    I’ve said it again and again, for the US under the current administration it doesn’t matter what happens, we’d rather have 75% of our population dead than quarantined for 2 weeks because of our “liberties”

    Terrible as Ebola is, I’ll be surprised if this doesn’t disappear from the news cycle in a week or two only to resurface again in three to six months, regardless of how bad it actually is.

    Don’t get me wrong, it’s awful for those with it and their loved ones. It just feels like Ebola is a constant and convenient bogeyman with how frequently it turns up in the news. It’s almost like it’s being kept on a low boil on purpose.
