For Ebola to get here why does it have to be an infected person?

A scenario from a terror thread.... Ebola patients kidnapped from that Ebola ward....what if a few of those kidnappers were muslims intent on terror and took samples....that would be easy to get over the Southern boarder.

Don't like the kidnapper scenario how about islamic aid workers doing the same? Why do they even need to get it over out boarder? Why not just release it in South America or Mexico and let it get here on its own?

You want ideas on how Ebola could get here with a good chance of working just read a couple of terror threads here on Freerepublic.

Oops, I should have included you in my response #2324 to Smokin’ Joe.

I do not care to speculate on the potential use of Ebola by terrorists. There is a reason Ebola is a category A agent, and I will leave it at that.

I post information about natural infections and chains of transmission only.

There was a Tom Clancy novel where terrorists took Ebola from the blood of infected people, put it in spray cans, smuggled them into the US and spread the Ebola at trade shows (from which people would return to their home towns all over the US).

Sure, it sounds like a far-fetched thriller plot-line. Almost as far-fetched as the Tom Clancy novel where a guy decided to take an airliner and kamikaze it into the US Capitol building....
