I find some some of the comments to be fascinating. Here's 3 from user "Bren":
"I think our prayers are better sent up for the countless other Americans this selfish doctor chose to infect."
"Dr Brantly, you answered a call. That was your choice. But to bring that disease back to your fellow Americans is unforgivable. You are no hero."
"Everyone who comes in contact with him is in danger and he knows it." |
When the first news of the bird flu hit my home country, I had a doctors appointment while vaccinations were given and I heard a complete sanely normally acting man screaming to a nurse that he want's a shot.
He was in no risk group, so he would have been given one later, but didn't want to wait, bc his life was in danger. People change so much under this kind of stress. It's too much for too many.
I never got the shot. I think evolution has to be given a chance to correct human paths every once in a while.
