if this continues into flu season, well how would you know the difference until its too late,symptoms are similar initially, hospitals and doctors surgeries filled with people spluttering, sneezing, coughing vomiting, appointments filled up, can’t get to see a doctor....I’m steering clear of those places, will only take one to slip through and there will be a pretty bad outbreak.
Glad I got my flu shot.
so yes, yes it can...from the CDC.....
Can Ebola spread by coughing? By sneezing?
Unlike respiratory illnesses like measles or chickenpox, which can be transmitted by virus particles that remain suspended in the air after an infected person coughs or sneezes, Ebola is transmitted by direct contact with body fluids of a person who has symptoms of Ebola disease. Although coughing and sneezing are not common symptoms of Ebola, if a symptomatic patient with Ebola coughs or sneezes on someone, and saliva or mucus come into contact with that person’s eyes, nose or mouth, these fluids may transmit the disease.
in other words, if someone sneezes or coughs right on you, you can get it, so this bull about it not being easy to get is rubbish.
I would like to see a graph ( from CDC ) on how care is distributed. Where are the quarantined housed ( in separate quarters or in large rooms to spread the virus ), where are Ebola positive patients put and how many healthcare personal does it take to care for one, being massive fluids have to be administered. Or are the masses just put into rooms to take their chances of recovery...just like Africa. I think the later.
