A completely inappropriate part of the article in light of the history of forced cannibalism in the civil war in Sierra Leone...I am so disgusted with this article.

I agree with everything you're saying here. But bear in mind, that while other less rare diseases kill more, Ebola brings a lot of unique difficulties, the psychological stress of such an unknown, incurable disease is very traumatic, not to mention the economic destruction being wrought, far beyond the usual…

Right. Because this is a joke. Good times.

1. Can you image how terrifying it would be to be told (when you are displaying symptoms associated with a perfectly treatable disease) that you need to go to a hospital and be treated in complete isolation and you'll probably die anyway? I can totally understand why people are freaking out and refusing treatment.

This has to be one of the most insensitive articles I have ever seen published on this site and I can't express enough how disappointed and sick this makes me.
