This is from the Morgellons.org website you linked. It is the biography posting of one of the medical researchers. In his biography he speaks to the contagiousness of the disease and the fact that it seems to have global roots...

“I’m a physician with varied backgrounds… Bachelor’s Degree in Astronautical Engineering from the USAF Academy, Masters Degrees in Public Health and Electrical Engineering, an MD from Case Western Reserve University.

I’m Board Certified in Aerospace Medicine and Board Eligible in Emergency Medicine…a 23-year career in the US Air Force, much of which was in space science, space medicine and space medicine research at the School of Aerospace medicine, Brooks AFB….Medical Director for the Space Station Program for Lockheed Corporation, then for Wyle Life Sciences at Johnson Space center. …solving medical problems in spaceflight where no knowledge or texts existed before has been my career.

The Morgellon’s phenomenon is real. It is also clearly devastating, life-shortening, and infectious. I have observed the herald lesions microscopically with their central fibers in dozens of patients. Virtually all have lost both income and medical insurance, and are now a significant drain on the medical system, the federal budget and their immediate social system.

…international link up with physicians in Europe and most other English speaking countries has resulted in a crescendo in awareness of the illness, and collection of large amounts of publishable data. Tragically, the roots of the illness now appear to be global….”

- William T. Harvey, MD, MS, MPH San Antonio, Texas

Sorry, I confused contagious with infectious when reading the above bio. I have not found where they state it is contagious as someone mentioned.

" The Morgellon’s phenomenon is real."

No it's not, it's some kind of hoax. The composition and structural morphology of the fibers is conspicuously absent. It doesn't take much to obtain that info and that info is fundamentally important. The fibers themselves appear to be simply stuck externally to the lesions. Also, it's remarkable that pics of unidsturbed lesions are available. Given the desription of the itchy crawly nature of the disease, I would expect severe excoriations.
