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.

Looks like someone ratholed some...

That, of course, will be used by certain folks to assert some sort of -ism in the treatment of the fellow in Texas who did not make it, whether anyone in the US was aware or not...

Flies.

Could ebola be spread by flies that land on corpses or on bodily fluids from ebola victims, which flies then land on healthy humans?

Maybe that is how those healthcare workers get infected despite wearing protective gear when treating the sick.

I have been wondering the same.

A quirk I have noted of many of the Africans I have known is that they don't seem to notice flies landing on their skin.

Could the flies become winged fomites by landing in the contaminated fluids (feces seem to attract them, for instance) and carry the disease to a victim? Seems entirely possible to me, although infection (barring transdermal infection) might depend on the virus being further transported into a wound or to a mucous membrane, whether by sweat or some action of the victim.
