“In Sierra Leone, 10 motorcycle taxi drivers have been infected after unknowingly carrying Ebola patients, according to the president of the National Bike Riders Association, David Sesay.

The two-wheeled taxis, which put rider and passenger in close contact, are an indispensable form of transport in remote areas of west Africa.”

So....Riding on a packed bus or subway won't get you infected, but packing on the back of a motorcycle will?

If you can get the sweat of the victim on you, chances are you are one too...
