So now the CDC says the droplets can travel, THROUGH THE AIR..., and infect someone up to 6 feet!
Although they say it's NOT airborne, because it floats in the air after the infected person walks away. LOL! Oh and of course they do not give you a specified time period. Really???
So the CDC says in order for something to be "Airborne" has nothing to do with the way it travels, IN THE AIR, but if it "FLOATS" after the infected person walks away.
Well here is Webster's Dictionary definition of Airborne.
Airborne: done or being in the air : being off the ground: as
a : carried through the air (as by an aircraft) b : supported especially by aerodynamic forces or propelled through the air by force c : transported or carried by the air

Where are they studying this transmitability at such that they are changing their BS line on a daily basis now?

Hey where is that Freeper who keeps claiming she is a Scientist and you must be within 3 feet for a PROLONGED TIME to catch Ebola?
Wonder if she is ready to concede she is wrong.

The time of spread is NOT 21 days - here is the data.

At least this kind of info helps make more sense of what is going on in Africa. There couldn’t be that many people kissing dead bodies but folks in groups coughing on each other, that makes sense to me.

Sheesh. Sounds just like the global warming debate.
Bottom line: the so called experts are a bunch of idiots.

Droplets generally travel shorter distances, less than about 6 feet from a source patient.And yet, Kaci Hickox is allowed to be three feet or more from another person. What's wrong with that picture?
PING!

I have read in some posts that a sneeze can spread up to 20 feet.
Add to that the fact that ebola and other viruses can survive several days out a body and even in the dried-out state — on door knobs, etc.
CDC is still playing a guessing game while trying to maintain a political balancing act.

Warm weather is the only thing keeping this virus from being airborne.
