    They are coming home! To Emory University in Atlanta GA. For more info, go to: http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/us-confirms-2-americans-with-ebola-coming-home-for-treatment/2014/08/01/c20a27cc-1995-11e4-9e3b-7f2f110c6265_story.html

    Ebola is the most dangerous virus that I know of. There is no cure and no treatment. You can't live for years with ebola like you can with aids. Ebola has been around longer than aids. In many African tribes, when ebola has struck, they burn down the village and the bodies. This is how they have prevent the spread of ebola. It is that dangerous. Read the book "The Hot Zone". It is a non-fiction book about ebola. It will scare the crap out of you. I do not want these infected people in the states, no way, no how!

    Yes, like a lot of diseases, Ebola spreads by contact with body fluids. However, it has a 90% kill rate and not a disease to wish to have establish itself here. It is a biosafety level 4 agent; there are only 4 levels so this puppy is as high as it gets. The CDC considers it to be a category A (again the top) bioterrorism agent. NOW do you see, Jim, why informed people do not want to take a chance of it getting into the USA to stay??

    Ebola isn't passed by airborne transmission. It is like AIDS in that it goes with body fluids.
