Why would “Think Ebola” be appropriate for Health Care Facilities Nation Wide, but not for the General Public?
So, in other words, if you work in a hospital you should be thinking about Ebola.
And if you don’t work in a hospital… no worries. You’ll be fine as long as you don’t think about Ebola.
If there has ever been an illustration of how Government cannot handle a crisis, this is it.
And I haven’t started on a very real Killer which is approaching epidemic levels called the Enterovirus D68. It’s here and it’s already killed 6… 4 of which were young children.
You must ask “Why?”.
I offer that ramping up the level of concern being experienced by the American Public will lead to obvious questions the current Administration and Political Party in Charge do not want asked.
Such as:
Why have we not secured the borders and continue to allow medically unscreened illegal immigrants into the United States and then fly them where ever they wish while placing the children into public schools across the nation?
Or,
Why have we not simply stopped incoming flights from West Africa?
Or,
Do you think the Terrorist’s are watching this?
And then come the profoundly enlightening if not horribly uncomfortable answers:
The Democrat Party refuses to secure the borders because the future of Socialism in America depends on a brand new class of taxpayer-funded welfare addicts who will always vote for them… damn the health consequences.
The Administration does not want to do anything which could be positioned as ‘racist’, which stopping those who are traveling from West Africa might imply. But the most obvious result of stopping those flights would be to lead all of us immediately back to the first question regarding our borders, and that cannot be allowed to happen… damn the health consequences.
And, of course the Terrorists are watching… and learning. We are doing nothing because it’s not in the best interest of those who want to control us.
Damn all of the Consequences.

I’ve just finished my ebola training, Mike. Like every other training, it consists of…don’t forget to wash your hands. I’m really pleased with all the things my government has taught me, stop, drop, and roll, wash your hands, and also of course, kiss your behind goodbye because your Gov is too incompetent to protect you from just about anything life dishes out.
One a more cheery note, there’s an African nurse in Africa who risked her life, armed with nothing but garbage bags and some saran wrap, and managed to nurse some loved ones back to health without getting sick herself. No doctors, no medicine, no support from her own Gov or ours, just love. I have to try and remember things like this, because if I focused too much on the brilliance of government, I’d lose my marbles.
