This is such a sensationalist thread and we've got far bigger issues in society to be concerned about imo. Undecided

The possibility of airborne Ebola does take precedence over this, I agree.

That's old news; they kept the two in very close proximity for an extended period of time, inevitably it was going to spread.  As long as you're not exposed to someone with ebola for extended periods of time, you're probably not going to catch it; you have much greater odds of catching and dying from the flu.
