re: #270 UncleRancher

Eleven (11) cases and we’re in full blown PANIC mode. I say watch what the other hand is doing.

When was the last time there were only eleven cases of ANYTHING in the USA?

Most of the public health system was dismantled by AIDS activists in that perfectly good public health measures were discarded. When an epidemic begins you only have a few days/weeks (incubation time) to rein it in before it becomes uncontrollable.

Might be hearing the line from a Monty Python movie pretty soon “bring out your dead.”
