Rwanda to screen U.S. visitors for Ebola

a reply to: snarky412

I keep telling you that I'm referring to when he left Liberia
Did you even read the news articles I posted?

Yes. But you said he lied about being from Liberia. The article you posted does not say he lied about being from Liberia.

That is what I've been trying to tell you via USA Today, they are the ones that posted it

So what?

Evidently the government of Liberia knew he lied because they were going to prosecute him for denying being around a person with Ebola on the exit form

An you think he would have been found guilty? Is everyone who is prosecuted for everything always found to be guilty?

Phage, you are just being argumentative now
I stated in the previous post that I was wrong--mistaken-- about the 'where' instead it was misleading about being near a person with Ebola

my quote:
"Yes -- I was wrong in stating that he omitted 'where' he had come from
But what he had lied about was extremely important and cost him his life "

See, I admitted that I was wrong in the 'where' on the form
It has been a week or so since I was in the thread and couldn't remember exactly what it was that he lied about on the exit forms

Well now I am clarifying what I said and apologize for any misleading due to improper word usage

An you think he would have been found guilty? Is everyone who is prosecuted for everything always found to be guilty?

LOL. Seriously, you are holding me responsible for this???
Like I said earlier, take it up with the Liberian gov't--they thought it worthy enough to prosecute

You're just reaching now for arguments sake...

Sometimes an argument can stimulate thought.

well.. i still stand by what i said, if they did what Rwanda is doing then even with Duncan lieing about being in contact with the Ebola patient then with him coming from L;iberia he would still have had to report every single day for 21 days, and they would have picked up on his symptoms i think it is a really great idea personally, if they cant stop planes they could atleast do stuff like this along with the airport testing to be extra cautious..

Just my 2 cents-
but as Rwandan militants commit
incursions into the DRC, and militants
from the DRC return to Rwanda,
the conflict is so fragmented there
are now, Kenyans, Nigerians, South Africans,
and mercs of all creeds and cultures fighting
these border wars and 'anti-insurgent' conflicts,
quarantine went out the window a long time ago.

A gesture like this is as political as an American
politician screaming for restrictions on air flights,
(The world is so interconnected, our food supplies,
immigrant familial connections, etc) , that measures
likes these are nothing more than that, political
gestures to try calm the electorate and try to win
a few votes the next election. Why are people so
confused that African politics are governed by the
same political b/s that runs almost every other country?
