Almost 2,000 people have died from the recent cholera outbreak. Another 40,000 are infected by the preventable disease. Red Cross has delivered 13 tons of supplies this week to combat the outbreak but they still desperately need chemicals to treat the tainted water.
Should someone go in to help the infected? Should the infected be quarintined?

Well, obviously the Red Cross is trying their best to help them out...and I think it'd be pretty hard to get 40,000 people across Zimbawe into a quarintined area, but it'd probably help.
There was that one movie Quarantine. Patrick told me it was supposed to be pretty good
who did the soundtrack for that one? Toxic Love in the Tempo of Cholera? (Patrick, you went to their concert, right?)

Of course someone should go help the infected. And quarantine? I can imagine the environment they would be place in looking like a refugee camp. That would also take them away from their families and such.
Didn't the guitarist for Hydroelectric Astraddle make a guest performance at that concert?
is that who it was? i thought it was the girl from Nefertiti Metarhythmic Connection!! but, we were in the bleacher seats, so I couldn't see all that well...
