re: confirmed ebola in NYC.

It continues to baffle me that a supposedly highly trained medical professional -in this case a Dr. Without Borders volunteer returning from the very thick of the African pandemic- just runs through one of the most populous cities in the world, sticking his nose-picked fingers into bowling balls like it's no big deal.

Same with the nurse just up and jumping on crowded, confined-space airplanes after slopping through an Ebola patient's effluents.

I mean, OK, so catching Ebola requires some sort of exchange of bodily fluids. But why would folks who are medically trained and have been in DIRECT contact with this crap insist upon proceeding as if perfectly normal?

Seems like cavalier behavior to me.
