Roger on the Ebola Situation

Roger put up a post on the Ebola topic over at EcoIntersect here.

Some calm observations and useful links about this disease that is now emergent in the U.S.

With first case of ebola in US, important to remmber that GOP cut $600 million in funding from CDC

In their insane, deficit cutting zeal, the GOP cut $600 million in funding from the Centers for Disease Control. Wonderful. Now we have ebola here in the U.S.and by the way, it couldn't have landed in a worse place--Texas--that's because the state, under moron governor Rick Perry, slashed health care funding to the bone. So if ebola has any chance of becoming a full-blown epidemic, it couldn't have found a better place to start.
