Thread Name: BS: Anybody else watching Ebola break out?
Subject: RE: BS: Anybody else watching Ebola break out?
Supreme stupidity or as I call it human nature has always defeated some of our best intentions.

We* did not think through a proper procedure to quarantine or even who would ever clean up exposed linens and furniture. (* the corporate we or the wealthiest we)

As long as Isis seems to be a priority Ebola will not get the attention it deserves.

Beheadings be damned ! Saudi Arabia had several dozen of their own this year, Americans have seen plenty of beheadings. Ghostbuster 2 had 11 beheaded victims on pikes as they entered the subway river of slime. OK but real or not I don't think our leadership is focusing the public on the REAL threat.

The new American    $$$$ conspiracy anti Obama conspiracy theory   $$$$$    is that big pharma has plenty of vaccine and are in fact rife with cures but African markets can't afford the price drug companies want to get. Only after America gets truly desperate will drug companies sell the vaccines at huge profit to the government.
Again this conspiracy theory is whacko. What is true is that Drug companies run with a new drug after the Government has painstakingly developed it such as the new malarial cure. Drug companies do not spend $ on R&D today the way they once did.
