I attended an Ebola briefing today with presentations by top public health officials.
6 main talking points:
Ebolavirus is not airborne transmissible.
Ebolavirus is not airborne transmissible.
Ebolavirus is nor airborne transmissible!
If you're not symptomatic, you're not contagious.
If you're not symptomatic, you're not contagious!
If you're not symptomatic, you're not contagious!!
OK? That's the messages our scientists are delivering to Government, and, Government is listening. The Minister announced that we would not, repeat NOT, isolate people who are asymptomatic, regardless of their travel and exposure history.
Our Government thankfully respects sound science.
