Thanks for making sub-threads on this topic, Martin. I'll try to post accordingly.

Amid the hubbub, I must take a moment to say this: I'm grateful that the folks here at ETS are more measured in their approach to this developing situation compared to those on other forums; hopefully the new threads will help those who are seeking up-to-date, reliable information.

In this day and age of instant communication via social media, it's vital that people remember that they need to discern what is known, and what is speculation. While a disease like Ebola is very frightening and indeed a true threat, spreading unsubstantiated rumors or links from conspiracy websites will only worsen the situation.
