The Nurses catching the disease did have direct contact with bodily fluids. Kind of hard to be more intimate than that.
Also, the Deputy does not have ebola and this was known as late as 5 days before this comment: http://www.cnn.com/2014/10/09/....
Methinks AC has not researched enough.
With the exception of Ms. Vinson's potential exposure to ~800 People, I'm not sure how You conclude "we aren't doing a great job at [containing Ebola in the U.S.]" Like Ms. Vinson, the only other two Individuals known to have contracted the disease were not adequately trained by the hospital in Texas. In fact, according to congressional testimony this week, They were not trained at all and the CDC had apparently informed the hospital not only did Workers need to be adequately trained but level 4 PPE was likely necessary, as opposed to the level 2 PPE used. Now, if by "we", You mean the Texas hospital, yes, I agree "we" aren't doing a great job at it. However, this point is not clear from Your statement.
Why isn't anyone blaming the administration? The people responsible for drawing up procedures, training their staff, monitoring operations, having the proper resources and facilities to get the job done, yeah those guys.
When did it become the administration's responsibility for all medical knowledge? The CDC is one of dozens, if not hundreds of medical organizations.
this is disregarding the two simultaneous cases we had last month in Atlanta.
I was "discounting" them due to the fact the infections not only occurred outside of the U.S. but the patients were specifically brought to the U.S. for treatment.
No, according to CNN, the 2nd Patient broke protocol. If One does not do what One is supposed to do, bad things can happen. So far, the disease has spread only thru the exact process which "they" have stated.
Let's see: total number of Ebola Patients in the U.S. is... 1. Mssr. Duncan is dead and cremated and no longer spreading the disease. So, the answer is "no".
Given the relative unreliability of polygraph tests, why would the FBI think using them is a good idea? Anyone willing to take one probably knows how to beat the exam.
At the point where the aspirin is going to make any difference, I am pretty sure other signs will act as a "give away", like diarrhea or bleeding or vomitting or general weakness and fatigue.

... So does breathing. What's the point?
... Has one of the largest observatories in the world. How is this news?

CDC has already apologized for blaming the victim.
Do You have a source?
Thus proving my point. There is no such thing as truly ideal conditions
Except that's not how your point came across; it came across as "these are conditions ideal enough; therefore, the disease should not have spread".
if your disease management program starts with assuming that things are ideal it is going to fail.
It's not clear this assumption was made.

It's just as likely aerosolized cough droplets, which is another thing the CDC insisted couldn't possibly happen.
When did the CDC say this? I know People have said the virus cannot become "airborne" but that's different than being shared via aerosolized droplets.
When it comes to a choice if blaming the victim or admitting that their protocol is woefully inadequate, the CDC seems to take the low road.
While I admit NBC has since changed its reporting on the issue I don't see any formal statements by Officials from the CDC "blaming the victim".
this is disregarding the two simultaneous cases we had last month in Atlanta.

Arth1 is right. This is what I meant.

Fairly ideal is not ideal. According to CNN, the 2nd Patient broke protocol. If One does not do what One is supposed to do, bad things can happen.
Note that this case is one of the 48 people who are currently being monitored due to contact with that ebola victim who brought it here from Africa.
While I agree We should not panic, this case is not 1 of the 48 according to NPR.
GP was answering OP's question. I see no error in GP's statement nor any need to qualify it.
Let's see: total number of Ebola Patients in the U.S. is ... 1. Mssr. Duncan is dead and cremated and no longer spreading the disease. So, the answer is "no".
This was exactly My thought at first.
Do You wear that klan hood in public or just masturbate with it?
According to NBC, this is exactly what appears to have happened.

You do realize socialism is an economic system and has nothing to do per se with so-called "political correctness", right?

Like frogs being slowly boiled to death, you just haven't noticed.
Yeah, no. That whole "Frogs can be boiled slowly" thing is thoroughly debunked. Source: http://www.snopes.com/critters...

The solution then is to make such behavior illegal, combined with heavy penalties.
