Apparently you want to talk about Ebola instead of AIDS. That's your privilege. Maybe W can come up with some moral crusade against it that you'll find philosophically appealing.

<<We DO KNOW that the Ebola virus was transmitted as an air-born virus in primates. >>

I watched a program on exotic viruses on A&E. In a research lab in Virginia someone opened the wrong bottle and the smell of garlic filled the room. The virus had two forms, one traveled by air and the other didn't. Just in case they sealed the building. It was the "best" virus and no one got sick but the building is still sealed.

They also mentioned one strain of an Ebola like virus that if an infected person walked through a restaurant, look for 60% dead in a week.
