          It is a shame, but truthfully right now other countries need to take the lead on anything important that is global. Another opportunity for the EU to step into the lead here, as the American "leadership" cannot be trusted to be diligent or competent.

          With the last epidemic, Trump's solution was to just ban all travel from affected countries. I'm afraid his government's response to this will be catastrophic.

          Other countries have stepped up. The Merck vaccine was actually developed by the Public Health Agency of Canada's National Microbial lab in Winnipeg.

          The people in the Congo are black. This Administration could not care less and probably hope that as many people die as possible because after all any country dominated by people of color is a "****hole'' in Trump's own words. Welcome to the fourth Reich

          Maybe it’s just my heavy heart speaking, but is it possible that he’s not being replaced because our regrettable president perceives this to be a ****hole country?

          I’m unclear as to how an Ebola outbreak in the Congo is the US’s responsibility.

          If he is not being replaced that's a pretty good sign he was, at the very least, being "ignored to death".

          This is very bad news. It is important for national security and public health that the Federal government have a strong influenza pandemic response plan and infrastructure. Just what is the White House thinking???
