Oh, this is too easy. If travel restriction from Ebola infected countries would be in place we would be better off.
First, those two links only talk about the presence of travel bans in Canada and elsewhere, not their effectiveness.
We both know the reason you left that part out is because they don't work. As recent travel bans have shown, they at best delay the spread of a disease by a few weeks. They are totally ineffective at stopping the disease from arriving.
Second, a travel ban would limit the ability of healthcare workers to travel to the affected countries and stop the disease there, which is the only proven way to eliminate all risk.
So from a public health (and common sense) perspective, your solution would kill more people than the current policy.
But I'm sure you'll have another witty emoticon.

Your logic is just one of the many reasons why America is changing the landscape on Tuesday.

I'm glad that you admit that the best way to eliminate all risk is "to travel to the affected countries and stop the disease there". I completely agree.
So, this begs the question: Why does the Obama Administration consider plans to import infected persons here to the USA for treatment?
I think that you are fighting a losing political battle because the average US voter no longer trusts Obama and his minions. For years, we've seen lies, distortions, double-talk, intimidation, taking the "Fifth", underhanded dealing and deflection.
So, as they say, the chickens are coming home to roost.
If this article is a pack of lies and distortions, I would have a huge problem with that. I would find that disgusting.
However, the Obama Administration itself has already been demonstrated to be disgusting in many areas. As such, whenever somebody says something like "Obama's importing infected constituents into the USA and is killing our kids", it has the ring of Truth.
So, you've got an uphill battle WhiteKnighting for Obama because the jury's verdict is returned -- Obama is a miscreant.
We'll see what the voters think of Obama tomorrow.
