Re: Ebola case is now confirmed in Mali Africa
Would it kill you to put Mali, Africa?

I mean really, I just wasted 2 seconds of my life googling where the hell Mali was.

Mali, Africa

It's in Africa.

Your headline should have read

Ebola case is now confirmed in Mali Africa

That’s the thing about progress; all the word means is “continued movement in the same direction.” If the direction was a bad idea to start with, or if it’s passed the point at which it still made sense, continuing to trudge blindly onward into the gathering dark may not be the best idea in the world. Break out of that mental straitjacket, and the range of possible futures broadens out immeasurably.

Re: Ebola case is now confirmed in Mali Africa
The only reason this was found and diagnosed was because of the age of the patient.

I’m guessing 2+ weeks in to this at least.
I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw.

A vaccine shot? What?

Believe it was stated that they were from Sierra Leone. When the parents expired, the kid went to live with relatives in Mali and here we are.

Right if you believe that, you will believe anything.

Do you know how far apart Sierra Leone is form Mali?

It is at the complete opposite end of Central Africa.

Why didn't they quarantined the Child? Why was she allowed to travel?

They don't know for sure, but a reasonable explanation or two has been provided.

I firmly believe we know less about this than anybody wants to admit. We are a prideful species, with a causation complex. Humility to the powers of nature are not our strong suit, generally.
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” - Frank Herbert

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the blah, then to the Gentile. For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” Romans 1:16-17
