Pentagon Builds Units To Transport Ebola Patients

First time accepted submitter halfquibble52 writes As more U.S. troops head to West Africa, the Pentagon is developing portable isolation units that can carry up to 12 Ebola patients for transport on military planes. The Pentagon says it does not expect it will need the units for 3,000 U.S. troops heading to the region to combat the virus because military personnel will not be treating Ebola patients directly. Instead, the troops are focusing on building clinics, training personnel and testing patient blood samples for Ebola.

The more restrictive the quarantine rule is, the less likely someone will report symptoms.

So you're saying that people are so egotistical and self-centered that they don't care about anyone but themselves. Strange how not even 50 years ago we had mandatory quarantines and they worked. Sounds like to me we have a more serious problem then just "people not wanting to report symptoms" they're just hell bent on damning everyone else.
