Are you worried about the Ebola virus reaching the USA?

[Kathi]

This is the first time I have done a poll so I hope it is ok.

 

[Classik]

Is it going global? Read stuff on BBC.com

 

[Kathi]

God has a purpose for Ebola and for it going where ever it goes.He has a plan and He is in control so I put it in His hands.I have total trust in God.

 

[Kathi]

The CDC is saying that Bleach is Ebola's worst enemy.Remember that if you have to get out those bleach wipes.

 

[TOG]

I'm more concerned about it reaching Europe, because then I might get it.

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. Matthew 24:7

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Philippians 1:21 KJV
I am not worried about anything in life. God is in control. If it is not my time to depart to my home in heaven I shall remain here in the world.

Are you asking people if they are worried about it potentially reaching the U.S. or if they are worried because it has reached the U.S.?

That's what I was gonna say.

I do think that ebola is a concerned but shoot my moms said prior to the seventies many kids died from pneumonia. has the church ever taught that was a pestilence? tb? diphtheria. malaria, yellow fever. I do think the media should cover it but the media is about viewers and advertisement.

 

[Knotical]

I am actually surprised it hadn't gotten here before now. Or maybe it has before and we were just never told.

With the only case being reported in Texas I think many people will be staying away from that state for a while. Of course some reports are saying that the person who is infected flew hear, which means there are more than 100 people that could have been exposed to it and didn't know, from who knows where. The problem could get exponentially worse as things progress.

Time to become bubble-people.

 

[Lewis]

I voted no, but now if somebody comes here and we or they don't know that they have it, we are in trouble. I have been watching this virus for years now, and I always thought about it coming here, years back. Well it is here but I am not going to worry about it at this point.

 

[Kathi]

That is has reached the U.S.

 

[Kathi]

I am going to have to research when the seals are opened and if they are opened before the rapture.This is a pestilence for sure.

Kathi...

...do you think we're approaching The End Times? On the one hand, I don't want to read too much into it. That said, I was talking to my older, wiser, Pentecostal friend and its like...just over the past 10 years, the world has changed *so* much that its ridiculous. I mean, economic shifts (downward, for most of us), social changes, all sorts of stuff.

I think we have been in the end times for awhile.Your friend is right.Our world definately has been going downhill in the last 10 years.

Crap, I voted for the wrong option...

I'm not too worried. It's a lot harder for ebola to spread in a first world country since it's not airborne.

Yet anyway...

The 1918 flu pandemic (January 1918 – December 1920) was an unusually deadly influenza pandemic, the first of the two pandemics involving H1N1 influenza virus.[1] It infected 500 million[2] people across the world, including remote Pacific islands and the Arctic, and killed 50 to 100 million of them—three to five percent of the world's population[3]—making it one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history.[2][4][5][6]

most of the victims were also soldiers.
