But Ebola only gets transmitted by contact with bodily fluids.



Don't need the hazmat suit.

Yeah...that is a little derpy.  Article says he wasn't displaying any other symptoms, but I would think they wouldn't declare him non-contagious until they do a blood test.

What I told my wife last night.
They say it's tranmitted through body fluids just like Aids.

Then why has the CDC rushed over there every time there was an outbreak ?

Why wear the hazmat gear. Why quarantine people ?

It's almost like the 0bama administration is purposely trying to spread this disease across America.
Otherwise how do you justify their behavior.

Unlike AIDS which generally requires a TRANSFER of bodily fluids (and almost exclusively blood), Ebola requires only CONTACT with bodily fluids (and virtually all bodily fluids).  Also, Unlike AIDS, Ebola tends to survive fairly well in fluids once they are outside the body, like bodily fluids on bedding, clothes etc.  

AIDS patient spits on you, pisses on you, whatever you are not getting AIDS.  You pretty much need an exchange of blood, i.e. intercourse or needle sharing.  Ebola transfers with simple contact of many bodily fluids, like puke, piss, mucus, etc.

You could make out all day with an AIDS patient and as long as both of you don't have open sores in your mouth you ain't getting HIV.  Not so much with Ebola.

I'm not much for conspiracy theorys but I'm starting to think this.

We've been told that we (US) has to do something to help fight the disease.

What better way to do that than some skin in the game.

Did he eat the inflight meal?    It has been a while since I had food poisoning but the vomiting was within a few hours after the previous meal.  I do not recall if I had an elevated temperature.

You're guess is as good as mine. I'll be honest, this stuff makes me nervous. I'm not so much overly-worried for myself as I am for my daughter (4 month old) and step-son (5 year old). Maybe I'm being irrational but I'm worried.
