Anybody else scared of this disease? A lot of the ignorant population is being... ignorant... and thinking they won't catch it. It's pretty terrifying that the disease is spread through virtually all bodily fluids. Sweat, saliva, urine, blood, etc.
Do you know how easy it is to come in contact with sweat? You touch somebody's sweat or come in contact with it and they have ebola, and you pretty much have it. You work in a restaurant where someone with ebola is eating, you'll probably have it (saliva is on their fork... their glass... their plate...). You go in a public restroom and get a little bit of urine on your leg or shoe from someone with ebola, and then that transfers to your skin, you can get it. Ebola is a lot different from HIV/AIDS and is so much easier to transfer to another person.
I live in Dallas where the first Ebola patient in the US just died today just about 11 miles south of where I live. There is a second report of someone who had contact with this (now deceased) patient and this new person has started showing symptoms, and instead of calling someone, he went to a Care Now in Frisco TX (a suburb about 10 miles north of me), and now every patient and person working in that Care Now has potentially come in contact with the virus! About 20 people potentially infected just because this man came into a Care Now! There's supposed to be a live news conference about it at 3:30 (about 15 minutes from now).
The Center for Disease Control has been covering up just how deadly this disease is to prevent a panic, and has been promoting people to go to the State Fair of Texas and other places just so the economy doesn't collapse, but they are not being entirely honest in their reports on TV. They aren't saying that it's actually very rare for a person to actually survive the disease even with dialysis, ventilator, (possibly even) blood transfusion being used.

This video is good for education
I'm pretty much on high alert, because I go dancing a lot, and now that I know it can be transferred via sweat and saliva, I am like... CRAP.

The best you can do is have a plan for yourself and family. If you want to trust in the government, your doomed.
. I was a little uneasy for a while too, just because you never know. So I know how ya'll feel. I'm hoping this doesn't spread outta control. I'm always out and about.
