Census data suggests that the nation’s capital is the second most popular immigration destination for those from African countries, with the Ebola Hot Zone countries “donating” a fair proportion of DC’s new residents.
This might mean that Texas won’t have to ship their ebola patient to Washington in order for politicians to get the point. Already two people with symptoms suggesting ebola infection have been admitted to DC area hospitals.
Perhaps it will be as simple as tweeting praise and admiration for the advanced medical treatment available in Washington DC. If the politicians have Ebola in their own back yard, maybe they’ll come to understand that a borderless country is not going to rise out of this economic depression any time soon.
Economic stagnation is not the best fuel for medical, or any other kind if research, just in case anyone was interested in assisting other countries in mitigating their Ebola disasters.
