I’m still curious about the others who spent a week with Duncan in the apartment while he was at his most infectious.

LATimes: Latest from quarantined family 10/13/2014 9:49PM
" A total of 48 people who had contact with Duncan are being monitored for fever or other symptoms until Sunday, the end of the 21-day Ebola incubation period. None has become ill. Duncan’s fiancee, Louise Troh, is among them. Reached by telephone Monday, she said she was “feeling all right” but feared her connection to Duncan would stigmatize her. “I don't want people putting that on me, saying I have Ebola,” said Troh, who has lived in the U.S. for more than 15 years. She has been isolated from most of her relatives since Sept. 28. “I'm hurt; I don't have anyone to cry on,” she said."

BTW...since Sunday, all my comments posted here @ FR are held for review...is that unusual?

They did not get Ebola because it is spread by close contact, not aerosols. None of them had prolonged close contact.

BTW, he was not at his most infectious until he was close to death. Ebola becomes more infectious as the disease progresses.
