I saw an article saying that Americans claimed to "invent" the virus and produced a vaccine which they are planning to sell to countries.

This is all a trick of the American government to scare the world, destroy Western Africa and get money....hmm

I love the Spaniards as they are a very emotional and proud people but some of them need to calm down with this ebola situation. It's not going to destroy Spain. It's not the end of the world.

We use either "amigo" and "tío", though the last one is more frequent here in Spain".
Anyway, I think we Spaniards are really entering into panic mode because of mismanagement to our corrupt government.

The doctor who treated the diseased nurse in Alcorcón hospital says that the protection clothes he wore was way short sleeve, and he noticed the nurse did positive on ebola by media coverage instead of chiefs to the hospital as well.

In Spain people, specially from the North never use the word amigo, as freely as Mexicans do.

It's not going to destroy Spain, it will only take the lives of maybe two nurses and her dog.

And, of course, not even the slightest political consequence, for the real perpertrators, the "government".

We don't use it when talking to everyone, but with dear close friends.

it IS an "act to curb populations" (by mother nature). she ALWAYS finds a way to limit a species that's out of control. Humans ARE out of control/destroying the Earth, and they keep INSISTING on having more than 1 baby per woman. So mother nature is going to defend herself and put a stop to the virus that is humankind. If ebola doestn't suffice, she'll come up with something many times worse.

If by mother nature you actually mean "corrupt government elites" then I agree with your statement.

There's some kind of border control... but everyone who manage to get to Spain, even illegally is rarely expelled.
In the last years Spains population grew from 37 milllion to 47 million inhabitants, with nearly 0 natural growth.

In Spain there's roughly 1 baby per woman (Spanish woman). But in most of African countries the proportion is 8 baby per woman... Countries like Nigeria grew in a generation from 46 million to 175 million !!!
