Ben Carson: Ban Ebola-infected people from entry; treat them elsewhere

As the Ebola infection rate and death toll continue to rise rapidly on the African continent, many of us have become complacent with the measures we have taken to protect Americans from this deadly disease. The Centers for Disease Control and various infectious-disease specialists have done a yeoman's job in their efforts to prevent infected individuals in our country from contaminating others. They have put excellent protocols in place that would virtually guarantee complete safety. Unfortunately, all of those valiant efforts cannot preclude human error, which remains an ever-present danger, regardless of intellect.

For this reason, I and many others are not comfortable with the idea of bringing infected individuals into our midst when we can readily treat them elsewhere and happily receive them back once the infectious danger has passed. I have no desire to induce panic, but we must realize that some viruses are known to undergo mutations that make them even more virulent.

Alan Keyes: Universal health ID’s are a threat to liberty

Clinton & Congress [are moving forward with] assigning everybody a unique health ID card, providing centralized access to medical records and other personal information. When “identity” becomes a federal government-issued privilege, it becomes a direct threat to our liberty. The fundamental job of Congress is to protect our liberty, not “rationalize” our health insurance for us. We will lose liberty to somebody who wants to take our freedom so that he can help us.
