If a post is made be for the change it holds the change, due to the form using a word script system and not a link based system.

Didn't someone post earlier that 22 nurses were infected at John F. Kennedy Hospital? If that is the case then it is already in the states and it is only a matter of time.


Yeah when I was reading a report earlier I was like whoa 'JFK Hospital' what? Its got to the US? But then I thought na, there must be a facility in Liberia named JFK and I was right.

Why is there a Hospital/Facility Named 'JFK' in Liberia?

Because Liberia was founded as a dumping ground for "freed slaves", from the US. Liberia has close ties to the US because of this and much of its survival is due to the US providing them some aid.

I would assume much of the public infrastructure is named after Americans due to this.

Liberia is a creation of the United States. That is not a figurative statement but a literal one. The US was behind the creation of Liberia as a place to repatriate blacks from the Americas who had arrived in slavery. I'm not surprised it has institutions and other close cultural ties to America.


Founding of Liberia, 1847

The founding of Liberia in the early 1800s was motivated by the domestic politics of slavery and race in the United States as well as by U.S. foreign policy interests. In 1816, a group of white Americans founded the American Colonization Society (ACS) to deal with the “problem” of the growing number of free blacks in the United States by resettling them in Africa. The resulting state of Liberia would become the second (after Haiti) black republic in the world at that time.

I'm not sure about that. Our local news is reporting that the family lives here in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

The Church they keep showing is in my response area. I'll be sure to report any sick calls with bleeding eye's we make. Ebola has always sent chills down my spine. It reminds me of Stephan Kings "The Stand", my personal favorite. Captain trips has been set free, which started in Texas in the book!

this is TERRIFYING. And Indiana AGAIN???? I live there in Princeton. Few months ago someone flew home to Indiana with some scary odd sickness from Africa. can't remember if it was that chicken disease or another thing. Chikengunya? Now maybe Ebola. WHO hates Indiana so much? seriously I'm shaking I'm so terrified. ready to cry.

Thanks for the replies to my question up above. I guess I could have checked out on the net myself but was too lazy to do so.

Anyways, I hope that none of this Docs family contracted it and carried it on the plane.

Ebola is not an airborne virus though, like the Chikungunya (edit, chikungunya is spread by mosquitoes but you get my point) Ebola needs 'prolonged' contact to spread through sweat, blood or saliva so don't worry so much. There have been cases of people travelling on planes and no-one else was infected.

Also just because the article doesn't mention it, doesn't mean the family haven't been traced , tested or quarantined.
