This is exactly what I thought while I was listening to the CDC press conference. It was a snow job.


*Ebola researcher says he would not rule out possibility that the virus spreads through air in tight quarters

*'There are too many unknowns here,' a virologist says of how Ebola may spread

*Ebola researcher says he thinks there is a chance asymptomatic people could spread the virus

If your immune system is working, you don't have to worry about how it's spread.

I don't know anyone who has built up immunities to ebola, except perhaps the doctor from Dallas who contracted it and recovered. The same for the nurse who contracted it. Being in good health, eating right, exercising is NOT how you build up immunities.

I think that when it comes to Ebola, 99.9% of people don't have any idea what they are talking about, and are just repeating crap they have read that was written by somebody else that didn't know what they were talking about either.

I've been reading about Ebola (and Marburg, Dengue, Yellow Fever & Malaria) since around 2000, when I first learned of it from "The worlds most dangerous places". It is a subject that intrigued me, so I've been reading about these diseases ever since. The information is out there, IF you want it.

Well, now that the only known infected person in Texas is dead, all we have to worry about now is Clay Atkins and Rick Perry. :D

Well, now that the only known infected person in Texas is dead, all we have to worry about now is Clay Jenkins and Rick Perry. :D
