Our government needs to do more to contain ebola

Created by S.M. on October 26, 2014

To control Ebola, I think we should either suspend all travel into the country from the infected regions in Africa or quarantine everyone for 21 days before coming into America from the infected regions. Also, instead of having every hospital across the country prepared to handle patients with Ebola, we should have regionally designated treatment centers for all infected people to go to. This plan would cut costs and contain the virus more effectively. In addition, I think we need to have all medical staff dealing with patients who have Ebola take an intense course designed to teach exactly how to deal with all patients. Finally, I think it is imperative that we find out how the disease is spread and contracted by further studying and intensively researching the disease.
