Nothing, all it has to do with is the nation of fear that is compounded by the media. Last I heard Ebola is only transferred by FLUID contact and not air... WHO | Ebola virus disease

Unlike wingnuts, Florida.bob doesn't fear EVERYTHING.

What "goal post" move was that?
My post said "Wingnuts live in fear of EVERYTHING.
I swear, modern "Conservatism" is a mental illness - what else do you call it when people are afraid and paranoid about everything?"
You replied to THAT post.
I responded accordingly.
Do you not know the meaning of the word "EVERYTHING"?
Or is that your reading comprehension is poor?
Is that another trait I should tag Conservatives with?

I still don't understand what your point is. Are you saying that no one should have unprotected sex unless they are 100% certain that their partner is HIV-negative? How realistic is that? And how would that even be accomplished? There is a lag-time for HIV to even show up on a blood test, let alone an antibody test. And I doubt that most married people tell their spouses that they are having a sexual affair with someone else. Are you supposed to have your spouse tested every time you want to have sex?

So, you're saying that unless a child can be produced, a person who acquires HIV through sex does not deserve to be treated for it?

There was a good thread about Ebola, it disappeared. Now, we are stuck with this thing.
