My impression is that they are saying that it isn’t airborne, but remember that within 3 feet, you could still get some liquid on you from coughing and sneezing, and rub it in your eyes, or such tissue that isn’t your outer skin. But sharing the same air isn’t a problem.

Have you ever ridden in a car with the windows rolled up with two or three other people? That's water vapor...expelled moisture...coming from the lungs of people. With an ebola victim, that moisture is full of ebola virus. I would not want to share air for very long, if at all, without some kind of barrier between my lungs and the expelled body fluids coming from their lungs.

I wouldn’t want to either, but it is puzzling that after 8 or 9 months the numbers are so low, and taxis are still used to transport them.

How do dozens of outbreaks over 40 years die out, why aren’t millions already dead?
