Whilst the World Is Watching the Ukraine or Gaza or ISIS...

... Ebola is spreading in West Africa.

More people have died from this outbreak than have been killed in the latest Israeli-Palestinian brouhaha, but people dying from an infectious disease doesn't make for good television footage. Not when compared to shit getting blown up, that is.

And the correspondents are probably more afraid of a virus than of shrapnel.

  1. And the possibility of someone burying a family member, getting infected and then getting on a plane to return to Europe or the US while the disease incubates is very real.
