    Even still, should Ebola reach the US, Europe, and/or Asia we're ed. My question is how real is that possibility considering how inept Africa is?
    A worldwide ebola pandemic isn't anything to spend time thinking about unless your part of the fear mongering media. It just isn't spread efficiently enough to cause global destruction. Even in the African outbreak only ~900 people have died whereas this fall in the US anywhere from 3000 - 15000 people will die from seasonal flu. Worrying about ebola is like driving cross country to avoid the risk of flying.

    What if you introduce the fact that person may like long road trips into the equation?

    Good point. There was an outbreak in the early 2000's that amounted to nothing like the Hanta Virus, it will be devastating to the forlorn impoverished African nations but it will probably not be that much of an issue here. Also, we need to stay away from the bats! They carry these diseases like its nothing.

    Well they would still be taking a greater risk of dying but at least they would die happy.

    Apparently anyone heavily infected can spread it through coughing. A doctor for the WHO mentioned that a person in the middle to latter stages of Ebola could infect an entire plane with a couple of coughs or by vomiting.
    A person in the later stages of Ebola is most likely not around a large group of people and would probably be quarantined in a hospital.

    The best part about the outbreak is all the doctors that suddenly appeared on facebook telling me how harmless it is.

    The CDC has now set a highest response level. The World Health Organization is expected to set a pandemic warning shortly. The
    virus can travel the world quickly because of air travel. It has a 21 day incubation period before you show signs of it. There is no
    cure yet. This could just go away or spread around the world. I would just keep informed about it.

    ^ Them Nigerians are everywhere either scamming the outta you or selling drugs.

    Africa has to evolve otherwise China will take it over. Heck they already own half the land in that continent anyway.

    If I thought you were "really" just another dummy hiding behind a computer I wouldn't say . I know that isn't the case so I wonder why you bother with this silliness. It really is stupid.

    Dude, come on man.

    Are you sure about that?? Or are you just remembering scenes from Outbreak when the virus mysteriously mutated and went airbourne?
