Did CDC Just Admit Ebola Has Gone Airborne?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Ethan A. Huff

(NaturalNews) The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently updated its Case Definition for Ebola Virus Disease (EVD), which outlines the official surveillance standards for identifying those at risk of contracting and spreading Ebola infection. In this update, the CDC quietly admits that Ebola can spread through the air, a move that greatly expands the number of persons who may be subject to mandatory quarantine.

Previously, the health agency identified a fever equal or greater than 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit, along with a list of other common symptoms, as the main criteria for identifying a “Person Under Investigation” (PUI). Other epidemiological risk factors encountered in the 21 days prior to symptom onset, such as direct contract with blood or other body fluids, are also listed as proper criteria for identifying a PUI.

But in its most recent update, the CDC scrapped the specific fever criteria entirely and replaced it with more general criteria of “Elevated body temperature or subjective fever or symptoms.” The agency also added the word “fatigue” to the Case Definition, which subjectively adds millions of ordinary Americans to the official pool of those suspected of possibly having Ebola.

The new CDC Case Definition reads:

A person who has both consistent signs or symptoms and risk factors as follows:

 

  1. Elevated body temperature or subjective fever or symptoms, including severe headache, fatigue, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or unexplained hemorrhage…

 

If you were in ‘brief proximity’ of Ebola victim with no touching, you are still at risk

In defining “epidemiologic risk factors,” which include more PUI criteria, the CDC refers inquirers to a separate agency page that outlines these risk factors based on their likelihood. In the high-risk category, the usual suspects such as touching contaminated blood or saliva are included, along with direct contact with a dead body.
