Note her menition that Ebola turns people's internal organs to mush. Wasn't it reported that the Egyptian sailor's organs were turned to mush? (That's the guy on the Egyptian ship going from Brazil to Canada, who was first thought to have died of anthrax, than then reported it wasn't anthrax, but they didn't know what it was yet.)

And just why is it that we can't go to a nurse practitioner and get a smallpox shot?

As far as I am concerned, the ideal transmission medium is illegal drugs, especially cocaine. Note that Venzeula's Chavez has reportedly moved a Cuban bioterror lab into Colombia to work directly with FARC.

The drug pipeline is well established, widely distributed, and the means of infection is extremenly efficient. Transmission to nearly every population center in the nation would be virtually immediate. People would be snorting it for more than a week before anybody was the wiser.

It's a natural. I can't imagine that this hasn't occurred to terrorists, either.
