发帖数: 29846 | 1 Massive Majority Wants Ban on Travel From Ebola-Stricken Countries and Full
Quarantine

This should come as a shock to the media and their newest darling, that
annoying nurse from Maine. Of course they’ll just ignore it and proceed as
if the wishes of Americans doesn’t matter.
Nearly seven in 10 Americans believe the United States should shut its
doors to foreigners traveling from countries that have seen cases of the
Ebola virus, and six in 10 say there should be a total ban on incoming
travel for everyone – including Americans – who want to enter the U.S.
Republicans are overwhelmingly against issuing travel visas to people
who have been to the Ebola hot zone, with 90 per cent favoring the no-room-
at-the-inn approach. Older Americans also preferred a closed-door policy by
large numbers.
The GOP also leads the field in asking for travel restrictions on anyone
entering the U.S. from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. More than three-
fourths of Republicans hold that view, compared with barely half of
Democrats.
Republicans also far outstrip Democrats on the question of 21-day forced
quarantines for those entering the U.S. from affected countries. Two-thirds
of GOPers think isolating potential patients is a must-do. Barely one in
three Democrats agree.
The stunning results come from a MailOnline/YouGov poll that surveyed 1,
000 Americans, suggesting they’re eager to see the Obama White House
embrace the position of Australia – which shut its borders last Tuesday to
all travelers from Ebola-stricken nations – and of Canada, which followed
suit on Friday.
Meanwhile, has anyone seen “Ebola Czar” Ron Klain yet? We figure perhaps
he’s quarantined himself. |
