Re: Ebola YUCKY
I live in Dallas and I see a lot of mixed opinions here. I've been told the hospitals are full of hypochondriacs thinking they have it - only it's 99.999% more likely they have the flu or a cold or something. We only have one confirmed case and I'm thinking it's likely to stay that way.

Re: Ebola YUCKY
ROFL about hypochondriaces!!!! It's not a great thing in my opinion. I don't understand when they say it's hard to catch and only able to with direct contact with body fluids. Is everyone in Africa sucking each others tongues? I don't get it. I'm very concerned about it myself. I really hope u're right and it stays at one. And sorry you live in Dallas lol. I don't like TX; too hot for me. It's a different type of hot than Missouri or Arkansas.kaos78414 wrote:I live in Dallas and I see a lot of mixed opinions here.

Well Africa is a whole 'nother world over there. I watch a documentary on AIDS and in Africa they just don't care. A lot of the people knowingly spread the virus and just shrug there shoulders so it doesn't surprise meEpiales wrote:ROFL about hypochondriaces!!!! It's not a great thing in my opinion.

Re: Ebola YUCKY
Has alot to do to with water contamination. People pooping/bathing in the river upstream, people drinking downstream. If it hits India, it could really do damage.

Rather than shrug their shoulders, I think they are just human and make up some superstition that they are ok.KyleMassacre wrote:Well Africa is a whole 'nother world over there.

All STD's rely on the host thinking they are ok or are immune to it. Or thinking this only ever happens to people in other countries.

Well, I think History will repeat itself in many ways. The Spanish Flu was pretty bad in its time, and it's innevitable that something like that will happen again. I just hope it's not Ebola. Nasty killer it is.

Re: Ebola YUCKY
I need to get the name of the documentary so people interested can see but it was well over 5 years ago but some of the people they were talking to and interviewing flat out said they knew they have it and don't care if they give to other people. It was pretty disgustingCallan S. wrote:Rather than shrug their shoulders, I think they are just human and make up some superstition that they are ok.KyleMassacre wrote:Well Africa is a whole 'nother world over there.
