The current Ebola outbreak scaring medical professionals the world over and spreading at never-before-seen rates began as far back as January and has been blamed on the consumption of bat soup. “This is very different than any other outbreak historically," said Dr. Tom Geisbert, a professor of microbiology and immunology at UTMB, in an interview with CBS News. "(This outbreak) is very difficult to contain because it keeps popping up in different places. The other thing that concerns us is the number of health care workers that are being infected ... doctors or nurses. This is just crazy with the number of medical personnel getting infected." As one of the top experts on Ebola, Geisbert is quoted in several stories worldwide, including on MSN.com, Health.com, Philly.com, U.S. News & World Report and KTRK-TV (Houston).
