greenchair Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 They should have closed all non essential flights and access in or out of the first country hit months ago. or closed down the first and second countries when it was known the disease was crossing borders. Or maybe when it hit a third country, they could have closed the first ,second, and third. Are we up to a forth yet? starting to lose count. what's the point in having a Who. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingthedream Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I'm just wondering how long before some terrorist group like Boko Haram or IS will find a use for this killer disease - they are crazy enough and couldn't give a toss for the consequences Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
