As the death toll from Ebola reaches 3,800, experts are warning that the virus could mutate and become airborne, meaning that it could be caught by breathing it in.

The public is being told by health officials that the virus that causes Ebola cannot be transmitted through the air and can only be spread through direct contact with bodily fluids – blood, sweat, vomit, feces, urine, saliva or semen – of an infected person who is showing symptoms.

However, several leading Ebola researchers claim that the virus mutating and spreading through the air should not be ruled out.

I honestly think that the news is just over-exaggerating just a tad to instill fear amongst the population.
