No, it is transmitted by bodily fluids only.

Well but If you sneezes or if you touch one person who is sweating then you get infected.

It's not THAT easy :laughga: The fluids have to get through thin membrane. That means eyes, mouth, etc. It can't go through your skin.

No, it doesn't work that way. I suggest you do some research on Ebola.

MONROVIA, Liberia (AP)  Liberian officials fear Ebola could soon spread through the capital's largest slum after residents raided a quarantine center for suspected patients and took items including bloody sheets and mattresses.

The violence in the West Point slum occurred late Saturday and was led by residents angry that patients were brought to the holding center from other parts of Monrovia, Tolbert Nyenswah, assistant health minister, said Sunday.

Up to 30 patients were staying at the center and many of them fled at the time of the raid, said Nyenswah. Once they are located they will be transferred to the Ebola center at Monrovia's largest hospital, he said.

West Point residents went on a "looting spree," stealing items from the clinic that were likely infected, said a senior police official, who insisted on anonymity because he was not authorized to brief the press. The residents took medical equipment and mattresses and sheets that had bloodstains, he said. Ebola is spread through bodily fluids including blood, vomit, feces and sweat.

"All between the houses you could see people fleeing with items looted from the patients," the official said, adding that he now feared "the whole of West Point will be infected."

Some of the looted items were visibly stained with blood, vomit and excrement, said Richard Kieh, who lives in the area.

The incident creates a new challenge for Liberian health officials who were already struggling to contain the outbreak.

Liberian police restored order to the West Point neighborhood Sunday. Sitting on land between the Montserrado River and the Atlantic Ocean, West Point is home to at least 50,000 people, according to a 2012 survey.

Distrust of government runs high in West Point, with rumors regularly circulating that the government plans to clear the slum out entirely.

What.  :awkney: WHY?

I can accept that they may be scared or unaware of the threat Ebola poses to them, but how does stealing blood and excrement stained mattresses help anyone?

:shocked: Unbelievable. Are they asking for an open invitation to the deadly virus killing them and 100's, if not 1000's of more people?

 

Stupid, and ignorant.
