This little "BLEACH" meme gag?
It isn't funny at ALL. What it IS is irresponsible.
MODERATORS, PLEASE TAKE IT DOWN.
People who are afraid, sometimes do rash things... believing this horses**t might be one of them.

lol calm your boobs bro. I don't think anybody is dull enough to actually take this seriously. And if they are, well, that's Darwinism.
It is this person's opinion that the virus is, and has been, transmissible prior to onset of symptoms.

I foresee it going airborne in the not so distant future.
(9/4/14) COULD BLOOD FROM EBOLA SURVIVORS HELP PATIENTS?

As far as I'm concerned....we're already there.

Ebola is too heavy to be airborne. It's a physical impossibility. It is just as likely that Ebola will mutate to become completely harmless.

Also..the OP is confusing to me. I must be missing something or the OP edited something out since I don't see anything about "insider information about Ebola" in the OP.
Ebola virus is one of the most virulent pathogens, killing a very high proportion of patients within 5–7 days. Two outbreaks of fulminating haemorrhagic fever occurred in northern Gabon in 1996, with a 70% case-fatality rate. During both outbreaks we identified some individuals in direct contact with sick patients who never developed symptoms. We aimed to determine whether these individuals were indeed infected with Ebola virus, and how they maintained asymptomatic status.
This study showed that asymptomatic, replicative Ebola infection can and does occur in human beings. The lack of genetic differences between symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals suggest that asymptomatic Ebola infection did not result from viral mutations. Elucidation of the factors related to the genesis of the strong inflammatory response occurring early during the infectious process in these asymptomatic individuals could increase our understanding of the disease.
...
These findings show that some individuals were infected with the virus without developing symptoms. Results from previous outbreaks had only indicated that such an asymptomatic infection was possible.
He looked at me with a somewhat blank look on his face, and then said, "not a bit." Granted he is a specialist in utritional health and food safety, but I (navely?) expected that all counties in Texas would provide any and all departments remotely related to health and safety updated information and protocols. Even just a bulletin or something. Nope.
