Elon and the Grifter decimated USAID, and now there is a break out of the Ebola Virus. The surveillance usually provided by the presence of health and humanitarian agencies is missing. There is a shortage of staff and supplies. This is bad! This could become significantly worse. Ebola is spreading like wildfire. Now what!?
Fuck you Elon and DJT!!!

The billionaires believe every resource in the world belongs to them.
And they are not going to share.

If this strain of ebola makes it to the West the death rate will be way more expensive in money and lives than prevention would have been. Some day, in some outbreak, it will hit Mar A Lago. It surfaces a few times a year in a few places, and evolves in Africa as it is. Take away health resources and you will pay in the end. And a travel ban like the one the US put up already won't stop the spread. It will only slow it down for a time.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
