    And yet Medecins sans Frontiere who work in Sierra Leone, Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria are not infected with the Virus

    Well, no.

    So far it appears that 16 MSF workers have been contaminated, of whom 9 have died.

    Nigeria stopped Ebola? Waayyyy premature to say such a thing. This pandemic is only at the beginning of the "hockey stick" vertical rise.

    No, in Nigera. Learn to read.

    On the first positive test for ebola, a quick humane administered death and incineration is the only thing that'll stop this thing now. The math says there are at least fifty infected traveling around the country right this minute

    The math says that you are a hysterical fuckwit.

    I'd advise you to seal yourself in your basement. Make sure to close all the airgaps. A generator might come in handy for the inevitable loss of electricty.
