Alright let's talk about ebola. *LOCK IF NEEDED*

What's ebola?

Ebola is a virus disease.
Ebola is a disease of humans and other primates caused by ebolaviruses. Signs and symptoms typically start between two days and three weeks after contracting the virus, with a fever, sore throat, muscle pain and headaches. Then, vomiting, diarrhea and rash usually follows, along with decreased function of the liver and kidneys. At this time, generally, some people begin to bleed both internally and externally.[1] Death, if it occurs, is typically six to sixteen days after symptoms appear and is often due to low blood pressure from fluid loss.

Damn it's scary.
I wish ebola doesn't spread here (though there's a higher chance)

=]] ! Lol : "ebola" !

Guys. There is a cure
These sites helps a bit but it's old.

There's supposedly people in the hospital in Seatle with Ebola, but the news hasn't been talking about it, idk if it's intentional or if that there just arn't people there. I know the police arn't allowed to say "Ebola" over radio, something about to prevent panic. Apparently they say this code but I forgot what the code thing is.

Edit: apparently it was firefighters, not police sorry

Guys, you don't have to worry about it. Just don't touch the one who has Ebola and you'll be fine!

Bola is ball in malay

Please just watch this and listen to it's words and realise there is literally nothing to worry about.
I don't normally cite Fox News but this is more a single reporter than the organization in general.

What about enterovirusd68?

That video still kind of panicked me
What the reporter said is great but
Ebola came to freaking Manhattan

ebola has been around since the 1970s why are we all so panicky now

god, d68 (or was it 86? i'm too tired rn) is a bit scary. i read on some kid getting pinkeye, then he died in his sleep cause of it. i'm more worried about that than ebola, to be honest. i mean, there's already vaccines for it, and there's this hospital in washington dc (i think) that's way better than the one in dallas, texas.

sudden outbreak
but yeah, you kind of have a point. if someone made a magical vaccine then, it wouldn't be happening now.

Probably because scientists are talking about some solutions to avoid the disease, and where the parasites could survive. I'm getting a bit distraught on how my classmates are joking about it, even though it's a serious problem.

Scientists have found a way to prevent it in certain regions, by using light amounts of DDT on the environment. I honestly don't like the idea of animals dying because of it, but I won't disagree with an expert.

Oh my god you missed the entire point. Unless you COME IN CONTACT WITH SOMEONE AT THEIR MOST INFECTIOUS, you will be FINE.

I hope you get as distraught when your friends joke about suicide and rape too.
Your answer doesn't resolve Ros's question at all and it's one I wonder as well. Why just now do something when ebola has been an issue for quite a time?

yes exactly

i'm pretty sure the only ways ebola can spread is if for whatever reason you're touching body fluids of the person who has it
[size=5]or by sexual intercourse

It was a "why are we?", not "we're" in a manner that Rosuuri is also panicking.
