Another one would be Jonas Salk with the polio vaccine. I was born in 1951. A cousin of mine born in 1949 had polio. She suffered tremendously and had many surgeries. I remember standing in line in school in Wyoming and receiving vaccinations.

I'm glad CA has one of the designated hospitals.

The newer tests are much faster than even months ago, so we should know fairly soon. I can't remember how fast it is now.

the following are designated hospitals in California to treat Ebola

• Kaiser Oakland Medical Center;
• Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center;
• UC-Davis Medical Center in Sacramento; and
• UC-San Francisco Medical Center

Yes. And then there were some who weren't doctors or researchers, but tended to the sick, like Father Damien, who worked with lepers and later died of leprosy.

I'm grateful to those who have the courage. I hope that soon, a cure is found for ebola, and those who put themselves in harm's way will have played an important role.

shoekitty, I had surgery summer of 2012 at Kaiser South Sacramento Medical Center. It was a beautiful facility and the treatment I got was superb. Glad to know we have such wonderful facilities in our state.

This conversation with you tonight september has been wonderful. I am off to bed due to some physical ailments. I am also grateful for all who have helped, doctors, researchers, helpers, etc. Their title doesn't matter, their gift to mankind does.

Oh probably going to Africa to help nations that have ebola and helping treat them. Yes they know they could die, and they see the greater good. If we all ran away from danger, where would we be?

If they are going to Africa to help others there, STAY THERE! Don't be bringing that cr*p back here so we can be exposed. If you are so interested in the greater good do it at your own risk.
