Stern, a notorious germophobe, chatted with a fellow germophobe who called in to ask about that whole Ebola thing.

"I'm freaked out by our government's response, and I'm freaked out by Ebola," Stern said.

"We have a government that's really confused by this." He talked about how it seemed like our government can't come out with a good procedure for how to handle the outbreak, and that's where the real worry comes in.

Following up on his promise from Monday morning to get Ebola on the phone, "Ebola" called in to share it's thoughts with Stern.

Ebola--who does a very good impression of Dice Clay--said he is just like the Jay Leno of viruses.

"Just when you think I'm gone, I come right back." Ebola is also, allegedly, of Italian decent, and thinks the new slogan for New York City should be "I Love Diarrhea."

Ebola has been the topic of the last few months, and this isn't the first time Stern has expressed his opinion on the East African disease.

A few weeks ago, Stern lamented that "we're all going to die." Stern isn't too optimistic about humanity's fate at this time.

All in due time. This recent hype is probably due to the Ebola patient in Stern's own neighborhood. The NYC Ebola patient is currently hospitalized at Bellevue Hospital, and is in serious but stable condition.
