That put others at risk ?

DO know, you are NOT contagious until symptoms start, at which time he got help.

Try to keep the hysteria out,  it takes CONTACT of bodily fluids, almost impossible in general public unless he directly vomited on you !

 

Yes it takes body fluids, but sweat, or a sneeze will spread it too.  Plus, if what I've read is accurate, the virus can live up to 24 hours on a surface. 

So,,,,, lets put this in a possible scenario.....  Person gets Ebola, doesn't feel bad, doesn't know he has a fever, but is sweating.  This contains the virus and you get it on you, it enters through that little scratch on your hand.  IMHO that's not 'hard to catch'.
