| Ebola spreads through contact with (body) fluids. and also bats. I dont think its airborne |

I love you Ebola-chan! |

Rokumi said: j0x said: the OP given links already here is another one - http://edition.cnn.com/2014/09/12/health/ebola-airborne/ the keywords are evolving and mutating to be airborne and experts say its possible Yeah, it's also possible for an Earthquake to happen or for the sky to fall or HIV to become airborne. I'm not taking precautions. LOL at the people saying it could be airborne.....they have zero knowledge of Virology or Biology. Ebola is a hemorrhagic fever (EHF). A hemorrhagic fever CANNOT BECOME AIRBORNE JUST LIKE HIV. Hence the Journalists of this article are fucking stupid or ignorant. |
| People really want a zombie apocalypse, but when it becomes airbone the idea of a zombie apocalypse doesn't sound so cool anymore right? |

Rokumi said: Those were pseudoscientists though.j0x said: yes because you have more authority and knowledge than experts Just like the "experts" said the world would end on 2012? I don't think what he said is necessarily true, but please come up with a better example. |
j0x said: Why are your arguments always terrible?yes because you have more authority and knowledge than experts That's the "appeal to authority" argument. Nonsense spoken by a expert is still nonsense. |

| Scary shit. if ebola becomes airborne nobody will come to me closer than 3-4 meters or I will use my sword. also I will wear medical mask everywhere. |
j0x said: tell me how is it none sense then with scientific facts and not just your own confirmation bias It's nonsense because it contradicts basic biology and virology. There are no scientific facts on what that expert says. |

Rokumi said: It's not airborne, and I don't live in Africa or some other 3rd-world country, so I'm not concerned. Agreed. Somehow, I get the feeling that all this spread panic is just another plot by the pharmaceutical industry to sell some of their products. Every normal influenca kills a lot more people worldwide. I've been healthy for years, so I'm not going to panic or take more precautions, just how BSE, swine flu, chicken flu, Noroviruses and other potentially panic-inducing incidents didn't bother me. |
| My measures for now is simply avoiding Africa. It's a measure it has worked well for me. Coolspot said: I will do nothing maybe ill buy some anti-bacterial soap if a friend gets it I already use one. It makes feel cleaner. |
| didnt some dude get injacted with a vaccine or innoculation or some shit i remeber seeing it on the news but its only a preventative measre that cant be used if you already have ebola? |

OnlyTemporary said: didnt some dude get injacted with a vaccine or innoculation or some shit i remeber seeing it on the news but its only a preventative measre that cant be used if you already have ebola? I heard two US doctors that worked in Africa got the virus and were transport back to the US and are now recovering after a experimental therapy. The truth is that pharmaceutical companies have lots of this "experimental" up their ass but they do not like giving them out because healthy people are bad for business. |

HOWEVER while we are at it penguins will start flying as they evolve... The family Filoviridae include Ebola virus and Marburg virus. The filovirus life cycle begins with virion attachment to specific cell-surface receptors, followed by fusion of the virion envelope with cellular membranes and the concomitant release of the virus nucleocapsid into the cytosol. The viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp, or RNA replicase) partially uncoats the nucleocapsid and transcribes the genes into positive-stranded mRNAs, which are then translated into structural and nonstructural proteins. Filovirus RdRps bind to a single promoter located at the 3' end of the genome. Transcription either terminates after a gene or continues to the next gene downstream. |

Rokumi said: It's not airborne, and I don't live in Africa or some other 3rd-world country, so I'm not concerned. This^ And also, Ebola was discovered back in 1976, why are people worried about it just now? If it was to mutate then I'd have happened already cuz it's an old disease. |

This^ And also, Ebola was discovered back in 1976, why are people worried about it just now? when a contagion rapidly spreads during an outbreak, there is obviously an icrease chance for mutations |
