Deadly sicknesses unveil claiming many lives in minutes. HIV and Cancer are still what are the world is battling with. Ebola is another case which is claiming many lives in West Africa particularly Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. World Health Organisation(WHO) has just revealed that up to 44 new cases and 21 deaths have been recorded between 6th-8th July which result to the total of 888 cases,539 deaths inclusive, since February. UN has regarded this as the largest and deadliest ever.
The Economic Community Of West African States(ECOWAS) has set up an Ebola Solidarity Fund ,capital in Ghana. to support the regional approach to the epidermic. Nigeria his said to have donated $3.5 million to the states affected.
Ebola is a viral disease which kills very fast, faster than AIDS and Cancer. It causes fever, vomiting, bleeding from eye,ear,nose, diarrhea and kills up to 90% of people infected. It is very contagious and could be contracted through blood and other fluid.
I just hope there is a remedy as fast as possible as this is spreading at a very fast rate. Do not eat BUSHMEAT, if you must eat,wash properly. We wait for a better Africa...
