Sheffvlad Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Wasn't there another thread on a similar topic? I think that one mentioned that the military personnel could also be medically trained and quoted the numbers of doctors in the US military.

foxy lady Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 It is fairer than sending jets to bomb 'terrorists' that we, as tax payers, were funding no more than 6 months ago. If we don't kerb Ebola now the world is going to roll into a state of panic. Rather like the terrorists then. If we don't eliminate them the world will come to regret that too. For your information we have never funded IS. But of course you knew that but just wanted a tag line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonzo77 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I'm just wondering if it's really fair to send our military personnel to Africa to help with the Ebola crisis. Yes I know they sign up knowing they could be sent to a war zone. But a silent killer like Ebola? I'm not actually sure what I think....it's all a bit disturbing...What do others think? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-29542129 They should have been sent a long time ago too. If they say Ebola is as bad as they're making out, why have we had to wait until it's a threat to white people? Why wasn't aid sent across sooner? It's like we are quite happy watching the Africans suffer......As soon as a westerner is infected......what a pathetic world we live in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only became a threat to white people because white people went to Africa to help, then they wisely carried it back to other white people.

blake Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Nope, They should let nature take it's course and stop interfering. Look at the plague, that reached this tiny islands. it is not a 'tiny little island'. The main island of Britain which contains London and Edinburgh alike, is the 9th largest island in area, in the world. then there is the island of Ireland, very close by. That alone, is 20th in size, out of all the islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost rider Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) I imagine that they will be very careful to make sure the soldiers do not bring it back with them to britain.The scary thing about this virus is the three weeks incubation period.Surely they should not let any of them back until the end of the incubation period after they have been treating patients.Just watching Sky News now and they are reporting cases of ebola in macedonia,france,australia and more cases in the US.A doctor has just been on and says that people who have gone out to help have then panicked when they have thought they have got the symptoms and quite naturally have tried to get on a plane and come home so they can get the best treatment.I cannot begin to imagine the fear and panic you would experience when you think you have contracted a more than likely fatal disease.

Rest of the planet?! You can only contract Ebola via a direct fluid transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
