We Dont Know Everything About Ebola



...there is no way we can and I think we are all fooling ourselves if we think going by the textbooks will keep us safe.

This could be a slight variation of Ebola which could change everything.

I know the POTUS is trying keep us from fear but I think we will see this event take several more angles until it is figured out.

it's intellectual and educational level as being above the norm. I can't believe the level of Ebola scare shit going on here.
You have nothing to support what you posted.

when the whack-a-doodles were convinced that Bushco caused the tsunami by using some sort of powerful ray gun from space or a below-water explosive device that didn't explode but instead rocked the ocean floor and sent the waves a-running!

Got so bad, the NY Times picked up on it and Skinner had to officially ban all such nonsense.

In other words, you ain't see nothin' yet on the levels to which this place can sink (self-promoted intellect and education levels duly accounted for).

I can't believe the panic and speculation on DU...
The ONLY cases in America are from CONTACT with an Ebola victim. Close contact, bodily contact...They are healthcare professionals, not bus drivers, not 7-11 clerks, not school teachers...they are people who (it looks like) did not follow protocol and became contaminated...
Stop the panic please.
