Comment on Viral growth that we don't want

Comments

First read up on it. Ebola requires physical contact with body fluids from an individual who is currently symptomatic. For this reason alone, it is unlikely to spread the way (for example) influenza does.

I have an advanced degree in microbiology from UC Davis and it is my opinion that the Ebola "scare factor" is way overblown. People simply need to read the facts about the disease and how it spreads. It doesn't spread via aerosols (sneezes)... nor by magic.
