I was reading an article (Gov't Docs 1995) that proved to me that this virus has the strong potential to go airborne. As fast as it seems to be mutating I am convinced it will be airborne over the cold winter which helps fuel the transmission. Somewhere Mtn Man read that the white coats predict by January there could be 1.4 million dead from this virus! Please read link...... http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1997182/?page=1 (CNN)  -- Today, the Ebola virus spreads only through direct contact with bodily fluids, such as blood and vomit. But some of the nation's top infectious disease experts worry that this deadly virus could mutate and be transmitted just by a cough or a sneeze. "It's the single greatest concern I've ever had in my 40-year public health career," said Dr. Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.   "I can't imagine anything in my career -- an...

KFVS12 News  Reports NEW ORLEANS, LA (WVUE) - With the lingering mystery over the latest case of Ebola in Dallas, many people have questioned whether the killer virus has become airborne. A pair of local experts weighed in on whether Ebola is "changing its stripes," so to speak. "What we're finding is, is that the virus is mutating, In fact, it's mutating in humans as the virus spreads from human to human to human much faster than it was when it was just circulating around in the rain forest in the animals there,” said Robert Garry, Ph.D., a Tulane virologist who is also a professor of microbiology. Dr. Garry returned from West Africa in June where he was already doing work in Sierra Leone pertaining to another hemorrhagic disease, and he began monitoring Ebola and its mutation. "Some of the things that we did with the samples was to sequence those viruses, in other words, to determine the whole string of nucleotides that those viruses has and th...

And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. -Luke 21:11 I don't know about you but I am really upset and scared(even tho God tells me in the Bible that he has my back) for our country which includes our families. This disease is DEADLY! Our officials who we have voted in to PROTECT us are treating this DEADLY disease like it is the common cold! I realize that in past times our flu killed 100's of 1000's of people across this vast country. Just go to your local cemetery and you can see for yourselves. But, yes I say BUT we are in times that are way more advanced in technology, science and preparation for illnesses and diseases today. We may not have the cure for cancer which kills 1000's everyday.  This disease is so much different than that of cancer or the common/not so common flu or the common cold!  Here is my question(s): If one(attending nurse or aid worker) i...
