Ebola is mutating with every new victim; constantly learning how to do it's job better. That's what it's programmed to do. It's already transmitted by close sneezes and coughs like the 'flu' and it won't be long before it can survive airborne.

Using tracer viruses, researchers found that contamination of just a single doorknob or table top results in the spread of viruses throughout office buildings, hotels, and health care facilities. Within 2 to 4 hours, the virus could be detected on 40 to 60 percent of workers and visitors in the facilities and commonly touched objects. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/09/140908093640.htm

The toilets are clean, but the handrails, doorknobs and light switches never get cleaned. Staff wear latex gloves to spread the contamination from one surface to another, just like in the food service industry. North America isn't prepared for a serious pandemic, when norovirus, 'staph' and c. deficile are already at epidemic levels in some facilities.

Ebola 'devouring everything in its path'. ...deaths in West Africa outbreak near 2,300 and reported cases surge. It's finally getting up to speed, but still a long way to go to equal malaria when up to 100,000 can die from malaria in the region in an average year.
