It is a virus that is transmitted through contact with infected fluids. Don't have unprotected sex with a liberian hooker or handle in bodily fluids you have nothing to worry about.
You describe Ebola like AIDS, but we know that it's a lot more contagious than AIDS because doctors and nurses are getting Ebola but you never hear of them catching AIDS, despite the fact that we have millions of people walking around with it. Doctors who treat AIDS patients only wear a mask, gloves and goggles, but doctors who treat Ebola patients wear space suits.

the person I directed that to is not a doctor and is not dealing with sick ebola patients.
ETA; I am not making a joke of ebola (because it is serious if you catch it) but some of yall are running around thinking this is the 2nd coming of the plague.
