If it goes to India or China, holy shit
yeah ok, lets listen to a tdub poster and not people that actually have training and experience. i'm sure you know best.
While various health crises -- namely MERS and Ebola -- have cast a shadow over this year's proceedings, organizers employed a medical army to address any health issues that might arise.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), this year there were 180 ambulances on standby, as well as 22,000 health care professionals, 141 health centers, 25 hospitals with 5,250 beds, and 19,000 units of varying blood types. Officials also banned pilgrims from Ebola hot zones -- namely Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.
This is exactly the problem. Who has real training and experience with Ebola? This has the potential to be a classic tail event, with huge negative payoffs. It's akin to looking at historical data to predict the next big event, that you can't predict, since it hasn't happened yet.

HHS secretary: There may be other cases of Ebola in the U.S.
Secretary of Health and Human Services Sylvia Burwell said that despite the best efforts of health officials, Americans have to prepare for the reality that there may be more cases of Ebola in the United States.
“We had one case and I think there may be other cases, and I think we have to recognize that as a nation,” Burwell said at a media breakfast hosted by the journal Health Affairs and held at the Washington, D.C. offices of the Kaiser Family Foundation.
