    First world countries are in good shape unless a terrorist induced "surge" occurs that swamps the isolation wards of hospitals. Hopefully, clandestine operations will continually find and destroy that terrorist capability before it crosses borders.

    In the next few years, several million people will die of Ebola in Africa alone.

      Yeah, but it would be difficult to cause a "surge" with Ebola specifically; it's difficult to spread whilst a patient is asymptomatic.

        It would be simple with the right technology. Think about it.

          I have thought about it. There are pathogens that are much deadlier and much easier to spread. If terrorists wanted to use biological warfare, this would be a fairly shitty weapon.

            I'm not going to help the terrorists by announcing how to spread it. But, very easy ways exist.

              She is at it again. CountessDouche has been kicked off previous Ebola posts for failing to meet reasonable standards of academic thoroughness. IINers can click the following link to review her past poor performance ->
