Ebola has never been the global threat it has been made out to be.  It can be controlled by simple sanitation and common sense (i.e. avoid contact with bodily fluids emanating from people with active cases of Ebola).  This was demonstrated by the fact that when the virus was introduced in the U.S. it didn&#x27;t spread.  For Ebola to spread requires some pretty abominably lax public sanitation practices.  Having a vaccine in hand is just a bonus.<p>Oh, there&#x27;s also probably a treatment for ebola if someone can be bothered to do the study: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.rongarret.info&#x2F;2014&#x2F;12&#x2F;the-cure-for-ebola.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.rongarret.info&#x2F;2014&#x2F;12&#x2F;the-cure-for-ebola.html</a>
