THAT is my feeling. I think it's horse crap. It's an appetizer to get our fear factor increased to get the people behind whatever the next steps must be. I'm not saying it's not here... I'm saying it's been around since the 70's. How odd is it that we start talking about Ebola for a few months and then boom, suddenly it's here. Idk. Maybe those reports about ebola several months back were to warm us up about the IDEA that it could be here.

Ebola was always scary because it kills so fast, but that was always its downfall. It would kill people too quickly to spread very far, killing a lot of people in a small area, but burning itself out before it could spread.
This new strain has a lower mortality rate and kills people slower, which may seem like a good thing at first, but actually means that it has the potential to be spread to far more people.
It is also speculated that this strain may actually be airborne, unlike previous strains.
