We all know that the Ebola outbreak has caused a lot of concern and national attention and now Obama is doing even more to try and prevent this disease from spreading even more. Recently, there has been discussion on the fact of airport screening. The US has been questioning fliers coming out of African countries where the ebola outbreak has been and they are thinking now to start taking passengers' temperatures going to and departing to Africa in hopes of the Ebola outbreak to settle. Obama claims that the chances of ebola majorly spreading in the United States is very slim, but this disease is new to our nation and must be handled with precaution.
The breakout of Ebola is major news. It shows how the whole globe is connected. This can be related to the columbian exchange. It really shows how diseases can be spread just like they were earlier in our history. We repeat our history and I pray for the well being of our nation that we can conquer this issue and obtain more knowledge than we have know before.

I'm glad that we are taking precautionary measures. The new screenings seem smart because we'd rather be safe than sorry.
ReplyDeleteI just hope that screening actually works. If you look at what Mr. Duncan did by lying to African airport officials, you can only wonder if the same thing will happen.
ReplyDeleteIf this screening were to be able to do what this article claims, then officials should be able to spot Ebola cases all across the world. Because of the massive scare in America, it seems that the whole world is becoming more and more aware of this disease and what it can do .
