President Barack Obama, Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, and Secretary of State John Kerry are directly responsible for allowing Ebola into the United States, the Center for Immigration Studies Director of Policy Studies Jessica Vaughan told Breitbart News.

The problem is Liberia operates their exit questionnaire on the honor system.
Media reports have questioned the accuracy of its factual assertions and its claim to nonpartisanship and noted its ties to extremist groups
Because professing a belief in small government, and then blaming the government for every single little thing, are completely compatible behaviors.

It's logically consistent. If I believe that government is behind every single bad thing that happens, I'm going to want to make them as small and powerless as possible to limit the amount of damage they can do. Sure, it might be baseless paranoia driving the pursuit of that goal, but it's not wildly illogical.
LAURIE GARRETT: And we either find a way to mobilize on a scale unprecedented in modern time for epidemic response, or we will be looking at something like a quarter-million cases by Christmas.
AMY GOODMAN: What would that mobilization look like?
LAURIE GARRETT: Well, look, a hell of a lot more than what were doing. I mean, first of all, lets back up. You know, supposedly, the United States military is building a 25-bed hospital in Monrovia for the care of infected healthcare workers. Supposedly, the British government is building a 68-bed hospital in Freetown, Sierra Leone, for care of healthcare workers and the acutely infected. Supposedly, France is sending 40 peoplewere not even sure what exact skill set they have. But all of this, I say "supposedly," because a commitment on paper does not equal rapid action. I was at the Department of Defense last week, and it turns out, to mobilize a 25-bed facilityby the way, unstaffed; theyre not going to staff it, but theyll be there, there will be bedsthat takes 50 daysfive-oh. So well be well into October before that facility is even there. And as fast as hospital beds are being erected, whether its just a cot in a tent or what it may be, theyre overfull, and theyre turning people away outside. So, the nature of the response is so far behind the virus, so far behind the scale of need, that its almost impossible to quantify how we really do need to respond.
NERMEEN SHAIKH: And one of your recent pieces, in fact, is called "We Could Have Stopped This." So, could you explain what you say in that piece?
LAURIE GARRETT: Back, back, if we had had a response that was to scale in March, April, May, June, as this was growing and spreading and festering, but largely remained a rural epidemic in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, MSF, the Doctors Without Borders organization, and a handful of other nongovernmental responders were having a decent capacity to handle the caseload. What wasnt going on was the local governments doing the case contacting, meaning identifyyou have a person here in the hospital bed. Lets find all their family members and test them. Lets see where they were in prior days, who might have been exposed, and lets get these people in quarantine and observe them, test them and make sure they dont spread it. Nobody was doing that.
NERMEEN SHAIKH: And that didnt happen because in these places they didnt have the capacity? Or are you suggesting
LAURIE GARRETT: They didnt have capacity, and the international response was zippo. WHO was like, "Zzzz, excuse me, wait. Did somebody say theres an epidemic? Uh, because were really busy over here, you know, talking about how to normalize care of heart disease."
President Ebola doesn't care about public safety or health. Maybe he will when his golf caddy starts barfing Ebola guts all over the green.
Over the past 31 years the average yearly flu related deaths in the United States averaged just over 23,000/year.
Over the past 10 years the average is almost 33,000 deaths.
http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/201...rage-fluctuates-depending-on-how-you-slice-it
Over the past year (when the latest outbreak started) it's estimated that there have been approx. 3500 deaths from Ebola in the countries experiencing the outbreak with a total of around 7500 identified cases.

Oh, what to worry about, what to worry about?
