I have been saying for weeks for President Obama to stop the flights from West Africa. So simple, but he refused. A TOTAL incompetent!

BTW President Obama has been working on Ebola since late last spring.
WASHINGTON (CBSDC/AP) President Barack Obama warns the Ebola virus could mutate if it is not controlled.
Speaking to NBC News Meet the Press, Obama said that the Ebola outbreak that has killed more than 1,500 people in West Africa is a national security policy and that the United States has a responsibility to help contain it.

If we dont make that effort now, and this spreads not just through Africa but other parts of the world, theres the prospect then that the virus mutates, Obama told NBC News. It becomes more easily transmittable. And then it could be a serious danger to the United States.
snip
An earlier $58 million request for the Centers for Disease Control would help the agency ramp up production and testing of the experimental drug ZMapp, which has shown promise in fighting the Ebola epidemic in western Africa. It would also help keep the development and manufacturing of two Ebola vaccines on track. The White House request seeks to use $10 million in unused balances at the Department of Health and Human Services to help with the Ebola outbreak in Africa.
