Health Care

Obama brings ebola virus to Atlanta.
"There’s no question that the two American Ebola sufferers -- Kent Brantly, a doctor, and Nancy Writebol, a missionary -- deserve the best medical care possible. Working with the private Christian relief organization Samaritan’s Purse, they risked their lives caring for Liberia’s sick and dying Ebola victims, and contracted the virus despite their rigorous application of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommended techniques to limit transmission, including wearing elaborate safety suits. But what these two heroes deserve has to be weighed against the small but catastrophic risk that the virus might spread in the U.S. "
The government doesn't protect from disease. It increases the danger.

More than 100 health workers have been infected with ebola.

African countries isolating infection zone. Europe and Asia try to keep ebola out.

US to start human trials of ebola vaccine.
