Truth is if nature sends out a disease that is going to be the next plague, there isn't a whole Hell of a lot we are going to be able to do about it.
I think talking and threatening to do this that or the other is talk and won't change millions from dying from it if we are going to die from it.
The only defense we have is a medical community working non-stop on a vaccine or cure.
Of course this is just the latest in a cycle of diseases to be talked about as the "next plague".
20 years ago it was AIDS
10 years ago it was Ebola
5 years ago it was SARS or the mosquitoes that carried encepholitis(sp?)
Point is we're always going to have it out there, disease, and we can live our lives worried and hoping government can find a cure before it is the plague, or we can go about life and realize there isn't much we can do.
Like I said working in a drug rehab with all sorts of germies already, if it comes I'm probably done, so I can worry everyday about it and keep my distance or I can go about my life and if I get it, I get it.
Expecting or allowing the president to lay down Martial Law, before all else has been done to try to stop it is a wasted effort. If it is coming it's coming and Martial Law won't do a damned thing to stop it.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
