Super-Genius Barack Obama: We’ll Keep Ebola Out Of America By Letting West Africans In
“I don’t have a philosophical objection necessarily to a travel ban, if that is the thing that is going to keep the American people safe,” President Obama said on Thursday.
Obama said the experts have advised him that it’s more effective to let West Africans into the U.S. than it would be to keep them out.
“The problem is that in all the discussions I’ve had thus far with experts in the field, experts in infectious disease, is that a travel ban is less effective than the measures that we are currently instituting, that involve screening passengers who are coming from West Africa.”
Obama said it’s important to continue screening West Africans before they get on planes and then after they arrive in the U.S. to see if they’re showing signs of disease. Sick people should get medical evaluations, he said. And people who are not sick should list their contact information.
And yet, remember, this from yesterday:
NPR, July, 2014: The Only Solution To Ebola Is Total Containment
Just to be clear, I'm not saying NPR are more expert than the head of the CDC. What I'm saying is the healthcare workers depicted in the NPR article show, by their actions, that absolute containment is the only thing that works. They even contain people SUSPECTED of having Ebola. They don't allow them to travel. They quarantine them absolutely.
And yet, now that it Ebola is a problem in the US, suddenly absolute containment is not the answer?!?
It's almost as if the Obama Administration is more concerned with the political fallout of Ebola than they are with the health of the American people.

When surviving Ebola becomes a nightmare When Jerald Dennis left the Ebola treatment center after surviving the deadly virus that has claimed the lives of more than 2,000 of his fellow Liberians, he thought the worst was over.
He was wrong.
Dennis, a 30-year-old non-medical worker at John F. Kennedy Medical Hospital (JFK), Liberia's largest referral hospital, fell prey to the Ebola virus in early September.
"I probably contracted the virus through indirect contact, because you can get it through direct or indirect contact," he told Anadolu Agency in an interview in his home in Monrovia's Matadi district.
Dennis recalled how he began feeling burns on his hands before things became worse, as he experienced severe pain in his head and other parts of his body, later suffering from diarrhea and vomiting as well.Why Phillipines WONT'T send medics to Ebola-hit areas MANILA - The Philippines has rebuffed a US request to dispatch medical workers to Ebola-hit regions, with the health ministry saying boosting the country's defenses against any local outbreaks was the priority.
