What the CDC is saying about Ebola is an absolute lie, the guy that came out and spoke to America said that Ebola cannot be spread during the incubation period THEN he said that what they were going to do now was find out who was in contact with the man (after) he showed symptoms and MONITOR those people during the incubation period----tell me why you would monitor them, which ACTUALLY means quarantine, if they were not contagious? ......I have copy/pasted below what it says on a reputable website and I have given you the link BUT understand my mom (an ER nurse for over 20 yrs and a Chief Nursing Officer for over 10 yrs) has been researching this since yesterday and found many websites that say this HOWEVER they have all disappeared this morning EXCEPT this one ...and we were having trouble getting this ....it kept coming up This page cannot be displayed so go here fast to verify.....
