HI hanrahan
The way Ebola spreads is not totally nailed down some of the experts still believe that it can be spread through the air
I remember hearing our health experts, government and others who flatly stated that the general population could never catch or be infected with HIV (when it first came to Australia)
What has to be understood is a the authorities want to down play the problem as much as possible and politicians are always talking through their a, the plain simple fact is they don't know and as most of the problems are in Africa they do not have sufficient medical research systems in place to know what is happening to a 100% surety
Experts fear Ebola virus COULD spread through the air and not just through contact with bodily fluids • Public is being told that Ebola can only be transmitted by direct contact • Experts warn that the possibility it could become airborne can't be ruled out • 'Assurances Ebola is not spread through the air are misleading' - expert • Ebola has killed about 3,800 people in West Africa and infected at least 8,000
