Something ‘happened’ in 2013 to put Ebola into turbo-high gear. I do not believe this is an accident. Ebola was on it’s way out just two years back, now look as it approaches a full scale pandemic. For now, all we can do is pratice UNIVERSAL PRECAUTIONS, the same thing you do to guard against the spread of MRSA and other ugly bugs; #1. Do not overuse anti-bacterial soap.#2. Do wash your face arms and hands after encountering a person with this disease. #3. While at ‘adult play’ use protection, as one should be doing anyway to guard against Gonnorhea and others. #4. Wear Gloves while cleaning up any bodily fluids not your own. This is getting serious.
But Weyland-Yutani just wanted to study the alien.
None of those precautions will protect you against Ebola if you contact an infected person. You need full body cover protection with Ebola.
