This isn't about "lifestyle choices" and it isn't about personal freedom. It is about controlling a potential deadly health crisis, not only in this country, but in all countries. And I KNOW that you know this. But yet you to compare it to, and use it as a platform to discuss your favorite topic (food and obesity). WTH is wrong with you?

People are contracting and dying from this virus. I seriously think you need to keep your food and obesity phobias out of these discussions. It is not relevant and it is most certainly not appropriate.
I didn't know that you are in charge of setting the rules for this discussion. And you say the rule is: Base the discussion on emotion!!!! Ebola is coming to kill us all!!!

Right now it does boil down to a lifestyle choice. As someone has already said, watch what you do. Don't do anything to put yourself at risk. And I have said: Watch your intake of bodily fluids from others, the same as you would for HIV/AIDS.

Nobody cares about the 596,577 yearly deaths from heart disease and the 576,691 yearly deaths from cancer. It's just a matter of getting used to it.
