Bloodlines and Ebola and Halloween?

Is it just me or is there something creepy about the thought of Kent Brantly giving his ebola immune blood to 3 other people after first having himself received blood from a young Ebola patient (under his care) ?? It sounds slightly satanic ritual-ish to me...a true BLOODLINE...or are those in charge trying to hint at something other than Ebola, the systematic transfer of blood (for whatever reason)? In the run-up to Halloween could it get any more gory...the hideous nature of death brought about by the ebola virus, the kid dressed as a Zombie getting run down in a cornfield and now vampiric overtones...
At least there is the wonderfully named Camellia Fountain to sweeten things up. She works at Providence hospital and likes to watch TRUEBLOOD.
