We're watching Atlanta. Here is an Ebola eyeball turned red from bleeding. (Guardian.com)

It’s here. I wrote about it. I joked about it, but it’s here. At least my other article offers advice on what to do. But it’s here, so here is the latest on the Ebola. migration.
It seems as if Ebola’s visit to America is strictly business for now. There will be no outbreaks or reasons to shoot your neighbor in the face. It doesn’t help, however, that The Walking Dead takes place in Atlanta and that Terminus is the original name suggested for Atlanta, a fact I got from The Talking Dead.

There is a bit of a love story here. Of the three Americans affected in this outbreak, one is dead and two others, both aid workers, who are still infected and coming home for treatment. But there’s only an experimental serum for one of them, and the younger man gave it up for his older female colleague. Our chivalrous hero, gifting what might’ve been his chance for survival to her, stepping aside with class, so that she might step through the door to life after Ebola. It may not be romantic love, but for the young man working for Samaritan’s Purse, it is love driving his actions.
Kent stepped aside and let the lady try the serum. Good luck to both of you. (madamenoire.com)
Kent Brantly, 33, and Nancy Writebol were both caring for Ebola patients in Liberia. An experimental serum was administered to Nancy this week. At the same time, Kent received a unit of blood from a 14-year-old boy he had treated and helped to survive. Seen as somewhat desperate, but worth a shot by doctors, and again,this was another act of love, and love can cure.
These two coming home, overall, is a good thing. Any citizen would want the same option. The facility to treat them is one of four in the country with the state-of-the-art equipment and isolation. I don’t think the virus will go anywhere.
There is no known cure or vaccine for Ebola, which the World Health Organization says is believed to have infected 1,323 people, 729 of whom are confirmed dead in Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Nigeria between March and July 27.
So here’s the creepy part. Vaccines are such a big problem in this country. They are largely unregulated, especially when it comes to preservatives. TheH1N1 was dangerous, more people died from the vaccine than the illness. Lots of vaccines are preserved with mercury or formaldehyde–both of which cause nervous system damage. So, the National Institutes of Health announced it will begin testing an Ebola vaccine in people as early as this September, and also mentioned that they’ve had success with this vaccine in primates.
H1N1 Vaccines killed more people than the virus. (sodahead.com)
Whose job is it to give Ebola to monkeys? One of few jobs worse than working the kill floor of a meat packing factory.
In every job I’ve had, there have always been evil people in the ranks. That’s the only reason why I’m uneasy about these people coming back. It’s possible that someone with bad intentions could seize an opportunity to do something sinister if they get a hold of a virus with a freak-out factor as high as Ebola.
Please don’t get the Ebola vaccine because 700 Africans died. Americans are not that timid of a people. The Ebola virus should not get out here.
Be rational and take percautions. Learn to recognize symptoms and know what to do if you think someone is infected.
