Don't be so myopic.

Welcome to the third world. And thanks liberals!!!

Liberals are secretly infecting people? Spreading it around the world? Um, sure. It's all their fault.

I hope you understand that you seem paranoid and stupid when you drag politics into this discussion.

Actually , you both sound stupid.

We should blame politicians? What exactly is stupid about what I said?

I don't agree with the reference to liberals. But politicians set our policy. So they are fair game for criticism, e.g., is our policy effective? If not, how should we adjust it? And so on. Knee jerk reactions are never constructive.

If you're feeling Ebola symptoms this week, it doesn't have anything to do with political policies. I promise.

No, that would be linked to govt incompetence and the incompetence of the Dallas response.

It takes a village of medical professionals to treat just one Ebola patient, and the contact tracing is inexact. The Dallas response was inept. I'm reserving judgment about the CDC.

At some point, of course. But it seems like the disease develops over time.

Nope. None.

How many of us here have had a symptom of Ebola in the past 7 days? For those who don't know the Mayo Clinic lists the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, red eyes, raised rash, chest pain, cough, stomach pain, severe weight loss, bleeding from the eyes, nose, mouth, rectum or other orifices, bruising, chills, weakness.

I woke up this morning with a headache and vomiting, which for me are signs that a migraine number is on it's way. Luckily the meds worked today. I also had a touch of diarrhea earlier in the week, not uncommon for me when my period starts. I guess, come to think of it I also 'bled from an orifice".

DC #1 had headache and fever on Tuesday, his doctor diagnosed ear and sinus infection secondary to allergies and put him on antibiotics. He's also had lots of coughing, probably asthma from the allergies and post nasal drip.

DC #2's had red eyes, and a couple nosebleeds over the course of the week. Both are par for the course for him during allergy season.

My point is this: the early symptoms are super common. It's no surprise that people on the "exposed" list are showing some signs, or that so many of the people tested in this country are coming up negative. I have zero reason to think that any of my family has Ebola, but if it happened that we'd just come from Liberia, we'd be in isolation right now. It's also not surprising to me that Duncan believed the ER doctor who misdiagnosed him. If he was a normal human being, he undoubtedly had had the same symptoms many times previously.

So, is my family weird, or has your family had Ebola symptoms this week too?
