Bodies are already being left on the street.

Flies will land on these bodies, pick up the virus, and then land elsewhere. Other insects, rodents, etc., have the same potential.

I have yet to see a discussion of flies as a vector for Ebola. If they can spread the virus, as seems highly likely, then controlling Ebola in these regions is impossible.

Because most patients have some known and more direct vector, we do not know how little it takes to get the disease. One to ten viral organisms is sufficient to cause infection, but could that be transmitted by a biting fly? a fly which had been on a corpse walking on a fresh scrape or cut?

If so, and violence ensues among the 'healthy', more cases are virtually guaranteed.

Things are not going well from what we can see.
