Can the common house fly carry the ebola virus?

No...it's got to be DIRECT contact with bodily fluid of another person. Kind of like AIDS. Also Ebola outbreaks are usually very sudden and die down quickly also, I wouldn't worry about it.

yes it could carry the Ebola virus...but u have nothing to worry about... there have been no fatal cases or epidemics in the U.S. and the Ebola virus can only be spread through the blood of an infected specimen... if your interested in the virus read "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston
