Sorry but since none of the usual "policy experts" want to touch this with a ten-foot poll, it is shaping up to have some features in common with other civilization-impacting failures of "policy experts" with which this list is all-too familiar:
Early symptoms of Ebola are "flu-like" and it is contagious during these "flu-like" symptoms. Now ... consider the fact that flu season is upon us. But you know what's _really_ frightening about this? Not one of the goddamn idiot "authorities" has even mentioned, let alone assessed, this confounding situation's impact on public health containment measures. Now THAT'S frightening! Read the CDC's guidelines on monitoring and movement of persons with "exposure" <http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/hcp/monitoring-and-movement-of-persons-with-exposure.html>and tell me their guidelines work for a country in the throes of massive incidence of "flu-like symptoms".
