            Not really. It has a high fatality rate because the countries it occurs have shitty health systems.

            I'll just stack up on .22lr and boil some water.

              • it's not communicable in incubation, so unless they are sick, you cant get it. There is theoretically enough of the virus in saliva to transfer, but it would have to be on an open wound or get into an orifice. You pretty much have to contact their blood or feces, and I generally stay far away from those anyway.

                Plus, they have a vaccine now, that only works on white people.

                        CDC said yesterday they dont have anymore vaccine, all they had was used on the DR and the CDC doesnt even know if it worked.

                        But as you stated unless you have come into contact with the infected's bodily fluids then there really isnt an issue.

                        • If you read the press release, this was the first case diagnosed in the US. This was not a case of Ebola contracted in the US. That guy had just came back from Africa, he brought it with him . As of now, no one has contracted Ebola in the CONUS.

                            I'm sure his family and people around him have it. According to the news the authorities looking for those family members as we speak. One of them works with BP and is on the run...

                              WBAP reported this morning that there is a 2nd suspected case from his family. It true, that would be the first person infected in the US..
