Heh. I was coming to post about the Ebola Czar. I was also going to post that I've never seen an anything Czar do shit. Czar's are overrated.
Except Peter the Great. Cause like he was great.

I'm all for civil liberties, but any quarantined person should be lucky to be alive and allowed in the country at all. I'd shoot a quarantine violator dead for the sake of public safety, no problem. We're all bending over to get violated in the name of national security concerning the whiff of terrorism, but when something really serious and deadly comes around, whining about inconvenience begins. WTF?Ebola-quarantined U.S. nurse to sue in test of states' policies

What, the state constitution?Good for her. That is some unconstitutional bullshit.

Exactly. Basic of epidemiology. Protect the herd and isolate the individual.
Not sure why someone with her background doesn't seem to undertand that.
Proven? Really? Post 9/11, when travel is under a microscope? Even if we pretend that a successful human shell game can be perpetrated, that requires extra time, money, and effort. That drastically reduces the chances of any sicky conveniently getting over here asymptomatic, or even alive, won't it?Travel bans have been proven to be completely and utterly worthless. If you can't fly from west africa you can fly from east africa, or Europe, or some other place. Not to mention that symptoms don't materialize right away. And you can't often tell a entry level ebola fever from something like a flu fever.
Yep, proven:Proven? Really? Post 9/11, when travel is under a microscope? Even if we pretend that a successful human shell game can be perpetrated, that requires extra time, money, and effort.

Are sick people that determined? Come here from Africa without an airport, and you're clearly not deathly ill. Lie? If you don't have documentation, we don't let you in.Determined people will find ways to cross borders anyway, and if they don't go through airports or they lie about where they came from, health officials can't track their movements.
Yeah, delay so they die there, not here. Exactly!At best, they delay the spread of disease but they don't impact the number of people who eventually get sick.
And this is not how Ebola is spread, so ... irrelevant."The rapidity and extent of HIV spread in any country is primarily determined not by HIV-infected travellers but by the risk-producing activities
And how long does it take for Ebola to kill? Die there, not here.didn't stop the flu; it only delayed it by a couple of weeks and led to a prolonged flu season
All the more reason to enact quarantines!5) Airport screening after SARS didn't catch a single case
Um yeah, wildfire fighting doesn't use ditches, clearcutting, and other containment measures. We need to be able to parachute firefighters into the center of the blaze...The World Bank president Jim Kim used a burning house analogy to describe the problem of closing borders:
Ebola doctor ‘lied’ about NYC travels

This is why we cannot trust the honour system with even health care professionals who we expect to recognize to know the correct thing to do if exposed to a disease.
Meatballs trump professional responsibility.
meatballs have feelings too. ReportedFTFY
Where are her eyebrows?Kaci Hickox remains defiant, vows to break new Ebola quarantine protocol in Maine, take issue to court

I heard people on the radio talking about being Bangable Even with Ebola.Would not hit?
Well it is not a STI. Just make sure no kissing and no bj.
I think the administration is again attempting and failing to be extremely PC. As much respect I have for Drs. Fauci and Frieden, both are acting like politicians rather than true physicians.
It's quite over isn't it? No one is predicting a zombie apocalypse anymore. Even the doctor who decided after treating patients with ebola to go out for dinner after getting off the plane and go to a bowling alley is quite over it.
I am amazed that either they do not seek out the right experts or that expert opinion is downplayed. There has not been much balance between hysteria and reason.
