CDC head: ebola could become the next AIDS...huh?

[Billy000]

I find this statement puzzling. In what way could this disease possibly become parallel to AIDS? The death rate of ebola varies depending on where it spreads. AIDS kills all of its victims but when they die depends on their treatment. These two diseases spread very differently as well.

If he were to say "this pandemic is the next Spanish flu", I would be freaked out. Instead he said AIDS. I mean as serious as the condition is I don't understand why he would make such a comparison.

Anyone have a theory? The best explanation I can come up with is the amount of people who will end up getting it. In terms of the world population, AIDS affects a small percentage.

They are both spread by contact with bodily fluids. If ebola gets into the gay tribe it will burn through like wildfire.

He's another Obama, a guy who is complete and in way above his pay grade. I think Obama picked him because he's gay

I don't know , compare it to aids , well at least aids is survivable so the comparison makes it seem that ebolee is also survivable . Like I say , I don't know , maybe just spin and BS !!

Lol well here is where your bigotry gets you into trouble. Nothing about that makes any sense. Ebola only spreads when symptoms show and sex is the very last thing on anyone's minds while they are in the throws of it.

That's when they are very sick. The early symptoms are the same as a cold. Runny nose, sneezing, coughing. Nothing that would interfere with love.

Even then the risk of transmission is very low and most people wouldn't have sex then anyway...

Gays aren't like most people. If they were Aids wouldn't have spread like it did.

For one thing, HIV is much more likely to spread through intravenous drug use.

Second, transmission through lesbian sex is practically unheard of.

Jesus, here comes stupid on a plate....Ebola is much more easily contracted than AIDS. You can't get AIDS if someone sneezes within 3 feet of your face, you can get Ebola that way, though. HIV is much more fragile than Ebola.

To be perfectly graphic: In order to get HIV while not being gay, someone would have to stick their finger up the rectum of an infected person and then quickly stick same finger down their throat. With Ebola it's much simpler.

What most people are missing here is the immutable natural law which provides that:

Nature WILL HAVE ITS CURE... .​

HIV is far and away a male homo transmission problem. Period.
