| Troops Deploy In Sierra Leone, Liberia To Try To Stop Ebola Spread |
| 2014-08-05 |
| [Ynet] Hundreds of troops deployed in Sierra Leone and Liberia on Monday under an emergency plan to fight the worst outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus, which has killed more than 826 people across West Africa. Panic among local communities, which have attacked health workers and threatened to burn down isolation wards, prompted regional governments to impose tough measures last week, including the closure of schools and quarantine of the remote forest region hardest hit by the disease. |

| #2 Maybe no rounds at all will be required, just point the weapon at anyone trying to leave a quarantined village. |

| #1 Those virus' must be awfully damn big if a soldier can fight them. Either that or the scopes on their rifles are really high power. How many .556 rounds does it take to stop one of those suckers? |
