This is bull$hit posturing, brah. The chances of me getting Ebola are pretty low right now. The chances of me dying, should I get it are pretty high.

However, if it does become a breakout in the United States, the across-the-board disruptions it will cause will be a pain in the arse, alone. Combine the timing of this with a potentially virulent flu strain (they say this almost every year), and the situation could deteriorate very quickly.

The cold has killed more people on our soil than Ebola ever will. How scared of you are of getting the cold?

A patient with Ebola-like symptoms is being treated at Howard University Hospital in Washington, D.C., a hospital spokesperson confirmed late Friday morning.
The patient had traveled to Nigeria recently.


That person has been admitted to the hospital in stable condition, and is being isolated and tested. The medical team is working with the CDC to determine whether the patient has Ebola.

5.

And I live in Dallas.

If it starts spreading, then I will jump up to a 60s number really quickly but I am not going to fear something that is relatively difficult to spread. The R0 for the virus is only 3.

The better question is why the US is even allowing Americans to travel to Africa right now. It should not be allowed as it is more of a national security concern than ISIS, IMO.

another one. do we need to wait until this hits a Phish moshpit?

The Cobb County Jail is no longer accepting inmates after an inmate developed a fever. The man told jail officials that he recently traveled to Africa.

Jail officials confirm to Channel 2's Ross Cavitt that the inmate is being tested for Ebola.
