    More people will die from panicking about Ebola than Ebola.

    Not accurate, but fast.

    Hopefully, you'll be the case that proves us wrong.

    So everyone from an "Ebola infected region" should be banned from traveling? It's your position that the DFW airport should be shut down?

    Amber Vinson had a fever while she was on the plane to/from Akron.

    Not saying Akron is doomed, but it's apparent that the CDC needs to get their shit together, stat.

    Well Sean Hannity said he talked to a Dr who said it could mutate into an airborne virus with zero evidence of such. That's all the proof I need.

    Obviously no! Open borders for all. Per you and all the other Ebola experts, you can give it, but you can't get it.

    Even trolling has rules. Please don't claim I said something I didn't.

    Now you're an expert on trolling? Who knew we had such a celebrity on this site. A medical expert AND a trolling expert.

    No, that would be you. Those who can hang in grownup discussions, do so. Those who can't, troll.

    Superior in all things. How do we keep up with his knowledge?

    You don't. The sad part is your buddy is trolling. You actually believe some of what he said.

    He hasn't really said anything. He's mocking you.

    I can see both sides of the argument, but I am not surprised to see QCB/Gut be smug about this topic, and i am also not surprised to see ted go full retard to make his point.

    The great thing about Ted is that he's consistent with how he goes full retard, since he's doing the exact same thing he did during the World Cup "OMG!!! Soccer is so great guys!!!!"

    Again, there have been dozens of outbreaks in Africa. It isn't wiping out tribes, much less entire cities and countries. It's not airborne. This is a fact. The transmission efficacy is nothing like the flu or common cold. Again, a fact...an empirical fact.

    This. There likely will be more cases of Ebola. It's not going to spread like some epidemic or even the flu. Could end-up being hundreds of cases....still pretty low on the list of things to worry about, behind getting hit by a bus....heck, probably still more likely for your plane to crash then you are to catch Ebola on the plane.

    Ebola in Akron would be considerd a "mercy killing".

    I could see being considered smug on matters of opinion, but not on matters of fact. To what argument are you seeing both sides?

    The first part is correct. The second misses by a mile.

    Don't worry guise, the CDC knows how to stop Ebola. Can't you tell? I mean, look at the guy helping to load the nurse on the plane with no protective gear?

    Newsradio WTAM 1100 &#8207;<s>@</s>wtam1100 <small class="time"> 32s33 seconds ago </small> Ebola infected nurse was allowed to fly commercially by the CDC because her temp was 99.5*F and not considered high risk [100.4*F+].
