Didn't an entire family in Canada come down with it (including the children)? I hope he's not suggesting that it's only transmitted via sexual contact. My guess would be transmission via any body fluid. Maybe just transmitted more easily towards the end if you are coughing up a bunch of goop out into the air.

He's not. The article speculates that it could get sexually transmitted female to male in earlier stages of the disease, but that in advanced stages it's virulent enough for airborne transmission.
