My Bottom line - keep your hands away from your mucous membranes - wash your hands with antiviral stuff (whatever that might be) - strengthen your immune system
Note - IIRC someone had a theory that HIV spread under fingernails ========================================== from a comment to a clipboard guy story Reply · · 49 minutes ago Erin Schmidt · Top Commenter · Attorney at Bevan & Associates (Kaitlynn Andrews) spread via contact of bodily fluids to abrasions, open wounds, or mucus membranes (eyes, mouth, nose) So unless you have open cuts or abrasions on your hands when you touch the door, you have not yet contracted Ebola. Further, it does not live very long outside the body (maybe a couple of hours) and there is some evidence that the amount of virus found in things like mucus or saliva is much less then in blood or diarrhea, which again decreases the likelihood of exposure to sneezing or coughing (plus they aren't symptoms of the disease). >From news reports, almost all exposures have come from either direct contact with the individual OR from people exposed to vomit, blood, diarrhea from a person with Ebola. None so far being transmitted via doorhandles. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
