    The latest news on the Ebola war is that it might have invaded Hawaii. Right now there's a patient in the Queen's Medical Center who is in isolation status in a regular room with possible Ebola symptoms. Of course since they are so laid back there in paradise they don't have a clue as to what disease the guy really has. Guesses range from the flu, malaria, and typhoid. This might be an indication that you should never get sick in Hawaii because they aren't up on the various diseases and ailments that humans get.

    Right, so the medics in Hawaii who trained in US medical schools and had to pass the same exams as their mainland colleagues, are less competent because...?
    In the early stages of Ebola the symptoms are indistinguishable from those of many flu-like viruses. From your link:

    "I think it's also more likely that they have another condition which presents with similar symptoms".
