There is no known cure if you get it and you only have a 10% chance to live.  FREETOWN, July 29 (Reuters) - The doctor leading Sierra Leone's fight against the worst Ebola outbreak on record died from the virus on Tuesday, the country's chief medical officer said. The death of Sheik Umar Khan, who was credited with treating more than 100 patients, follows the deaths of dozens of local health workers and the infection of two American medics in neighboring Liberia, highlighting the dangers faced by staff trying to halt the disease's spread across West Africa. Ebola is believed to have killed 672 people in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone since the outbreak began in February, according to the World Health Organization. The contagious disease, which has no known cure, has symptoms that include vomiting, diarrhea and internal and external bleeding. The 39-year-old Khan, hailed as a "national hero" by the Health Ministry, had been moved to a treatment ward run by the medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres in the far north of Sierra Leone. He died on Tuesday afternoon, less than a week after his diagnosis was announced, and on the same day that President Ernest Bai Koroma was due to visit his treatment center in the northeastern town of Kailahun. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/29/ebola-doctor-dead-sheik-umar-khan_n_5630878.html  Pictured, Liberian health workers bury a woman who died of the disease     Ebola infection.

Ebola is somewhat hard to pass, especially when proper precautions are taken. I'm guessing she got a little lax with her precautions.

According to some foreign borne cunt on O' Reilly Factor last night, Ebola is not a problem. No one dies from Ebola. Dumb cunt.

SHUT. DOWN. EVERYTHING.
Or throw the door wide open at the southern border. That'll probably be fine, too. |

Could doctors working in field environments, under stress, long hours, with a native population that doesn't practice basic sanitation, etc...contribute to a break in or exploit a weakness in the precaution protocols, a far more likely scenario. |

They are all suited up and are sitting in traffic. Imagine what the people sitting next to them at the stop light must think when they look over and see these guys fully suited up.

Is this virus changing in a way that no one had previously noticed or anticipated? Not like they never do that. If Ebola ever does become much more easily transmitted (or already has), we are in deep doo-doo. |

This. In the book "the hot zone" the nuns that were "helping" people actually contributed to the spread of disease. It's kind of easy, after awhile, to get slack in precaution protocol. In normal diseases (TB, ect) you might can get away with that a time or two. You can't really with ebola. I'm a microbiologist and yesterday one of my coworkers came in absolutely hysterical about the ebola pt in Atlanta.  She was letting us all know she wasn't coming to work if ebola came to savannah. I said I wasn't coming to work if there were riots. I think my scenario is more realistic. I guess I'm the only one that would be kind of exited if we got an ebola patient. |
