Do you believe that shutting flights down from ebola stricken countries would keep America safe?
Every major nation, even those in africa has shut down their borders and stopped the flights from possible incoming ebola infectees. Has America? No, we still have borders open and flights coming in from ebola stricken communities! I for one believe just screening for a fever is extremely less effective. It could just be me, I'm not sure of anything these days!
First of all it's recently discovered that america owns patent on ebola virus which in other words mean, ebola is an artificially created virus.. hence i don't think stopping flights will help in anyway, i don't think it would ever hit Americans, plus ebola epidemic is at the verge of extinction, so no worries...
No, but I do believe the media just earned a few more points for scaring the hell out of "Joe 6-Pack" yet again and causing hysteria for no reason. Flights being shut down is a political move as a result of so much public and media backlash and panic stirred up by the lazy and sensational media. This country is far beyond madness. I'd stop watching the news and focus on other things--like life.

The CDC is quick to say we should not worry, and the chances of it being spread on the airplane trip here isn't likely. After seeing how much it spread in other places,...

Do you think the US should spend billions on Ebola? Why or why not?More people die of the flu each year, there is one active case in the US and the cases in Africa are now beginning to decline with increased awareness and education about how to stop the spread.
