Ebola virus spreading out in Congo, horrible conditions

That is scary especially if that is airborne...people could get infected anywhere if that is not quarantined immediately.

Do you want to hear something really creepy? I heard a program once on the radio about the Ebola virus many years ago and this doctor, who just came back from there, said he just felt like this virus had an intelligence. Can you imagine? How creepy is that? He was there helping as much as he could and was there for years. He also said that this virus comes into the villages very quickly, infects the people that live there, and then LEAVES.....just like it knows what it is doing. In other words, it does its destruction and then runs away so it's not caught, and they find no more traces of it. Then eventually it moves on to another village and does the same thing throughout the jungles. I will never forget that interview and it still gives me the willy's. Just the thought, that something like this, has some sort of intelligence is too much to comprehend and it's just plain freaky.

I always wondered how the people pf Africa can endure som much pain and sufferage. If you have noticed, for years, one country or the other in that continet suffers from Nature's fury or man made catastrophes. Either war,poverty or floods keeps on hitting them hard one after the other. I hope atleast some time they would have respite from all these and have a bettere life like other parts of the world.

That is an alarming news then. I know Ebola is highly contagious and so far there is no known cure for this disease. The danger for this is when the virus starts to spread outside the borders of Congo. I hope they can contain this virus from within the country so we would not be having epidemic for this kind of disease.

It sounds very scary, very evil too. It seems like the ebola virus kills its victim at a super fast rate. I heard that the AIDS virus first appeared in Africa and I think ebola virus too started in Africa. Both of these diseases are deadly. There are no cures yet. But why Africa? Africa is Africa, not America. People there, I am sure do not take as much antibiotic as Americans do. I am sure natives there have their own ways of treating common sickness, which is usually through use of traditional herbs. So, there shouldn't be any super mutated virus. But this is just my two cents theory. I have never been to Africa but I know there are many places there people are still poor, can't afford to travel to see a proper doctor who is the one to dispense antibiotics to the sick. Can this be the work of evil people? I mean like some group of people, very evil and powerful, carry out a deadly mission by testing a new biological weapon, using virus, and they chose to do it in Africa.

I am not sure, if this is the latest news. I just only had known the previous one, the total outbreak of the place. Is it the second time outbreak? Thanks

I agree completely, especially if you know people have gone over there. I remember when I took a vacation to the Dominican. There was some outbreak (cant remember), its in their water. You shouldnt drink, or get the water in your mouth or eyes. Luckily noone I knew got infected, but its really scary and you worry about it the entire time.

It is really horrible and I hope that people in medical field will soon discover a vaccine for it. Furthermore, I hope they can find ways to cure the disease even if the person who was infected of it is in the worst stage. Honestly, at present I think the best thing we can do is to pray for mankind. And let us always take care of our environment in order for us to live in a healthier place. We must also have healthy lifestyle and proper exercise.
