NY is prepared. He was quarantined appropriately, there is little to no risk to anyone other than him.
We all need to educate ourselves about EBOLA, knowing even the basics would prevent the hysteria. I assure you New Yorkers are going about their business....
Contagiousness is when the viral load is heavier than what this dr had.
I think we can all learn from Mr. Duncan who passed away, none of his many family or friends that were quarantined became infected, even when they laid beside him when his viral load was low/but contagious. We need to be aware and take all precautions just as we learned with H1N1 and Birdflu and Swineflu etc.,
