According to the LA Times report, Ebola experts are not sure on whether the physical contacts are the only medium for virus to be transmitted.

They said that it may be possible that the disease start spreading itself via the air (coughing and sneezing) – as the number of Ebola patients are increasing day by day on large scale.
