I remember weeks ago when people like rollerjag were making light of the ebola scare on here and acting like it was so hard to contract, "its not airborne", and that the one's concerned about it coming over here were overreacting....

 

I remember specifically being one that pointed out that there was a lot we probably didn't know about the disease and to take such a laissez-faire attitude about it was foolish. Many piggy backed rollerjags stance implying that it would never be an issue over here as were not a 3rd world country/ we've got better facilities/ blah blah blah....

 

Welp, the WHO now estimates that the amount of new cases is anticipated to climb to 10,000 per week soon, almost double than it was previously, and the first person has now contracted it on our own soil. Not only that but they have upped the death rate to 70% from 50%. 

 

Still blowing off the threat, now??

 

The stick the head in the sand group is no better than the hypochondriac group the way I see it.
