It was scary enough when Thomas Duncan came from Liberia with ebola. But now that he passed away and left his caretaker, nurse Nina Pham, with the virus, people are really starting to freak out. Doctors and professionals are left even more confused because this nurse went beyond the norm to protect herself from the possible contraction of the virus and she still got it anyways. Tom Frieden, a member of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), is not casting blame at anyone, for they themselves are still trying to figure out how she would get sick, but more importantly, how the virus spreads.
I think that right now as a country, American should be sending as much aid and providing as much resources needed to stop and find a cure for ebola, especially since not many people have been infected. We definitely do not want this to be a repeat of history like the Native Americans with smallpox or the Europeans with the Black Plague. Why wait until the last minute to stop this when we can prevent it from us and our younger generations from getting it?
