Ebola is a very serious disease and obviously a very serious public health issue. It’s something that should be taken very seriously, and as we’ve seen even the CDC makes mistakes.
But there are way too many people out there trying to gin up fear and hysteria over this issue. That includes media members trying to generate clicks or eyeballs, and politicians trying to capitalize on the fear.
The reaction to this photo is just one example. Read this article, and hopefully you’ll be able to keep calm while taking this seriously.
The media is doing an awful job explaining Ebola, and #ClipboardMan is proof http://t.co/X3GJB0ziRw pic.twitter.com/1KZMvyizty
