Ebola

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by Planemaster, Feb 6, 2015.

  1. Media focuses on the more recent stories
     
  2. It's only contagious if your touch their bodily fluids... Vomit, Blood, Urine, you get the point
     
  3. When you sneeze, you force out bodily fluids
     
  4. I say all those who wanna go help let em but don't let em back in case they bring Ebola here see problem solved and don't let ******* forenginers in either
     
  5. Poor Ebola people :(
     
  6. Once you do that, no one is gonna go. The best we can do is quarantine the people while ebola blood tests are done whenever they come back from Africa
     
  7. Lol Ebola is nothing compared to Influenza. And nobody makes a big deal over the common Flu.
    But the truth is, 36,000 Americans die each year from it.

    How scared should you be of Ebola?
     
  8. ^ exactly, the media is over reacting to get more viewers, as always.
     
  9. Ebola is only dangerous to people with rare blood types or country's that don't store blood for emergency although it would cause panic do to the fact of internal bleeding that would leak out the certain points on your body
    But you guys seem to forget not every country in the world is as we'll of as yours it may not be athreat to you but it still can kill people so a cure would be needed and viruse are often use to transport treatment in manny cases
     
  10. Well this is wrong. Ebola is spread only through direct blood or bodily fluid contact and does not spread in any other way. Your idea on blood types and stored blood makes no sense what so ever.
     
  11. Certain blood types makes no sense whatsoever but the blood store bit does.
    Treating ebola consists of constantly replacing blood lost through internal/external bleeding via ebola. Without a large blood store, you can't do this with ease
     
  12. This will sound very rude, mean, and unsympathetic.... But without the treatment the people will die and so will the disease. It's more lethal than contagious, which will lead to everyone with the disease dying before it spreads more. IF they don't receive treatment and aren't doing drugs, participating in sexual activity etc, the disease will just die out.
     
  13. The disease could evolve to be less lethal so the host can walk around easily. It's happened before.
     
  14.  
  15. Ebola is a man made virus that was secretly tested in West Africa by... You guessed it... The United States government. It got out. Disaster!

    Couple weeks later an " experimental " medicine was released, then couple months later - a vaccine.

    My god they scientists work quick for a cure these days. If only they could have been so quick for aids lol

    Read between the lines, make up your own minds rather than what you read in a news paper.
     
  16. U have a better chance getting bit by a mosquito and getting west Nile than getting Ebola unless u live in south africa js
     
  17. Kay…
