    That's great news! Hopefully the other cases are the same and we can put this behind us.

    I doubt it's over.

    Remember what Rahm Emanuel said . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb-YuhFWCr4

    What are the three things government covets most and usually gains from each new "crisis"?

    More money, more power and more control.

    Is there anything at all that can happen in this world without it being some sort of conspiracy theory. Is it possible that sometimes, things might be exactly what they appear to be.

    In this case the press is running the ebola scare story 24/7 while the Obama administration is trying to calm everyone down. It's pretty obvious that the conspiracy theory about crises being used by government is false in this instance.

    Can someone explain the rationale behind the CDC having a patent for a virus? IS this to keep companies from profiting off the virus ?
