To be worried is dumb. Theres not even ONE case of it in the us.. And people who come from those places where its an epidemic are in quarantine and (now) thoroughly checked out.. Its just extra stress you dont need.. Sorry.

No reason for you to worry.  Like stated above its only passed through bodily fluids. And I saw on CNN that the last case of Ebola has been cured and now there are no cases so why worry?

I m worried I  general about having my baby in the hospital because there is all sorts of stuff in there... I might have to share a room with a stranger if the hospital is too busy. Which to me doesn't sound great especially since I'm having a c section and will be in the hospital for several days...if don't want me son to be exposed to so many strangers...

There isn't a single active case in the United States. It isn't airborne and there are massive efforts in place to control the outbreak in western Africa. Only one person has died from the disease in the US and only because he was too afraid to go in for treatment until it was too late. Not even the family he was living with while he was sick contracted the disease.
No, I'm not worried.

It's not airborne you can only get it through bodily fluids I wouldn't worry you have the same chance of get aids as Ebola so I wouldn't worry and stress more than you need to
