I with Patrick.net had the ability for a moderator, to close a thread. This one has become unwieldy and useless.

"While you dorks worry about Federal Reserve or the price of milk...."

I think you've got that backwards!

Only in America, send a clean-up crew in to mop up high contagious Ebola vomit, give them a power washer so they can blow it all over the place. Oh, and don't give them any personal protection equipment....

But, some people here feel that the authorities have everything under control and there is no chance of it spreading...

Sure.....

Happy 2 year anniversary to the ebola powerwash hysteria, brought to us by our resident dipshit, CIC!!!

This ancient dweller in the blood never ceases to amaze.

Those reports of plagues being released by the perma frost melting in Siberia have been fascinating too. For our sake, I hope humans don't come into any more contact with super primitive diseases. As we tread over parts of the Earth we haven't been, or as parts of the Earth become re-exposed to potential human contact, things tend to not go very well for us in the infectious diseases department.

I'm sure the Trump administration will "win" if there was a flare up too. (gulp) They would be very willing to look at what Obama did, a massive success for the West African ebola response, and learn from that right? I mean, they wouldn't use a crisis of that type to stoke xenophobic fear and nationalism right?
