Has anyone else seen this? I am not sure if this has been posted already. This sounds like the most foolish and empty headed decision in the world!

I have very little faith in the CDC to maintain control and containment of anything given their track record of "misplacing" vials of small pox and exposing workers to anthrax, etc. I guess at least we dont have to wonder any longer when it will reach our shores.

Brilliant, just brilliant!

The ONLY way to contain this is to CONTAIN THE BORDERS!

Doctors Without Borders said its teams are overwhelmed with new Ebola patients in Sierra Leone and that the situation in Liberia is now "dire."
