Ebola, news and discussion

Rockinonahigh · 10-12-2014, 08:36 PM

I carry plenty of hand wipes with me when I am out,many public bathrooms don't have soap or anything else to wash hands with so bringing my own is the best way to keep germs at bay.I no longer shake hands,all my friends agreed on fist bumps or elbow bumps of some sort,people I just meet I just say hello glad to meet ya..if they offer a hand shake I tell them why I would rather not.Yeah,I get some funny looks but I feel better this way.
I agree we should restrict people from countries with Ebola or any other disease from coming hear till it's sure they aren't carrying some bug,plus our people shouldn't be going to places that have a problem as well.I know it puts a cramp in travel plans but safety first will save a lot of of people from being sick.I live three hours from Dallas,where our airport isn't a major hub it dose get people from a lot of places,I would hate to see that mess started hear.My fear is people not telling about where they have been or of they have been around anyone with a communicable disease,if they don't tell the truth Instant quarentean (?) for as long as nessarry(? again,not in my dictionary either).I know that's harsh but if you have, to do it.

H E L L O you were suppose to be in quarantine!!!

I don't know what I'm more disgusted with, her careless disregard OR the lame lame apology, if you can even call it that, once she was busted!

The idiot factor is as always the unknown piece of the puzzle. Sick people who don't get care (we are a society that goes to work sick) and people who think the rules don't apply to them...these will be contributing factors to the spread, even if the hospitals are prepared for the influx of patients.
