The logic of the people in this Administration is beyond belief, read the following. According to this person trying to calm fears (justified or not) and to protect Americans will discourage health care workers from helping in Africa? 😳
Does the Administration have a clue about people and human nature? Clearly it does not.
These health care workers should be treated with respect and dignity, but at the same time their return must be controlled and uniformly monitored. Why not have them all return via charter flights through one airport and then quarantined in a decent facility where they feel appreciated and not like prisoners? This government sends millions around the world for highly questionable projects and causes, surely there is sufficient money to set up a program to handle these brave volunteers.
Americans are confused largely because of mixed messages coming from the Administration. We are told Ebola is only spread through direct contact with fluids from a person with symptoms. We are told the virus cannot live on surfaces outside the body and yet, when a doctor in New York contracts the disease, they send a team into a bowling alley where he stopped to decontaminate it. I would call that a mixed message‼️
Aides to President Obama are criticizing decisions by three states to quarantine people who are returning from Ebola-stricken West Africa.
Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and United Nations ambassador Samantha Power said quarantines may discourage health workers from traveling to West Africa to help block the disease at its source.
“If you put everyone in one basket, even people who are clearly no threat, then we have the problem of the disincentive of people that we need,” Fauci said on ABC’s This Week. “Let’s not forget the best way to stop this epidemic and protect America is to stop it in Africa, and you can really help stopping it in Africa if we have our people, our heroes, the health care workers, go there and help us to protect America.”
