Ebola

AIDS has not been so effective, so Mother Nature came up with Ebola. #SUSTAINABLE
 
There is a system of actions and reactions, or consequences, even if it is not very clear to us. This virus apparently has something to do with primitive practices of eating monkeys and bats. Same here with us too, what we eat will eventually have some effect.
Ebola virus was in the news a while ago, like 5 years ago? It did not spread much, this time it seems it is spreading more - which is probably bad news for us here, i don't know that SA Dept of Health and Home Affairs would be competent...hopefully they copy what Asian and European countries have done.

PS: i read a news report few days ago, some foreign aid/WHO workers were attacked and killed that side.

On the plane back from Istanbul we were given a form with a lot of tick boxes opposite symptoms to complete. On landing in SA no one asked for or collected the forms.

So who stops the people who are first port of call? Who stops the government employee who comes into contact with an infected person. So he can now take it home to his family and community?

Has nobody played or watched Resident Evil!

The Spanish health minister has confirmed that a nurse who treated a victim of Ebola in Madrid has tested positive for the disease.

The nurse is said to be the first person in the current outbreak known to have contracted Ebola outside Africa.

Health Minister Ana Mato said the woman was part of the team that treated Spanish priest Manuel Garcia Viejo, who died of the virus on 25 September.

Some 3,400 people have died in the outbreak - mostly in West Africa.

The Spanish nurse is in a stable condition, Reuters quoted health officials as saying. She started to feel ill last week when she was on holiday.

The nurse was admitted to hospital in Alcorcon, near Madrid, on Monday morning with a high fever, Ms Mato said.

Doctors isolated the emergency treatment room.

The infection was confirmed by two tests, the minister said.
 
I've been reading reports that this little bug is airborne already, maybe just conspiracy theories, maybe misinformation... who knows. And, the dead walk again.... keep your batteries charged people!
 
No guys this is hectic stuff. There is no control at all. No planes should be allowed to go to western african till this is outbreak is under control. But then again, they will still drive down.

I am just terrified

Hey everyone I by profession have obvious interests in the latest epidemic. Came across this, its a bit of more raw information than what is being punted in the media. I am hesitant to publicly comment on the contents but for anyone with the knowledge its worth a read. Things are indeed getting interesting:

I don't really understand much of this, but looks to me like it boils down to 'we are in the merde if we don't contain this soon'...
