Ebola: Silverware, Toilets, Clothes to Be Removed From Ebola Patient's Apartment

What have I been telling you?  Ebola stays alive on contaminated objects and can be contracted from those contaminated objects the same way Community Associated MRSA can be contracted from contaminated objects.

More contaminated Ebola objects are now expected to be removed from the Ebola-infected patient's apartment in Texas.  Hazmat crews have reportedly already removed contaminated sheets and towels from the apartment.

The quarantined family has been moved to a private home.  But if this infected person threw up into the toilets for days, was that flushed into the sewage system?  Wouldn't that be treated with chlorine?

Ebola can't be spread through the air.  But, a sneeze or cough from an infected Ebola patient counts as spraying bodily fluids onto objects.  Even if an infected person coughs into his hand and then touches a railing, well... think about what you're touching in public places.  This isn't panicking, this is being proactive and smart about your own health.

I feel very sorry for this family - just look at these pictures from the Daily Mail.

If CNN is accurate, then the family has already been relocated to a private home in the Dallas area.
