The contrast between the number of media requests I got when rich people on a cruise were facing a deadly, but contained outbreak versus now that some of the poorest people in the world are facing a deadly and devastating epidemic is just so so stark and it just really annoys the hell out of me.
@kakape I'm annoyed as well and I'm sure that is a big part. However, it sounds superficially like Yet Another Ebola story, so media attention is lower than for Hanta also because it is less novel to a general audience.
@fataqe @kakape racism I think its called
@Kaetchi yes, so?
@fataqe just a comment and in my life time got a bit better now worsening again
@Kaetchi yeah I can relate :(
