That doesn't make sense if there's no known cure.  Why tempt fate?

Ask the so-called "bug chasers" deliberately getting infected with HIV. Evidently if you hate yourself enough, a gift like that is just perfect for everyone you're with after you catch it.

Imo, what really is at play is the 'egoes' of some in medicine who believe that the 'risk-reward' factor is worth taking if it helps to find an effective treatment for the victims of Ebola.

Let's see...  the body of Mr. Sawyer, a black man, is 'unavailable' to be shipped back Stateside so his family can arrange a memorial-service, but a white guy is being flown back even though there's no known cure.

Where's the lib outrage?

Is there some reason they can't treat him in Africa? Or is this just one of those: "My college is cooler than your college" things?
BTW, isn't CDC supposed to stop this kind of thing? Once upon a time, there was such a thing as quarantine. Are they assuming that if we spread this plague to the US population, we'll drop every thing else and devote all our resources to curing it? If so, I suggest this plane should go down over the Atlantic.  :mad:
