Yes, see, this is the exact type of thing, an almost systemic complacency ("Ah, I'm sure it's fine, here's a prescription") that causes me consternation. As a lay person who is not prone to panic or paranoia, I know this exists within our healthcare system, I've seen it. Then we have an outbreak of Ebola, something as a layperson I would call a moderate contagion but with a high mortality rate, start to make it's way through the west (barely, granted, but still make it's way) where we have the protocols and procedures in place to deal with these things but don't because of the previously mentioned 'complacency'. Then all we hear from the authorities, through the MSM, is basically two stories: There is no cause for alarm or Everybody Panic.
As I said, not prone to panic or paranoia here but I'm just not sure the sense of "It won't happen here, this is Ohio/Maine/Nevada, etc" won't win out over the protocols and procedures. Because I'm not seeing that being addressed adequately.
