As I'd said, I love that this is a fairly international forum - as a matter of fact, I don't even know where EMD is based, which would normally make me leery - since most of the forums I participate in are close to 100% American. And I realized that there are often questions I've been curious about, with not many opportunities to ask, so I should try here, especially since the Lounge tends to be rather languid.

If you're not in the U.S. - how is your country reacting to the Ebola threat? Is it all over your news? Is it simply presented as news, or is there fear-mongering? It's one of the dominant stories in network television news, despite the fact that there are barely a few cases in a population of 300,000,000.
