Sorry man... Suffice it to say, I'm in DFW in the midst of all the irrational hysteria & the shit is really annoying, especially with idiots around the country all of sudden crying to let Texas secceed from the Union over this like we're Florida or something...

Definitely not airborne, bro. The virus lacks the proteins neccessary to allow it you survive outside of a body long enough to be transmitted that way. The majority of airborne virus' travel through the air & latch onto your lungs, spreading out from there. If you read up on Ebola's symptoms, the lungs/respiratory system are one of the few bodily systems not effected much.
