Can't be anything as bad as what naturally occurs down here.Yeah that comes up once in a while from herds around Texas, but the chances of sticking our peckers in deer are less than sticking our peckers in travelers lol.

I'm curious to what's going to happen. Especially when this study shows that it can transmit without any kind of contact. Scary stuff.

Reading that article shows that the experimental facility didn't control the environment properly. The workers "may have touched" the monkey's cage when cleaning out the pigs cage. WTF? Who is overseeing the protocols followed in this experiment?
If that happened, it may not be airborne at all BUT I want proof. This experiment was botched and I would be surprised if they didn't re-attempt under better, controlled conditions....and we just don't knows those results.
The CDC is adamant that Ebola virus is not airborne. They also state it cannot transmit when the host is not experiencing symptoms. From that, they conclude that those who travelled with the Liberian national to Dallas were not exposed. I am not convinced.
Is it possible that his saliva on his cup or any sneeze residue or any sweat dabbed onto a napkin could contain the virus? The amount of virus may not be sufficient in his body to make him feel Ebola symptoms BUT are they there and could a flight attendant, ticket agent, TSA guard or an adjacent passenger have touched, contracted and also spread those few viruses?
I just wish the media would hold the CDC and other health experts on this accountable to answer those questions and then report their findings. Working with knowledge is more helpful and will save lives. AND if the answers to my questions are yes, it could have spread...then there may be collusion to keep people from panicking. But damage could be done already and they are not doing anyone any favors in the long run by hesitating to share that information.
