I still think it's exceptionally easy to have someone who is just starting to present symptoms or just shy of presenting to be a weapon.

Air travel, tourist destinations, hell, the stock exchange...

Simply shaking a hand, leaving a sheen on a pole or hand hold on a bus...

If I'm thinking about that, someone else who has more evil intentions is too.

Thing is though, ebola ISNT supposed to be transmited through fomites (door knobs, bus rails, buttons, etc.). It isn't supposed to survive outside of the body. However, it appears it is to some degree. And the CDC and WHO won't acknowledge the studies proving that for fear of even more panic.

Not trying to be a conspiracy theorist, I just think its odd they cannot contain this infection from people who are literally head to toe in protective equipment.

Yep.

Sad but true world we live in now. If someone is willing to blow themselves up why wouldnt they also be willing to go this route.
