bullshit. It's a sign of wealth...and there are plenty of fat ass, wealthy crooks in that dusty assed continent.

Algerians,though...never seen a fat Algerian. There is that.

Seriously, though, a big problem with the Ebola shit is our protectionist policy stance on damn-near everything and the severe budget cutting Congress has done to the CDC. It has kept us from containing things in Africa. Now, everyone is more afraid of that than the fact that 75% of the world's wildlife has disappeared from the planet since 1970, Louisiana is losing about 50 meters, a day, of land to the Gulf or that California is drier than [insert sexist joke here].

We focus on the wrong things nowadays.

Well...yeah. Let's see, catching a fatal disease or having toothless Cajuns have to move inland.

Well, a fatal disease where you are more likely to be in a fatal car accident than actually catch should be factored in, as well...

The interesting thing about Duncan is, while I don't think racism is the answer, it is quite possible that classism might be. I truly believe that I would not have been 'streeted' after presenting to the ER as he was as a poor immigrant with no insurance. Two days of treatment with something like Ebola can make a world of difference. It is also curious that he did not get the same regime as the successful cases we had treated here in the US.

you think they didn't want hundreds of Ebola people trying to get into the country for life saving treatment?

I think that Dallas officials are just incompetent...

AlabamAlum · Post by **AlabamAlum** » Wed Oct 08, 2014 10:29 pm

I truly believe the ER staff just blew him off. No insurance, no money, struggled with English....<internal monologue>yeah, sick, whatever, just get outta my ER.<\internal monologue> "Mr. Duncan, take some pepto and some ibuprofen and see your primary doctor if not better. Prolly a stomach bug. Going around, ya know. Buy-bye. Feel better!"

I could be wrong but he was reportedly very sick on his first ER visit....and in a previous life I, well...I've seen some things and been a part of things. Just my opinion. Your mileage may vary.

NBC news tonight reported high incidents of cancer among soccer goalies (at least in women) of lymphoma cancer who play on artificial turf that has the shredded car tires as filler.

AlabamAlum · Post by **AlabamAlum** » Wed Oct 08, 2014 10:54 pm

I heard. Right now it's in the 'anecdotal correlation' phase. It's about to get some serious research. And those artificial turfs? Yeah, developed by Monsanto originally.

I'm sure those women were on it alot but they were all under the age of 25.

If that's the cause, its got to be crazy toxic

AlabamAlum · Post by **AlabamAlum** » Thu Oct 09, 2014 12:04 am

Yeah. Need nationwide numbers going back 15-20 years or so. Should be doable to get some hard numbers and rule-out a statistical anomaly.

hope solo's snatch looks like it has lymphoma

you know Im not so judgmental as I used to be. if we did all the things we should be doing for those who cant or wont pay the entire system would go bankrupt.sometimes you have to sacrifice a few for the greater good of the many
but I know most of the time these decisions are made for pure greed

Macro ethics vs micro ethics?

poor people are put in morphine induced comas for end of life versus giving them expensive high risk/low reward drug treatments that might extend their life another few days or weeks.

AlabamAlum · Post by **AlabamAlum** » Thu Oct 09, 2014 10:06 am

I haven't had a lot of that in my 30 or so years in hospitals. I guess it happens, though.
