Here is another PR flack making medical diagnoses and claiming that ebola cannot be transmitted through the air. If that is true why are the people who transport suspected carriers of ebola dressed like spacemen and the infected person covered up in a cocoon?
[From article]
Spokesman Josh Earnest said that current anti-Ebola measures, which include screenings in West African airports and observation of passengers in the United States, will be sufficient to prevent the “wide spread” of the virus.
The chances of a U.S. epidemic are “incredibly low,” he said.
“The reason for that is that it is not possible to transmit Ebola through the air. ... The only way that an individual can contract Ebola is by coming into contact with the bodily fluids of someone who is exhibiting symptoms.”
