RIP dude that's gotta be a shitty way to go.  A month ago you were healthy.

[TobiasFunke]

Can people just learn their lesson and go to the contagious countries?

If Marion Cotillard had Ebola, I still would have sex with her.

[TobiasFunke]

I'd definitely take a vat of her infected saliva, mix it with a Chic Fil A oreo cookie shake and inject it in my veins.

[Tank]

note to self - if tobias invites me over for lunch/dinner, pass.

[TobiasFunke]

Are you beautiful like Marion Cotillard?

 

If not you have nothing to worry about.

[gotbeer]

And so it starts.  With flu season starting, get ready for mass panic and packed emergency rooms.

Jesse Jackson to meet family of Ebola patient in Dallas

I read that the CDC recommends immediate bagging and sealing of the body.  No embalming, no pulling IVs or anything, and especially no viewing of the body.  Odds that Jackson makes a stink about the family not getting to see the body/say goodbye and threatening a lawsuit?

BREAKING: Second patient in Dallas suburb exhibiting Ebola symptoms.

 

News conference in about an hour.

People need to relax.

 

Q: How is Ebola spread?

 

A: The disease is spread person-to-person through direct contact with body fluids like blood, urine, sweat, semen, breast milk and feces. Ebola usually incubates for about 10 days before showing symptoms. However, people who have been exposed to the disease may show symptoms in as little as two days, or up to 21 days after exposure.

Humans were first introduced to Ebola through contact with infected animals like primates, fruit bats and forest antelope, according to the CDC.

 

Q: Since Ebola can be transmitted via blood, can mosquitos or fleas spread the viral infection?

 

A: No. Ebola is only spread through direct contact with infected bodily fluids. There is no evidence supporting mosquito-borne Ebola, Rattay said.

"Certainly in Africa there are mosquito-borne diseases and they have not seen Ebola transmitted," Rattay said.

 

Q: What are the chances of a widespread outbreak in the United States?

 

A: Extremely low.

"The reason that it is transmitted so rapidly and easily in West Africa is because [there isn't] adequate personal protective equipment," Fishman said. "The disease itself the transmission's fairly easy to prevent if you use personal protective equipment."

I agree but..

If patient #2 in Dallas was just in patient #1 apt. They say the virus isn't airborne. So how would the cop contract the disease? Shaking hands?

[Hollyw00d]

Seems like it wouldn't be that hard to get infected by sweat or saliva

Update 3:53 p.m.

Frisco mayor Maher Maso says that city officials have been told the risk is minimal, and the sheriff, Michael Monning, was only transported to Presbyterian out of an "abundance of caution." Patients at the Care Now have been released. According to Frisco officials, Monning was not one of the 48 people being closely monitored by the CDC after contact with Duncan. Frisco's fire chief says Monning had contact with Duncan's family members, not Duncan himself.
