Thanks BTK. That is very timely and interesting information.

Here is what I read in the attachment: "You can only get Ebola from touching bodily fluids of someone who is sick or has died from Ebola, or from exposure to contaminated objects such as needles. Ebola poses no risk in the USA".

I guess that means that all of the 1600 people who have contacted the disease since March have touched bodily fluids of a sick person.
Care givers are really angels in disguise.

And where would the most likely places be to come in contact with other's bodily fluids? Airplanes, cruise ships, public restrooms are the first ones that come to mind.
