The Ebola Threat

The author of this editorial Mr. Van D Hipp, is the chairman of American Defense International Inc. and also the former chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party. He criticizes our nations lack of defenses towards the Ebola virus. Even though the only people in our country with the Ebola virus are people who were giving medical care to a man who contradicted this virus overseas where the outbreak occurred. I Disagree with the author and don’t think the ideas he states are warranted. I find him to be an alarmist. The “Complete Quarantine”  of the 3 “hot zone” countries is completely absurd and would be a breach in the countries sovereignty.  Training exercises similar to the ones by the DHS(Department of Homeland Security) post 9/11 would be for nothing. The author in my view does more damage than good in this post and sadly his audience(other alarmists) will eat this up.
