Don't mean to argue the pt to death but didn't Ebola Reston, the
airborne strain, infect either one or two of the people working in the
monkey facility. If I recall properly, it wasn't fatal or serious, just
caused headaches and some nosebleeds.
If anyone can confirm or add to my sketchy memory please do.
As of 5/11/95 Boston Globe where the story was buried on page 5 or so.
There have been 10 deaths in a city 60 miles to the west of Kikwit,
reported by Drs. w/o Borders. Two people who had been in Kikwit for one
of the nuns funerals are now under observation in Italy.
Wonder how many other people have left the area.........
