The NBC cameraman has recovered and been released from the hospital according to news reports. I also have seen several reports that Amber Vincent is much improved and is up and about. Other than the botched case in Dallas the US is batting 100 with Ebola cases. The liklihood of anyone else coming down with it from Duncan is dwindling by the hour. It all unfolded just like the CDC said it would. Looks like Obama saved us afterall!

Already covered. Pham was upgraded to good condition today.
Hmm. So the question is was the travel advisory necessary or not? And the other poster was saying that historically travel bans have not worked. I can't make a determination one way or another from this one example. However, I am starting to suspect that there is not actual historical evidence on the efficacy of travel bans as claimed by another poster.

Just saw that, more good news is certainly welcome.
"Ashoka Mukpo, the cameraman diagnosed with Ebola while working in Liberia as a freelancer for NBC News, has been declared free of the virus and will be allowed to leave a biocontainment unit at the Nebraska Medical Center on Wednesday, the hospital said Tuesday.
A blood test confirmed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that Mukpo, 33 — one of eight Americans to have been diagnosed with Ebola — no longer has the virus in his bloodstream, the hospital said. It said he's free to head home to Rhode Island. "Recovering from Ebola is a truly humbling feeling," the hospital quoted Mukpo as saying. "Too many are not as fortunate and lucky as I've been. I'm very happy to be alive."
I don't know if you are there yet, but your solution to Ebola - let those Africans living in deplorable conditions die because it is just nature's way and they deserve it for not being born better
Let me break down what my view is again in another way that might be easier to grasp. And I'll use your logic. I can say you wanting to push our tax dollars to Ebola ridden countries, where instead it could be used in our own country to fund/help kids with cancer, research cancer, help to our homeless, helping inner city kids, kids who are homeless living on the streets/being abused, helping battered woman, on and on is a very selfish approach by you to not to want to solve these problems right at home first with our limited resources($). I thinking that would put you in the "wingnut" category. And you also just might have a role in Les Miserables!
I'm guessing you'd tell me we have plenty of money to fund the world's problems and our own and I'll again say we are already in the hole a pile of money and when our economy tanks, countries holding our debt decide to not want to hold our debt anymore for one of many reasons, etc., we are in for a world of hurt holding such debt. Though I understand many today figure if they have a 30k limit on their credit card, it means they can easily spend up to it and pay the minimum and......ooops.....lost the job. Now the fun begins on how debt can bite one hard.
"not being born better".
So parents of said country have zero responsibility, it's the tax payers of another country that should fund their selfishness having kids in such conditions? Amazing. Can I deduct thousands of dependents if this is the logic we are dealing with?
Again, I don't understand/work in a victim mentality mode. Many people in this world were brought up in countries with less resources and money and make things work somehow without being on the perpetual hand out train.
Does anybody know where Duncan was buried or burned? When who, where , how...what?
No, but why is his fiance here in America looking for an apartment?
My questions is does anyone know of the government/CDC getting a patent on ebola that happened in 2010 on Obamas watch?
Something very fishy.
