This Could Be the Worst Ebola Outbreak in History

This Could Be the Worst Ebola Outbreak in History
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The current situation in eastern Congo and Uganda combines some of the most dangerous aspects of the 2014 and 2018 outbreaks — the worst Ebola outbreaks in history. The virus was already spreading for several months before it was detected in May, and there are no approved vaccines or treatments for this particular form.
As bad as this situation is, we have a playbook for addressing such crises. But it requires a huge team effort — and this time, the United States has undermined its ability to help by shuttering U.S.A.I.D., cutting staff at C.D.C. and withdrawing from the W.H.O. Thousands of people could pay the ultimate price for that recklessness.

For sure, I thought this was going to say that climate change invigorated the Ebola organisms into people’s bodies faster.
But either way, Obama and Biden would be letting them in through airport terminals to this country right now. Kamala too.

OR....the country could handle its own shite and not count on us for everything to do with their wellbeing

Maybe they can use all their fraud money to fix this problem? Instead of stealing billions and buying Lamborghinis?

The USA isn't the world's piggy bank anymore. Other nations need to step up.

This article was written by someone who was most likely paid with USAID funding. I remember seeing where early on DOGE discovered a lot of USAID money going to prop up liberal media outlets.

Long as they keep that shite there... I'm sorry for them but please don't start flying it around the world.

Cutting all USAID is like chemo for cancer.
You end up hurting a few things you’d rather not but not treating the cancer would be far worse.

Just quarantine them until they die. This will not become a pandemic like the media hopes it will.

Let the people who stole all the USAID money go and fund it.
I'm tapped out.
Don't care.
I'm tired of being a cuck.

The purpose of the world health organizations and the health non-profits we used to have set up was to keep the outbreaks local before they spread across the world to the US.

That last part of the OP gave me a strange sense of pride and joy. And hope for our country.
I don't know if that's proper, or if I'm even supposed to be proud of it. But that's how I felt reading that.

Until one of the doctors or others are exposed then flown about the globe for treatment.
You know what would keep it local? Barricades and air dropped supplies.
