COBs...what do you think about the handling of the Ebola outbreak

[richardgecko]

...in comparison to how HIV/AIDS was handled when it first hit the scene?

I'm far too young to remember it, but I'd love to hear your input, oh wise ones.

.... although my understanding is that Ebola can be found in semen (and other body fluids) once the person's symptoms appear.

Even after recovery, the virus can still be present in semen for several weeks after & the pt has to abstain or risk infecting his partner.
