Potential super-carriers? If a caregiver comes into contact with body fluid of a person that is infected but asymptomatic, the virus is in the fluids. The virus isnt magic. The CDC stance that they have to have symptoms to be contagious is ridiculous. What if these people gave blood? Dont say it cant happen because many people were infected with HEP C and HIV through blood and blood products. Here is the smoking gun, the unknown pool or reservoir that they cant seem to find. Read the article, form an opinion. Dont let me or anybody else do your thinking. People can have the disease and have NO symptoms., hence carriers. Evidence suggests that many Ebola infections are asymptomatic,1, 2 a factor overlooked by recent outbreak summaries and projections.3 Particularly, results from one post-Ebola outbreak serosurvey1 showed that 71% of seropositive individuals did not have the disease; another study2 reported that 46% of asymptomatic close contacts of patients with Ebola were seropositive. Although asymptomatic infections are unlikely to be infectious,2 they might confer protective immunity and thus have important epidemiological consequences.
