If nurses in a hospital setting can get it, then anybody can.
Because nurses are exposed tenfold to this kind of shit compared to the general public?
A hospital setting is the easiest place to catch something boss.

Indeed. You know the easiest place to catch a cold or the flu? In the waiting room at the doctor if you're there with a child or significant other that you've taken for a visit.
Protip: Despite precautions taken, hospitals and doctor's offices are full of sick people.
Just watch this -- this is the real facts on Ebola, Shep Smith of Fox News sets it straight and basically stamps down on all the media grandstanding and fear mongering. It's a 4min piece and really worth it, if you hate Fox just ignore that for a moment and listen. He throws fear mongerers, politicians fearing on people and the rest under the bus.
There are 317 million people estimated to live in America. Only 3 of them have ebola. Your chances of winning the lottery jackpot are roughly one in 18 million. If ebola was handed out at random you would still have a far better chance of winning the lottery than you would of catching ebola. In fact, since ebola is not handed out at random and you probably are not in the direct vicinity of anyone with ebola since they are dead or quarantined, you have an even better chance of not catching ebola.

I have no love for the network but Shepard Smith is one of the few actual journalists at FOX News.
