    Election Year. We will find out all we need to know in 3 weeks. AFTER a few thousand folks have been infected, and after a few hundred or thousand deaths.

    PISSES me off.

    We work in hospitals and the Nursecall product we sell, install and service is sold nationwide. We expect to be getting updates from the manufacture as to how this could effect our position in hospitals. Naturally we have the product we sell installed in hospitals all over the country (including Dallas) so getting behind the scenes info could be interesting.

    We have to get certified with hospital infection control policies and Hospital Engineer programs on a regular basis. They discuss MRSA, aspergillosis and many other infections that we could have a hand in spreading by not following the hospital guidelines. Ebola may be another topic real soon if this doesn't get nipped in the bud. Can you imagine what a few infected folks wandering around could do to our country??? This thing could get tied to illegal immigration in a heartbeat if it's found out that an illegal has the disease. What about terrorists? Look at how tough it would be to battle that!?!?!?? Yeah ok I may be stretching it a little but I just don't think we have been told the whole truth yet.

    They keep saying you can't get it from airborn particulates...ok then why do they wear masks when dealing with it. I call Bull S hit and Zero isn't gonna to stop travel like most all of the other sensible countries even GB because God forbid he may offend somebody. I loathe that son of a bitch more every day, I mean I honestly hate his rotten sticking filthy guts!

    I wouldn't travel to Africa that festering S hit hole if you paid my way gave me free lap dances from Heidi Klum and I had all the Ribeye's and cold Bud Light Platinums I could drink. Get these infected MFer's the hell out of our country NOW and stop all travel to these third world crap holes at once!!!

    how it got here

    PRIVATE AND STOCK HOLDR COMPANY'S. We cannot tell airlines where to fly.Ebola got here just the same way a nuke could, UPS Fed Ex,even airlines carry cargo we don't know about. It was warned a long time ago, that quick global travel would develope problems, but that was toned down, free enterprise will cure all ills.I wouldn't care one bit if ALL travel to All africa was restricted. We'd just need to learn to live with a few things we like. Business and industry coild care less what happens anywhere if it adds to the bottom line.

    Sh-t happens

    Spanish flu,ever hear of it? that was one of the biggest factors in ending WW1. Hundreds of thousands died from it. Asian flu, I rember that one real well, I was TDY in the army, traveling between zones and got three flu shots in amonth.I would get a woody eating "lice klispys". Then came swine flu, got a couple of those, and thought the muppets was a stag film. There have been tiny creatures killing us for centurys.

    not to worry!!!!

    A few african states are closing their borders with the affected states. That ought to work, works here right? BUT, there are over 100,000 chinese construction workers in parts of west africa. Throw in a few thousand other asian workers, now there might be a slight minor problem. Are they in contact with africans?.

    NONSENSE............Several countries already have stopped personal travel to these cess pools. In the event of such a possible health issue and can be done they are debating it on Capital hill right now ans it will eventually be done watch and see. Can't do it my ass..................won't do it is more like it.

    Where are the airlines????

    Why don't they quit flying there? How many airlines have terminals in west africa? Do you think it's impossible for a liberian to gey to kenya, or niarobi, and then to fly to south america?What I get a kick out of this" wheres the gobment in all this"/ And if nobahma himself stopped all flights, it would be against the law. Fever screening is a joke, asking where you came from is another one to chuckle about. And yes or no on a printed form, that reaaly works everywhere. Ebola has been around and known since 1957, as long as darkies were dying, who gave a crap. Aids was payment for sin, till innocent folks started getting it, and it spread world wide.Yes we are world leaders in some forms of mediciine, we have old guys walking around with woodies, and dont know where they live.We have woman who shoild be under ground walking around with nice buns, and perky boobs. In the mean time polio is making a come back in some places, measles, whopping cough is showing up again, because we dont want no big gubment. WERE ALL GONNA DIE. LIVE WITH IT.

    Not sure what the big deal is. It's spread though mucous membrane contact with infected bodily fluid, same as AIDS and other well known diseases. We don't walk around worrying about getting AIDS, at least I don't. If it was spread thru respiratory droplets or something like that I'd be concerned. Fear mongering at its best. Create a problem, people turn to gubment to fix, they "fix" the non-existent problem, pocket some votes and cash, rinse and repeat.
