[quote=moneymaker]I think I might have a cure, anybody want to be a test subject? Amazing how quickly the doctor died in Africa, sounds like it is a lot more deadly than AIDS. The WIKI is very detailed on the subject. I was in Africa in 1987 and was vomiting and throwing up simultaneously, good thing I was unaware of Ebola at the time or I probably would have been freaking out.[/quote]
You’re right, it’s more deadly than AIDS. And transmission methods are about the same. But people have and spread HIV for years without even realizing they have it. If you get Ebola, you know about it in a few days. That’s a very small window for spreading it, considering the methods by which it is transmitted. Therefore, unless the method of transmission changes very significantly (or the time between acquiring the virus and the beginning of symptoms increases drastically), it will never be as widespread as AIDS.
