    The impact on the eye is like something out of crappy sci-fi movie.

    ....................................

    Ebola 'lives on in eye of US survivor' - BBC News
    The Ebola virus has been detected in the eye of a US doctor who had already recovered from the illness.

    The medic, who caught the bug while working in Sierra Leone, had blurred eyesight and pain two months after being declared Ebola-free.

    Scientists say his eye infection presents no risk to the public.

    But reporting in the New England Journal of Medicine they warn that research is needed to see if Ebola can also linger in other parts of the body.

    No doubt in my mind. After all they had the same line of lies about AIDS.

    "But reporting in the New England Journal of Medicine they warn that research is needed to see if Ebola can also linger in other parts of the body."

    WHAT! They already know it does and have reported so.

    PC!

    EDIT, Sorry no ref site but I'll tell you it stays dormant in men's sperm for at least two weeks.

    Kinda funny that when they try to avoid mass panic over Ebola, all they end up doing is proving they don't really know what they're talking about. And we're supposed to take their word that we're safe.

    How many times have you heard that "wine" is good for you, so says some Yahoo outfit.... Then a few months later you hear another report by some "Talking Head" that says "Wine" is Bad for you.... Then you change "Wine" for "Salt" or "Cooking OIl" or another thing maybe you have never heard of... and it goes On and On, first One Way, then Back the other Way... Why can't all these Yahoos Just shut the F**k UP, and let us just Die the way we want to...... Ok, Rant Off.....
