What more can we do than this and now will our military get it and bring it back to the USA
Ebola Outbreak A ‘Perfect Storm’ – US, Britain To Send Troops To Help Fight Ebola In West Africa – ‘Ebola Spread Is Exponential In Liberia’
The United States and Britain are sending troops and equipment to West Africa to help curb the spread of Ebola, officials said Monday, as the World Health Organization warned that the outbreak is outstripping the capacity to respond in one of the worst-hit countries.

The military forces will build treatment facilities in Liberia and Sierra Leone to help care for victims of the virus, which has killed more than 2,000 people since it was detected in March.

Scary hell yeah, can't believe our troops have to do this...

I get your point, but it doesn't mean we can ignore either one. Frankly we are foolish to allow people coming from infected cities and even certain countries to come to America without a quarantine.

There are no direct/ non stop commercial flights between infected cities/ countries and the US. The overwhelming majority of these people do not have passports, let alone the means to board a plane.

Nigeria is likely most at risk. And this would likely represent the greatest risk to the rest of the world without global action to contain it.

Please tell me the movie wasn't your only encounter with that story!

If so, you should read the book, it's sooooo much better. I think it would be a great idea for HBO or Starz to do a remake of The Stand. As long as they don't do the Under the Dome treatment that CBS did, it could be really great.

Africa is not a country. It is a continent, larger than all of North America by 2.6 million sq. miles. It has over 50 nations.
