You Can Get Ebola From Doorknobs

According to the CDC @ http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/pdf/infections-spread-by-air-or-droplets.pdf or at http://www.naturalnews.com/files/infections-spread-by-air-or-droplets.pdf in case the CDC scrubs their website.


In other words, they've been lying to us!


Ebola is spread through droplets is what they should've told us all along. And the surfaces can remain infected for 50 days! The CDC also said that a sneeze only travels 3 feet while MIT says it's 20 feet.


Does this surprise anybody that the government organization tasked with keeping Americans safe from communicable diseases has been lying to us? And, for all you liberals who are going to attack the referenced website – READ THE LINKS!

So who has gotten Ebola from door knobs?

People that stick them up their butt?

There have been exactly two people in the United States who have contracted Ebola here- both nurses with lots of patient content and exposed to blood, feces, urine and who knows what else.

Where are the people who have contracted Ebola from door knobs?

How does that have anything to do with the FACT that it can happen?

If it hasn't happened- then it is not a fact that it can happen- it is at best- a theory.

Why do you suppose it hasn't happened?

No- nowhere in the link you provided does the CDC say that you can get Ebola from doorknobs.

Quoting from your link:

Can Ebola be spread by coughing or sneezing?
There is no evidence that Ebola is spread by coughing or sneezing. Ebola is transmitted
through direct contact with the blood or body fluids of a person who is sick with Ebola;
the virus is not transmitted through the air (like measles virus). However, large droplets
(splashes or sprays) of respiratory or other secretions from a person who is sick with Ebola
could be infectious, and therefore certain precautions (called standard, contact, and droplet
precautions) are recommended for use in healthcare settings to prevent the transmission of
Ebola from patients to healthcare personnel and other patients or family members.
Is Ebola spread through droplets?

To get Ebola, you have to directly get body fluids (blood, diarrhea, sweat, vomit, urine, semen,
breast milk) from someone who is sick with Ebola in your mouth, nose, eyes or through
a break in your skin or through sexual contact. That can happen by being splashed with
droplets, or through other direct contact, like touching infectious body fluids.
Healthcare providers caring for Ebola patients and the family and friends in close contact
with Ebola patients are at the highest risk of getting sick when they touch or are splashed by
infectious blood or body fluids from a sick patient.

How do I protect myself from getting sick?
y Wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and
water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
y Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
y Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs
spread this way.
y Routinely clean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces
like bathroom surfaces, since some germs can stay infectious
on surfaces for hours or days and lead to transmission.

It hasn't happened because it would be very, very difficult for Ebola to spread that way.

People generally don't smear blood or feces or urine or semen on door knobs.

When did Conservatives become such whiny cowards?

Seriously- if it isn't them being terrified by 12 year olds coming accross the border, they are terrified by Ebola, even as they refuse to get flu vaccines.....

I don't know about that but I did read where there is a new disease called Hearing AIDS. You get it from listening to assholes.

No, it is spread by lying hacks who will risk the public health over an election and that spells DEMONcrat.

How is spreading valid and accurate data 'hysteria'?

Leave it to a libtard to make objective fact = hysteria.

 

[JimBowie1958]

It hasn't happened because it would be very, very difficult for Ebola to spread that way.

1. You do not KNOW that it hasn't happened. Plenty of deaths in Africa still to be explained.

2. You have no data to support that claim that it is 'very difficult' to spread Ebola that way. And very difficult compared to what? Sneezing in your face? Sneezing or sweating into cabs?

Your anti-hysteria hysteria is making you confused and nonsensical.

People generally don't smear blood or feces or urine or semen on door knobs.

Wow, you are very special. When most people sneeze or cough they leave saliva on things, not blood or feces or urine or semen.

Feel free then to point to any cases which have been contracted that through a door knob.

The OP claimed that the CDC said that you can get Ebola from door knobs.

But the citation he provided said no such thing.

Hardly valid and accurate data.

The OP didn't actually quote the CDC article- instead going for hysterical hyperbole- once again- what the CDC actually said:
