Cuz we’re so very much on the crosshairs. It’s in Brazil already. It won’t be long till we see it here.
I, for one, can’t wait to bleed from all my orifices.
Ok, then relief is coming our way!
From my understanding, even if it does arrive here it would not spread like it is at these other locations since it has a lot to do with sanitation. Since it is only spread through direct contact it would be much harder in our area because we don’t really interact with people like that plus most of us wash hands throughout the day and take daily showers. The locations it thrives in do not have that sadly.
Ebola is effectively controlled by traditional quarantine measures if enacted in time. Because it spreads by bodily fluids it is much easier to control. It’s extremely deadly but luckily transmits slowly and locally.
It’s been a terrifying but local disease to sub-saraha Africa for decades.
Yeah, I went from thinking the Liberia/Sierra Leone/Guinea outbreak was going to be the big one, to seeing that US case only spread to a couple nurses that cared for him, despite him being sent home after going to the hospital with symptoms and stopped being worried. The fact that no one else got exposed enough to show symptoms, including triage nurses that had no idea he had ebola, told me it wasn’t going to spread as easily in the west.
I’m wondering at this point if the outbreaks are mostly due to funeral customs that involve a lot of close contact with the body of the deceased.
Ebola is not the virus the US media loves to generate clicks on. It’s a disease of poverty, poor infrastructure and ignorance. Most of it is spread because people in this region believe witchcraft causes disease and they will go to healers and churches before real doctors and hospitals.
Wait until RFK Jr hears it. mRNA evil and bad…
