truman Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 It's not out of control. It's infected thousands (which isn't a lot in the grand scale of things) and it's difficult to spread, similar to the AIDS virus I think. ---------- Post added 08-10-2014 at 19:48 ---------- ????? It doesn't appear to be under control here.. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-08-06/ebola-deaths-go-exponential-nigeria-demands-experimental-drug-us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barleycorn Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 They now think the Spanish nurse caught it from her glove, much like people catch a cold, someone with Ebola sneezes onto a door handle, someone else touches the door handle then they eat a sandwich and they catch Ebola. You seem to be forgetting that once someone is capable of spreading the disease they are also far too ill to go around sneezing on door handles. jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonJeremy Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Lets hope the drugs companies come up with a marketable drug from which they can make money and want to produce in large quantities to protect us all from this awful disease. Obviously there's no commercial reason to do it for poor people there's no incentive for shareholders and executives but the potential global spread may push them into action. even if it hasn't been tested properly. Come on Pfizer, come on astra z, come on welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that it isn't an easy tax no matter how much money they throw at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it took a long time, aids also doesn't kill its victims a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
