Ebola is scary. Very scary. And if you watch TV news or listen to politicians like Rand Paul, we're one infection away from a U.S. pandemic.

"We should not underestimate the transmissibility of this," Paul, an ophthalmologist, said on Laura Ingraham's radio show. "It's a big mistake to downplay it and act as if 'oh, this is not a big deal, we can control all this.' This could get beyond our control."
