The U.S. government will be sending 3,000 troops to West Africa to help build treatment centers and coordinate services in the fight against the Ebola outbreak. President Obama announced the initiative during a visit to the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta Tuesday. The deployment will be done in coordination with the World Health Organization and will be centered in Liberia, where the virus has hit the hardest. The U.S. effort will build 17 treatment centers in that country and will eventually be training 500 healthcare workers a week in patient care and in sanitary procedures to prevent the spread of the virus. America will also be distributing sanitation kits to affected families and, sad part, distributing over 5000 body bags to municipal health authorities. Still, good on us!
"When fighting an enemy, it is normally advisable to use the most effective tools for the task"
While this is exactly correct, the problem here is you're trying to fight trolls, by trying to educate them using facts and logic. As has been proven over and over, this is not at all effective.
Unfortunately their idiocy virus spreads very quickly through the shit-permeable-cranium population and appears to be almost always incurable.
We have no solutions other than nuke-mocking them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Also, we have a handful of cases showing that Ebola isn't a death sentence if the treatment is administered quickly and proactively. If a soldier is exposed to Ebola, a soldier immediately gets treatment, lives.
BUT WHAT IF EBOLA PATIENTS WERE LOADED INTO GIANT SLINGSHOTS LIKE ANGRY BIRDS, AND LAUNCHED AT SOLDIERS?! WHAT THEN OBAMATARDS!?!11
Imagine my surprise upon discovering that "Ebola Zaire" isn't some racist's confused and out-of-date notion of African geography, but an actual technical name for Ebola! Sorry, idiot commenter, but somehow I actually underestimated you! I'm sure it won't happen again.
<i>...Beyond all the paranoid pants-wetting, the thing that really strikes us about all these panicked wingnuts is that, for people who claim to have a huge hard-on for The Troops, they&rsquo;re astonishingly ignorant about what the military actually does....</i> Hey, hey, hey ... here now. They&#039;re just old simpletons. What they really want to do is tell you how things were &quot;back in my day&quot;, but then they need to digress to tell you about having an onion tied on their belt and nowadays they&#039;re getting confused about that too and may go on about using an onion <i>as</i> a belt and it just gets worse. But with this here eeeeee-lectronic mail thing, they can talk to all the other old folks and pass each other repeated copies of <i>The Protocols of the Elders of Zion</i> or whatever nuthatch conspiracy they have uncovered. Dear God am I going to get like this when I become an old?
Yeah, well actually I am pretty much an old. So why am I not sending paranoid nutzo things to folks ... hmmmm .... well I do make the occasional post to Wonkette, so ...
Do you remember who <i>else&#039;s</i> military was toppled by germs? Martians. The fucking president is a <i>Martian</i>. I&#039;m sick of this shit! Inpeach!11!!!!!!
Uh, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but...
