To All the A**holes who are Insulting the Flying Ebola Nurse: Shut Your F***ing Faces.

[greatlaurel]

252. Good post, this brave young woman put her life on the line and was let down by her employers.

In addition, the GOP has steadily cut funding to the CDC and NIH for more than a decade. The right wing creeps have been instrumental in preventing an Ebola vaccine from being available already. Thank you, Grover Norquist and the other GOP quislings.

I know of 3 universities here in Ohio where funding for biomedical research grants have been slashed and vital research has been stopped. Elections have consequences and by voting for the GOP or not voting at all, people are dying from diseases that could be treated if only the funding to create and complete the needed research.

One small quibble about Mr. Duncan. Even with the Ebola outbreak in full swing in Liberia, people are still coming down with the same old diseases like malaria. The poor young woman he helped may have been easily assumed to have malaria. Malaria has not stopped its ravages in these countries just because Ebola has added to the misery in West Africa. I did read (but cannot find the link, will add later if I find it) that her Ebola diagnosis did not occur until after her tragic death.

All the victims of this dread disease deserve our deepest sympathy.

Well said, sir, well said. Thank you.
