Ebola Outbreak of 2014

@SOWT, I agree. I probably wasn't very clear in my post as I was meaning that we should study them more in order to have vaccines readily available for use here should it come here...expectedly or not.

That way, we don't have those with the virus here and nothing to treat them with pertaining to that specific virus.
 
The U.S. Army has started isolating soldiers returning from an Ebola response mission in West Africa, even though they showed no symptoms of infection and were not believed to have been exposed to the deadly virus, officials said on Monday.

So why isn't this common practice for anyone coming in from high risk/infected areas? Probably because this is happening in Italy, not U.S. soil.

I think it's the right thing to do, but I think it is something EVERYONE should have to go through if they are coming here from a "hot" country.

I haven't watched SNL in a while, but the kid in me wanted to see Jim Carry host again. I thought the opening was pretty funny, especially the Ron Klain.

And yet, you have the mentality of someone like this, who now has some splainin to do.

Ebola health care worker Kaci Hickox, who was released from quarantine with the support of the White House, is a Centers For Disease Control and Prevention employee, records reveal. The lawyer who helped earn her release is a recent White House state dinner guest.

Hickox was released from Ebola quarantine in Newark, N.J., Monday afternoon after the White House pressured New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to release the nurse that was working in Sierra Leone with Doctors Without Borders. Hickox’s case for release was also bolstered by New York civil rights attorney Norman Siegel, who took on Hickox’s case.

She looks like it must hurt. E-Bowler, I mean. And why is she holding her crotch? Does it effect you there? Is there some venereal aspect we should be concerned about?
 
Things that make you go Hmm...

In a different experiment, control monkeys were placed in cages 3 meters away from the cages of monkeys that were intramuscularly inoculated with Ebola virus.30 Control and inoculated monkeys both developed Ebola virus infection. The authors concluded that “fomite and contact droplet” transmission to the control monkeys was unlikely, and that airborne transmission was most likely,30 but they did not discuss the potential behaviors of caged non-human primates (e.g., spitting and throwing feces) that might have led to body fluid exposures
