EBOLA!!!!!!!!!!!! 1
There's something fucked up when general hysteria is a daily event here regarding Ebola.
I'm more hysterical about people voting for people who cut funding to health care systems and/or think privatizing everything is a great idea.
Soooo, blame CDC. Blame the nurses and doctors who aren't your fucking selves for scaring you. Blame people in West Africa. Blame the airlines. Blame the multiple nations who stamp passports -- hell, blame the passport stamping people.
Why not find out how many people died in your State today of NOT EBOLA.
