IS EBOLA COMING TO CANADA?

Knowing the complacency of human nature about Primary  Prevention (read an article I wrote a few years ago about primary, secondary and tertiary preventions) and the fact that people in authority are reluctant to take strong action lest they be accused of being alarmist, the answer is Yes. But, in the unlikely event that you know someone who knows Prime Minister Harper and ask him to read my posting, the answer might be No.  Ebola is as serious threat as ISIS but it can be more easily contained. All Harper has to do is  declare a national emergency: Send back right away every person or animal that arrives in Canada by air, rail, boat or car from countries known to have an outbreak of Ebola. Keep the names and identity of these people or animals taken by the border authorities for 21 days. After 21 days if the individuals or animals are tested and certified in their countries to not have Ebola they can enter Canada. Here they will be quarantined for another 21 day after entering the country to watch for return symptoms. Ebola is a deadly disease. Don’t do what the Americans are doing. They are overly complacent. People will soon be dying in the US. And, for every death that will not occur in Canada, you should then send a thank you note to Prime Minister Harper.

Personally, my idea of Primary Prevention is great but I don’t think such protection will happen until the 25th Century when we become more aware of things, but I tried. At this point in our psychological development as a Cro-Magnon species let’s just hope that Ebola, Aids and ISIS somehow just fade away, Blessings.
