Unfortunately, Ebola is far from the only disease that can do that. And also far from the only body part that this can happen. One woman contracted Ebola after having sex with a man who was cured of it...

In electronics, this is called a "test escape". Now we know that there are more tests needed before pronouncing someone "cured".


Yup. They are finding active disease in the semen of guys who had been 'cured' for six months. They are asking men in W. Africa to wear condoms. Yeah right.

Its going to be very difficult disease to eradicate this disease.

I was listening to the radio a couple of days ago. It was about patient zero of this outbreak. They traced it back to a village where some boys discovered a hollow tree that was full of bats. So they had a fun day killing a bunch of them. A couple of days later, one of the boys became sick and history was made.

But not in a good way.


I thought patient zero was a two year old. In any case, I think Ebola will be around for a long time.
