Could be worse, they could have rabies.

If you read your own article (a good article BTW) you probably wouldn't be asking silly and irrelevant questions like the above.

Speaking at a press conference in Johannesburg Tuesday, the head of Doctors Without Borders in South Africa Sharon Ekambaram said medical workers have received inadequate assistance from the international community.

"Where is WHO Africa? Where is the African Union?" said Ekambaram who worked in Sierra Leone from August to September. "We've all heard their promises in the media but have seen very little on the ground."

"To manage Ebola is not rocket science. It's very basic infection control and very basic protection of staff," said Pederson who said clean water, chlorine and soap were enough to disinfect an affected area.

But 'silly and irrelevant' is UBs trademark.

How is what I posted "silly and irrelevant"? Or is this childish demonization simply because you have a different point of view?

You were not demonized. They said you are silly and irrelevant, not evil and wicked.

If English were my first language I'd say 'Oh snap!'. Since it isn't, I won't.

Waiting for the "silly & irrelevant" explanation. Instead, childish hijinks. Ho hum.

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

You didn't read the article. Instead you posted an OP comment that was at best ignorant about the subject in question and was actually answered in the article.

Quite what the point of that is only you can know.

[UncleBeer 244]

Still no answers, eh?

Demonized: portray as wicked and threatening.

Lots of doctors smoke, drink and have unprotected sex, so what?
