Hello FB Ebola’s Toll Threatens Security in Interconnected World! As the Ebola virus spreads in and beyond Africa, it’s raising the possibility of a global pandemic that U.S. intelligence agencies have warned is among the greatest potential threats to global security. As health workers, diplomats and U.S. troops fight to contain and defeat the virus in West Africa, there now are cases in six other countries; a second U.S. case has emerged; and the World Health Organization puts the death toll at more than 4,000 and rising. President Barack Obama has led urgent U.S. calls for the world to do more, saying that current efforts aren’t enough to stop a disease that in the jet age is unconstrained by national or even continental borders. “We live in an extraordinarily interconnected world, and that is why it is so essential that we put full energy into stopping this virus in West Africa,” said Nancy Lindborg, an assistant administrator at the U.S. Agency for International Development who’s leading the aid agency’s Ebola response. ****(please read this line) “It is essential for the entire world to step forward with the kind of help that can stop this epidemic from spreading further.” - The Ebola Scourge!!!!! *** (please read this line) In a 2013 analysis of future threats, U.S. intelligence agencies concluded that a pandemic that incapacitated 1 percent of the world’s population -- about 70 million people today -- would be “one of the most disruptive events possible.” I need to see if anyone is really paying attention..... Your Elected Officials are lying to the America People. Keep drinking your Starbucks Thank You
