Ebola is transmitted exclusively by bodily fluids and not by air, like colds and the flu. In developed countries, Ebola would be less transmissible because of less crowding, much greater sanitation as a matter of routine, and the availability of modern medical care. Finally, in the developed countries, isolation measures would prevent the hospitals from being centers of Ebola infection as they commonly are in Africa.
Every body fluid you can think of. Sweat. Spit. Urine. Feces. All of these exit the bodies of the victims in copious amounts and all of these have copious amounts of the virus. Cough or spray aerosols the virus over a relatively large area. Being in a car with someone who is sick has already spread the disease and killed others.

You would think. Except for subways, Walmarts, restaurants, malls, trains, airplanes, schools, immigrants living stacked on one another to save money, etc. etc. If anything it's just as crowded in most of our major cities as it is in Africa.

People routinely get "hospital" diseases such as mrsa. That can't even be eradicated. Unless ALL medical personnel are willing to suit up every time they see a patient with the sniffles, runny nose, fever or diarrhea this disease will spread just as surely as it is in Africa.
