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.

may actually be airborne, unlike previous strains

Exactly why there should be concern. It's what viruses do. Breaking out my tinfoil hat I can't help but notice the timing of bringing the MD here for treatment followed closely by the virus appearing in the US.
