Ebola seriously threatens Liberia's national existence: minister
REUTERS By Michelle Nichols 18 hours ago
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Liberia's national existence is "seriously threatened" by the deadly Ebola virus that is "spreading like wild fire and devouring everything in its path," the country's national defense minister told the United Nations Security Council on Tuesday.
Liberia is worst hit by West Africa's Ebola epidemic and will likely see thousands of new cases in coming weeks, the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Monday. More than 1,000 people have already died in Liberia.
"Liberia is facing a serious threat to its national existence. The deadly Ebola virus has caused a disruption of the normal functioning of our State," said Liberian Minister of National Defense Brownie Samukai.
"It is now spreading like wild fire, devouring everything in its path. The already weak health infrastructure of the country has been overwhelmed," he told the 15-member council, adding that the initial international response was "less than robust."
U.N. special envoy to Liberia Karin Landgren told the council that at least 160 Liberian health care workers had contracted the disease and half of them had died. She described the spread of Ebola as "merciless" and warned that the reported cases and deaths in Liberia "understate Ebola's true toll."

Once outbreaks start happening across Europe and the US, you can bet that the response will be "robust."

Like anyone would notice if it did collapse, including most of the people living there.

Seeing that one of the main modes of transmission of Ebola seems to be taxicabs, it wouldn't surprise me.

Smear a little sweat on the back seat area between fares to and from the airport for a couple of days and it's everywhere.
They tell me NYC is full of Paki cab drivers. Also been told that a medallion(taxi permit) cost $600,000 per cab.....how the hell do they afford that?
