Woman who “carried” the disease in Canada has succumbed to it again. So much for the legend that once you get it you are immune.

What first case of sexually transmitted Ebola means for public health

Check out article.

Thanks, markomalley. Interesting.

What ever you do don't tell anyone, like the liberal socialist did when ever a sodomite was transmitting AIDs all over the world! No one could ask them about their partners, or life styles, it was all to be kept a big secret allowing AIDs to spread like wildfire.

We can only think about he damage allowing Ebola to spread around this country since Obama and his ilk imported illegal immigrants with Ebola into this country.

God help us all!

So we don't know as much as we said we know. This is my shocked face😐

I was thinking something similar.
So dying of every other disease on the planet wasn’t enough to make you keep your pants on?
Will fear of Ebola finally kill the rampant prostitution and rape culture there?

I read the article and the subject of sailors kept coming up.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

As the full article points out, the tests detect RNA, not live virus. A more definitive study would culture the viruses to see if they are capable of reproducing.

One definitive study found live virus in semen several months after the infection had cleared. I’m drawing a blank on the exact time-frame.

Not to be crude, but I wonder if the virus (dead or active) would clear from semen faster if men would, um, play with themselves more to clear the contaminated fluids from their system.

The virus is not growing in the seminal vesicles, but that area is “immune privileged” (I think that’s the term), meaning that the immune system cannot access it to clear out the virus. And the fluid buffers the virus with a suitable pH and salt content, which could prevent it from being destroyed by environmental factors.

I’m beginning to think male Ebola survivors should be chemically castrated for 9 months or so after their symptoms go away. After all, with Ebola, one wet dream could ruin your whole family’s day.
