One scientist and possibly a dozen others may have been exposed to the Ebola virus at a lab in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, The Washington Post and The New York Times reported Wednesday.
The Post said the possible exposure took place when scientists conducting research were transporting the virus.
The technician had no symptoms of illness and is being monitored, the paper said. An agency spokeswoman says the number of exposures could be less than a dozen.

Does no one else find it odd that we have heard nothing at all on the MSM about Ebola in about 2 months, even though it is still raging at a worse rate than before in Africa?
Somebody got told to shut up, obviously.
From what I understand, the disease is still spreading at about the same rate as it was a few months ago...the good news is that it hasn't spread exponentially...initial projections by the WHO were indicating a possible infection tally of between 500-650K by the first of the year.
But, the WHO didn't meet any of their own change-of-year quotas. That is, they haven't gotten anywhere in containment. They aren't beating it, but rather simply going through the cycle of disease at a non-exponential rate.
All of the previously hashed-out doomsday travel scenarios (etcetera) are all still possible.

I totally agree.
The last data I looked at showed pretty remarkable drops in new cases everywhere but for PARTS of Liberia that were more remote.
