Now that the administration has given us Enterovirus D68 in minor epidemic quantities, along with Scabies and TB, his latest idea is to send US troops to western Africa to help with the Ebola epidemic.
The last time soldiers got involved with a disease it was the Spanish Flu of 1918. Large numbers of people in close daily contact coupled with a contagious disease is bad news all around.
Of course the military is a group that famously has been voting the wrong way of late, so maybe this isn't such a hare-brained idea after all. Speaking of hare-brained, Sen Durban thinks that a general amnesty would help contain the spread of Ebola. Presumably limiting it to West Africa and North America.
