That site cites authorities which don’t back up its claims, i.e., it appears to invent its facts. If it claims anything, find confirmation before you believe it.

Well the existing studies do show a propensity to increase the viability window of Ebola with lowered temps and humidity. And as Mom Doc said, given there`s never been a Ebola infection in the wilds of a Northern climate, we just don`t know.

But given that president Obola will not stop or quarantine travelers from West Africa, or health workers, I think we may find out the hard way. Paladin suggests freezing Ebola will preserve it, will it? I live near Akron, OH and after Amber Vinson, I don`t want to find out.

Imagine this scenario: Another Vinson is sick, she sneezes at the entrance to a public place, catching the sneeze in a flimsy tissue which blows thru. Then she touches the door handle or a hand rail on the way in. It`s cold enough and overcast, due to fall weather, so the contamination is cold preserved and protected from UV.

How many times does she repeat this? How many will touch those cold preserved handles or rails? Will they then go eat a Big Mac without washing their hands? What if the Big Mac attacker has a cold or allergy?
