Direct effects from Ebola in the US: One dead (who was late being treated), two infected but stable. Indirects from Ebola: Dallas Presbyterian Hospital went from 56 minute average ER wait time to zero wait time, drastic drop in patient numbers, up to 60% routine office visit cancelations for physicians offices housed within their complex. Terrorism charges for people faking Ebola symptoms. Temporary unemployment for hundreds, if not thousands, of people who are being monitored due to exposure. Millions of dollars of supplies and time being poured into hospital worker training and PPE/isolation/hazmat supplies. A non-medical politically-connected Ebola Czar named by the White House. A huge hit in public confidence in the CDC. Untold lost tourism and travel dollars. And prepping has gone mainstream. All from one death in the United States.
