the dying. It is pretty obvious no one could hope to record accurate figures.

It was the article that was interesting.

How can anyone be so stupid?

It's like believing in ID.

Incredibly dangerous, only one survivor and those quacks individuals will claim that homeopathy can cure ebola.

Nick Muzin, the deputy chief of staff for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz:

    'Before ObamaCare, there had never been a case of Ebola in the U.S.'

Time to blame AIDS on Jimmy Carter, I presume.
Otherwise it would have to be Reagan's fault.
On the other hand, since AIDS kills gays, it may have been G#d's gift to Ronny (who did not know how to properly use it though)
Sarcasm eating holes into my keaboard again.

That asshat really bothers me, Marco Rubio may be a sold-out opportunist but Cruz really goes to the bottom of the barrel, and it bothers me greatly how he supposedly represents what a Hispanic politician is. I haven't heard one single sensible thing coming out of his mouth nor do I expect it to happen as he is in the same league as Gohmert, Bachmann and Palin. The existence (and power) of said entities is proof enough that if there is a god in the world he must be truly evil.
