Liberia to Prosecute Man Who Brought Ebola to US

[freshwest]

23. Denial is not just a river in Egypt as the song goes. Tempting fate is common. That's why the GOP

shouldn't have slashed Obama's package for dealing with Ebola in half. And I didn't say he shouldnt be charged by Liberia, but if he dies, and he may, it's a moot point, isn't it?

Nothing will bring him back to life, nor anyone that he infected who may or may not survive.

There is also a case of a woman in the hospital in NYC and another woman in London, who may not have touched someone as sick as the woman in the taxi was. I'll bet there are more than them, too, as another story says they suspect it in Utah, too.

I won't scapegoat this guy for a disease. I refuse to hate this guy, he is not 'Ground Zero' for Ebola in the USA, and nothing changes what happened in NYC, London or Emory where the aid workers with Ebola were treated.

Note, they survived the disease. Part of the reason there is hope for a cure is that not all people die from it and their blood is used as a source of anti-bodies to treat others with the disease.

This guy is not the be all and end all of Ebola, no more than gays, who at one time were maligned over AIDS, to the point of people wanting them to be quarantined in camps or even killed, as some wanted to shoot the kids crossing the border from Mexico.

The enemy is not people, it's the disease and the ignorance. Stating that I think Denial is a large part of the problem, is NOT the same as my condoning what he did.

If he dies and cannot be brought to trial for this, where will the outrage be directed next?
