"A city official told ABC News the home is in a gated community and was donated by a person who wants to remain anonymous. City officials had a hard time finding anyone willing to let the family stay in their home because of health concerns."If I may interject WTF!!!!! People exposed to an incurable, 90% lethal, contagious virus have been moved to a private community instead of a quarantine facility?!! Why didn't the CDC take them into a quarantine hospital? This is life and death - both for the family and for anyone in contact with them. This is not a head cold; it's a full-blown emergency.
"The Obama administration withdrew updated quarantine regulations in 2010, prompting questions about how the policy change may have impacted the current Ebola situation."And, where the obama foot has trod it shall not retrod; our puissant majesty shall not rescind an order He hath given. So America will not stop people from coming, even when there is a grave danger to the public health. Meanwhile, Liberia has announced it will shoot illegal, er, undocumented immigrants on sight. They have also promised to prosecute Duncan for lying to them. Sort of a horse and swinging barn-door situation. WE are the aggrieved party here; why isn't America promising prosecution should this guy live? The fact is, he either will die or get very, very expensive medical treatment gratis. The fact is Liberia and the other affected nations have no good reason to keep someone infected with Ebola from leaving the country and have every reason to wish it. A man like Duncan (who knew he was infected) will only cost Liberia money and threaten to spread the disease further. Better he be shipped off to the U.S., to become America's problem. There are almost 14,000 people holding visas to America in Liberia and other affected countries. If only 1% of visa holders are infected and make it here that would be 140 Ebola patients spreading the disease. Can we catch it all in time to avoid a pandemic? And Duncan should never have been allowed here in the first place; he was living in Ghana, not Liberia, at the time, had family here, was unemployed. These are all red flags for a visa overstay. But the Obama Administration wants settlers - the more non-white, non-European the better. They want to colonize the U.S., and so a man infected with Ebola was welcomed with open arms.
