About the suspected Ebola case: they want them here because they make a better case for their preferred treatment: hiding like a turtle. Closing borders and saying NO is always the answer. Any scary pseudo-science to argue for that will do. A thing I hear frequently is that the nurse in Maine is a Typhoid Mary. No, she’s not. If you don’t know, Typhoid Mary became famous after two wealthy families got sick and some died where she was the cook, yet she didn’t get sick. A smart man did the contact tracing, and discovered that Mary was the only thing the two households had in common. But she never got sick. She was put under quarantine for years, and tests showed she was the first known “carrier,” someone who wasn’t sick but infected others. There are no Ebola “carriers”. Think about it: it’s too virulent for someone to simply carry. Mary’s gall bladder was full of typhus at her autopsy. Ebola destroys inner organs and the fluids are lethal. So, no carriers would survive. But still, bring up the old social archetype, whether it’s true or not, because it serves the Cause.
