Ebola seems mostly like a sexually transmitted disease. It can be spread otherwise, such as the nurse who treated the infected African in Taxes. But, it isn't spread easily.

I think you are confusing Ebola with something else. It isn't spread easily NOW in the U.S because people in white CDC outfits are aiding these people and they are under isolation. However Ebola is a highly contagious/easily spreadable disease. Look at Sierra Leon, and Liberia. 5,000 deaths and rising.


Ongoing prayer is needed for these people in these countries.

I'm not confusing Ebola with anything else. Every authority I've read disagrees with your assessment that it's highly contagious. "Ebola is not particularly infectious. The primary risk of catching Ebola comes from the bodily fluids of people who are visibly infected..."

Ebola spreads as fast as it does in Africa because sexual perversion and promiscuity are common there, along with incompetent medical practices. The only reason there aren't millions infected in Africa is because Ebola quickly run its course, unlike AIDS.

Ebola is NOT an airborne disease. The following article gives more info on how you get Ebola. Please read it. :)

Oct. 6, 2014 -- Amid continued confusion over how Ebola spreads, the World Health Organization issued new guidance on Monday aimed at public education.
First, the agency says, the virus is not airborne. Catching it through the air would depend on getting an infectious dose of the virus from a suspended cloud of tiny particles. That’s how diseases like the flu andmeasles are spread.
Those viruses become airborne because specific cells that line the lungs and nose release a fine spray of viral particles into the air, says Elke Muhlberger, PhD. She’s a microbiologist at the Boston University School of Medicine who specializes in the study of Ebola. People don’t even need to have symptoms to spread those diseases, she says. Ebola, on the other hand, is contagious only when someone has symptoms. Scientists have been studying Ebola for decades, and they’ve never seen the disease passed through the air, according to the WHO. What’s more, it’s highly unlikely that the virus could change to become airborne.
The only way Ebola gets into the air is in large droplets of vomit or saliva. These droplets are heavy and wouldn’t be able to travel very far.
In theory, people might be able to catch it if someone coughed or sneezed directly onto them, but people who get Ebola generally don’t cough or sneeze.
What’s more, the WHO says it’s not aware of any studies that have ever shown the virus spreading this way.
Catching Ebola from someone else requires “close and direct” contact with infected body fluids, the WHO says. The most infectious body fluids are blood, stool, and vomit. The virus has also been found in breast milk and urine -- and in semen for up to 70 days, though those fluids are considered to be less infectious.
Finally, the WHO says saliva and tears may also carry some risk, but it says more research is needed.
In studies of saliva, the virus was only found in people who were in advanced stages of the disease. The live Ebola virus has never been found in sweat, the WHO says.
The CDC says that in a single study, done under ideal conditions, the virus has been found to remain active on solid surfaces for up to 6 days.
In theory, then, a person might be able to touch a contaminated surface, rub their nose or eyes, and become infected.
But the WHO believes the risk of getting the disease this way is probably low. You can cut that risk even further by properly cleaning and disinfecting surfaces.

Yes well the "liberals" decided it was "racist" to stop Ebola from coming into the country so now it's starting to snowball. The World Health Organization just announced we'll probably see 10,000 new cases a week as it ratchets up and they raised the mortality rate from 50% chance of death to 70% chance of death. Enjoy, courtesy of the Obama Administration and your local "liberals."
