Believe in Ebola Lies,

Dr. David Lakey, the Commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health, said he was confident it would be contained: "This is not West Africa. This is a very sophisticated city. . . . . .it won't spread in the US because of its far superior medical infrastructure to that of West African nations. . . http://www.businessinsider.com/ebola-in-us-will-be-contained-texas-2014-10#ixzz3HTcbYaPm

Slippery slope, ad hominem fallacies : Ebola must be a political virus ! “Those Ebola Vaccines in Testing Now? You Can Thank Dick Cheney for That” http://dailysignal.com/2014/11/03/bioshield-obama-diverted-funds-from-its-fight-against-ebola-other-threats/ "If someone has Ebola at a cocktail party, they're contagious and you can catch it from them. -- Sen. Rand Paul, a physician and potential 2016 presidential candidate "Reports of illegal migrants carrying deadly diseases such as swine flu, dengue fever, Ebola virus and tuberculosis are particularly concerning." -- Georgia Rep. Phil Gingrey, a medical doctor, wrote to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Stewart contrasted 1603 Ebola deaths in W Stewart contrasted 1603 Ebola deaths in W. Africa (2014) with 600,000 annual deaths from heart disease in US false analogy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QIWZ7HxuHc (mark 1.09 then to 2.35) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNhnZZw38Og (1.09 – then 2.35)

Ebola.com was For Sale: “The deal for Ebola.com included a mix of cash and stocks, specifically $150,000 in Cannabis Sativa, Inc. The CEO of that company is none other than former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson . . . who in a recent Fox interview suggested that marijuana might -- just might! -- hold a cure for Ebola.” http://blog.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2014/10/27/parasitic_capitalism_round_2_ebolacom_sold_for_200000 “ Western countries should tackle drugs firms’ ‘scandalous’ reluctance to invest in research into the virus . . . the UK’s top public doctor said, adding, ‘They’d find a cure if Ebola came to London.’ ” http://rt.com/news/177656-ebola-vaccine-treatment-africa/ “This last Saturday marked another troubling milestone in the spread of Ebola in West Africa. According to the CDC, the total number of cases has now eclipsed 10,000 (5,692 are laboratory confirmed) . . . the exponential nature of this deadly outbreak.” http://www.forbes.com/sites/danmunro/2014/10/27/the-ebola-crisis-in-3-charts-and-3-articles/ ( science writer) …but Forbes also published: “America Is Beating Ebola: Every Patient Taken To An Elite U.S. Facility Has Survived.”
