STILL FAILING!!!!!!!!!!
CDC: You Can Give—But Can’t Get—Ebola on a Bus October 15, 2014 - 3:26 PM By Brittany M. Hughes

(CNSNews.com) - Dr. Tom Frieden, director for the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said during a telephone press briefing Wednesday that you cannot get Ebola by sitting next to someone on a bus, but that infected or exposed persons should not ride public transportation because they could transmit the disease to someone else.

As Dr. Spock would say, "That is not logical."

Can you trust the people who couldn’t do a web site with containing Ebola?

Did this guy really graduate from medical school?

Orwellian double speak and it seems to come naturally.

I mentioned to an acquaintance of mine that the nurse should not have travelled on public transportation. The reply was, “She didn’t. She flew on a plane.”

Upon questioning it became apparent that some believe public transportation is the bus, occasionally a taxi, but only if the city pays for it. If you pay yourself, it is not public transportation.

Not kidding.

Tell me that all came out of his stupid mouth in one sentence! even if not, they need to fire whoever wrote it...

I think I undesratb what he is trying to say, and his point is actually logical (to a point), but explained horribly. I think that what he was getting at is that (a) Ebola is spread through bodily fluids, so unless the Ebola patient is actively vomiting/bleeding/etc, you are unlikely to get it simply sitting on a bus with someone who has it, but (b) if you have Ebola, you way we’ll start vomiting and bleeding and the like, so you should avoid getting on buses where you may end up vomiting/etc on others.

That sounds like a prime example of liberal logic to me.

Someone else? So WE are totally safe, then? WE can’t get it on a bus. Just someone ELSE. Whew, that is comforting.
