Martha would suggest a Very Topless Christmas to one and all, and close with the words,
“Let’s hope Barry doesn’t kill us all before the year is out, and G_d bless us, every one.”
Even that is not a certainty. Lab workers conjectured about other mechanisms besides propagation through HVAC ducts that could have explained the infections.
Sure would like to see that link. Are you sure it wasn't from a fictional work?
Pretty much
Sorry, incubation meaning still viable in the human body after initial exposure.

“Lab workers conjectured about other mechanisms besides propagation through HVAC ducts that could have explained the infections.”
Please share the conjecture if you will. I’d love to hear it. Perhaps they were French kissing each other or something.
Just sloppy lab maintenance — tracking things around.
Should have said, “Communicable.”
That’s not at all what incubation means.
Maybe, and maybe not. The question is which way do you want to bet?
The stakes? Your life.

I know. I clarified. My bad. Not the greatest using a outdated smartphone.
We as humans don’t have to worry much about Reston. Non-human primates, not so lucky.
“We as humans don’t have to worry much about Reston. “
You do know that viri can mutate. Don’t you?
I wouldn't lie awake at night worrying about Reston mutating. Zaire and the others are threatening enough as is.
It is reported that in some cases the “incubation period” can be up to 42 days.

My impression is that we still don’t fully understand the replication and transmission sequences for the various strains of ebola.
Symptoms seem to be secondary to tertiary symptoms of the actual viral attacks and easily confused with other viral symptoms until its too late.
Additionally, the 2-22 day period before symptoms become manifest, not only make it difficult to identify or verify, it encourages either very costly quarantine or very hazardous risk of exponential contagious dispersion, simply by inaction and relaxed precautions.
“I wouldn’t lie awake at night worrying about Reston mutating”
I used to think we were paying the CDC to lie awake at night thinking about that sort of thing. I no longer do. Our government is being run by dangerous morons playing with things they neither understand nor respect. It’s going to get a lot of people killed.
The 42 day "safe interval" is just 2*21.
