As far as the airborne part, I sure hope not as there is no way Rick and Shane wouldn't be infected now. Escpecially Rick after pulling that dead zombie onto himself as well as the 3 zombies he blew away when they were standing over him.

I mean honestly, at this point they are barely doing anything to keep zombie fluids off of them. In the first season when they hacked up that zombie for camoflauge, they were very careful not to get any fluids on them. This season we have seen people yanking arrows out of walkers and wiping the blood off on their pants or doing disections only wearing gloves, getting covered in blood when they open up with firearms. Certainly no where near the level of care as the first season. Only thing I can think of is the guy from the CDC in s01 told Rick something about how it transmits. Like possibly they are all already infected but that makes no sense.
If they think they have some slow degeneration caused by the virus, it may be the right motivation to get them off the farm and looking towards some place that might have a cure again. I don't know how the whole Walking Dead universe goes, but it seems like groups are so alienated from each other that without any communications infrastructure they would have a hard time knowing what it is happening out there and they need to start moving again.

I'd like to understand why they think they are better off in a small group instead of pooling resources with others who are in the same boat as them. Aside from being able to stay alive, there is no real... skill or talent in the group to do anything better than what they are doing now.
