[quote=YoungMulla]This US patient was in a Plane headed to the US where he sat amidst hundreds of other passengers en route to Washington.In Washington, he was in contact with tens of other people before boarding a plane to Dallas where he was in contact with other passengers until he arrived. On arrival, he was in contact with hospital staff, children, family and friends. Each person he was in contact with consequently made contact with tens of other people since.

Now, CDC has confirmed his is the only Ebola case, though looking at the statistics above, that is just a brave assumption. If only one other person got the virus from this guy then the whole transmission process starts again.

Truly, containing this disease is almost impossible.[/quote]

Simple test!


...plus the tiny little fact that they have to be 'symptomatic'
so define 'in contact'
