I have spent a little time compiling links to threads about the Ebola outbreak in the interest of having all the links in one thread for future reference.
Please add links to new threads and articles of interest as the situation develops.
Thank You all for you participation.

HD Chopper 8 caught crews cleaning the sidewalk outside the Ivy Apartments where the #Ebola patient stayed.
No PPE? I hope they track the cleanup crew, too.
OMG!!
Those idiots cleaning up that mess just gave themselves Ebola!
Powerwashing Ebola vomit into a nice fine mist of areosolized ebola infection droplets. Breakout here we come!
Possibly into the water/sewer system and so on..... that’s what happens when you have third world people living in the US.

“Ebola Patient’s Family Ordered To Stay Inside After Trying to Leave”
The original edition of this story has this content:
“We talked today (with Duncan) and we prayed together with his mother and sister here, said Joe Weeks, who lives with Duncan’s sister Mai.
Weeks said that the family is concerned that Duncan was admitted to the hospital and put in isolation on Sunday, but hasn’t received the experimental Ebola drugs.
I dont understand why he is not getting the Zmapp, Weeks said.”
My eyes started to glaze over when I saw that.
I’m so busy these days, that I’d just rather see it in plain print.
Never worked a construction job?? How about paper cuts for the office worker? Most of the adults I know get probably 2-3 cuts a year, but the kids I know are almost weekly getting scrapes, scratches, or cuts, just as part of being active. Not so rare as you might think.
I was speaking of actual blood contact. I am well aware that people have multiple micro-cuts, which could certainly allow Ebola to penetrate the skin if one comes into contact with infected fluids. But I cannot think of a single instance where those micro-cuts lead to significant bleeding, or where blood from a minor cut ends up on other people.
I get micro-cuts all the time. I have cats. They have sharp little claws. They are also hungry. When they are hungry, they use their claws to get my attention by tapping my bare skin with their claws slightly extended. Ouch.
I have never heard of this site before, but here it is for what it’s worth.
He was lying down on the floor with a comforter. He said he was sick and that he had no appetite, Mr. Jallah said.
I said, Did you go to the hospital? He said, Yes, but they did nothing for me, Mr. Jallah recalled. I said, You should eat so you can gain strength.
Mr. Jallah left to go to work, but returned the next day after his daughter, who lives with Ms. Troh, called, sounding frantic, saying that Mr. Duncan was still ill.
When I went back, the man was sitting on the bed. He was drinking coffee or tea. My daughter said lets call 911, he still doesnt have an appetite, Mr. Jallah recounted.
Mr. Jallah agreed. Ms. Troh and her family were growing worried, he said. They all knew that Ebola was tearing through their homeland, though at no time had Mr. Duncan talked about coming into contact with sick people before traveling, Mr. Jallah said.
They considered carrying Mr. Duncan, who appeared increasingly weak, outside to a car and driving him to the hospital, but decided to wait for an ambulance instead.
When the ambulance arrived, Mr. Jallah said he told emergency workers that Mr. Duncan was sick and from Liberia. The workers subsequently put masks over their mouths.
My daughter was scared, said Mr. Jallah. She didnt know what was happening.
Mr. Jallah, who is being monitored by health officials because of his contact with Mr. Duncan, said he is worried about the well-being of his family members as well as for Mr. Duncan.
He is also struggling to understand how Mr. Duncan was able to arrive in the U.S. despite being sick.
A lot of people are sick in Liberia, he said." http://online.wsj.com/articles/dallas-man-says-u-s-ebola-victim-had-been-ill-1412270496
