Yes Badboy and spreading to other Countries , it would appear the WHO can barely cope.

I HAVE JUST READ AN ARTICLE ABOUT TWO DIFFERENT HAEMORRHAGIC FEVERS (KFD )WHICH IS IN KARNATKA HAS SPREAD,ORIGIN BELIEVED TO BE TICKS,ANOTHER RELATED WHICH APPEARED IN WESTERN SAUDI ARABIA AND HAS NOW SPREAD TO EGYPT.
I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT THAT AS MECCA WAS ONE OF THE AREAS,MUSLIM PILGRIMS COULD POTENTIALLY SPREAD IT AROUND THE WORLD.
I AM NOT PREJUCED SAYING THIS.

964 is the latest number of people infected .

IF A PROSTITUE WAS INFECTED,EXPECT IT TO GO ALL OVER THE PLACE.

I thought infection was caused by coughing Badboy, not touch?

BODILY FLUIDS,SO SEX IS A POSSIBLE MEANS OF TRANSMISSION.

Bodily fluids eh? How did the Nurse working in a Hospital get infected then........... it has gone from Country to Country which is cause for concern

Sweat and saliva Iris, even animals,

Why the sarcasm, then? Don't you think that nurses can legitimately come into contact with sweat and saliva? Eh?

The U.S. Doctor in Liberia worked for Samaritans Purse and is being treated there.

There has been 1,000 deaths in all........there is a 2 day incubation period which makes early detection so difficult . The Guy who fell ill on a Plane a few weeks ago was in the incubation period and has since died. Since there is no cure it is difficult to know whether any more Countries will be affected.

Apparently the Man who died in Liberia on Friday had boarded 4 seperate Planes so there is concern about other Countries he visited to attend various Conferences. An expert on Ebola said the biggest problem is the lack of hygiene in these Countries affected, the latest death toll is 670.

Professor David Evans a Virology expert at Warwick University says Bats were originally the cause of the virus spreading and 672 have died in West Africa from the Ebola virus. He says the Sars virus reached epidemic proportions but a cure was found and is confident a cure will be found for Ebola with so many virologists around the World working to that end.

The U.S. volunteer force removing their Staff is natural but puts a bigger strain on the Doctors and Nurses trying to cope.

Just announced.....the President of Sierra Leone has cancelled a trip to the U.S. and declared a state of emergency as the death toll rises to 670.
