Polotics of Ebola

In a recent article by a Washington's Post opinion writer Dana Milbank stated that the recent ebola outbreak is serving as basis of a political fight. He stated how many argued that the Us government should have been more prepared for the recent Ebola outbreaks. The basis of their arguments was the point that if the National Institute of Healths budget was not being cut, we could have developed a vaccine or cure for the virus. To build theie arguments they gave examples that included quotes and numerical figures of some of the cuts that have been made, to the research department on ebola specifically in the past four years.
     I agree with Milbank's, and I think they are blowing thie issue of Ebola up for the upcoming elections. I personally think that the United States is doing a decent job of controlling the virus , we just need to work on making sure Healthcare workers are properly trained before treating individuals with the virus, which isn't a federal issue. Just as stated in the article the National Institute of Health (NH)  has money but chooses to use it on different types of research , and I think if their should be a concern is should be on monitoring what the NH is spending the funds on.
