[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Funny, not so long ago it was all about "one, only one" on these boards. Now it's "only two." When do we drop the "only"? When someone actually crokes? I guess wanting to prevent unnecessary deaths is qualified as hysterical now. Sad, kinda.[/quote]

The "two" are from the same incident. What's more notable about that incident is that the other 70 some personnel involved didn't get infected. Nor did Duncan's family who spent two days with him after he had a fever. The obvious conclusion to draw from this is that hysteria is not justified.

I fail to see the "hysteria." You obviously haven't witnessed the real hysteria. Otherwise, you'd rethink your choice of words.

I've fallen on the wrong end of very favorable statistics before. Believe me, it's not fun. If however few people can be helped, they should be helped regardless "the needs of the many."[/quote]

I've fallen the wrong side of stats too. I've had cancer, with no risk factors, and several illnesses peopl my age rarely get. And this has absolutely nothing to do with Ebola. Yes, hysteria. When people start talking about food shortages and panic in the streets, that's hysteria. Just because I had cancer doesn't mean I've become irrational.[/quote]
