Obama Battles Political Fallout of Ebola

October 17, 2014 4:06 PM
WHITE HOUSE— President Barack Obama is working not only to stop the spread of Ebola in the United States, but to contain the political damage that fear of the disease could inflict on his Democratic Party.
Fears of Ebola have become a factor as Americans prepare to go to the polls next month in Congressional elections that could see Democrats losing control of the Senate.

One person has died of Ebola on U.S. soil, a Liberian visitor. Two nurses who came in contact with him are sick. The number is miniscule when compared to the more than 4,000 people who have died of the disease in West Africa.

Well yeah...

I mean why else would you hire a political hack as your "Ebola czar"? It's not a medical problem to them, it's a political problem.

Chris Christie Stuck Her In 'Prison,' So Ebola Nurse Kaci Hickox Says She'll Sue

Forbes

- ‎15 minutes ago‎

Kaci Hickox treated Ebola patients in West Africa. She’s a hero.
Since she got home to America, she’s been treated like a criminal.
Hickox is a nurse who specializes in infectious disease, and the first American to be isolated under New Jersey’s new 21-day quarantine on Ebola aid workers. She worked for Doctors Without Borders — the aid group fighting West Africa’s Ebola epidemic — before flying home on Friday and being rushed into a surprise isolation that she’s described as scary, disorganized, and even cruel.
