Stasi: Coincidence That The Tea Party And The Less Educated Fear Ebola The Most?

Posted by | October 12, 2014 15:16 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


Linda Stasi addresses the ignorance in the New York Daily News.

According to a new national poll, the more educated you are, the less you fear an Ebola outbreak in a major U.S. city, while the less educated, the greater the fear.

Well that’s what the latest Reason-Rupe national poll shows anyway, along with the fact that Tea Partiers fear the coming Ebola apocalypse more than Democrats and Republicans. Interesting…

But what are the real facts about Ebola now that it has slipped out of West Africa?

I spoke with Dr. Joia Mukherjee, chief medical officer for Partners in Health, the international medical charity based in Boston, who has just returned from Liberia.

She advises that the first thing that needs to be done to stop the disease from crossing borders is to stop criminalizing people with the disease.

Fear of prosecution will, she says, drive it further underground, causing fewer people to come forward as early as they need to…

PIH is trying to work out deliveries of disease-prevention buckets to each family with essentials like rubber gloves and aprons, disinfectant, soap and water.

Enter the U.S. and the U.K. While the President is taking heat for the bombings, nobody’s hailing the fact that he also committed not just millions in aid, but military personnel to help build roads, structures and beds, as well as getting aid workers what they need where they need it.

    How can ebola be no big deal and at the same time be a disaster of epic proportions because of budget cuts?
