The math for something as complicated as disease transmission can’t be boiled down to simple doublings in a set period of time...there are just so many variables involved.
I do think that if the Ebola virus mutates and becomes easily transmitted through coughing (like the common cold) it will indeed be a catastrophe of Homeric proportion.
Oh I agree. Way more complex than that. But I also think this outbreak may - MAY - be a lot worse than the authorities are saying. You know, that whole “avoid a panic” thing.
No. It is already transmitted through droplets.
