| The WHO are now taking the Ebola virus seriously, with an aid package on the agenda to try and tackle the horrid disease. Ebola crisis: WHO to announce $100m emergency responseThe head of the World Health Organization and leaders of West African nations affected by the Ebola outbreak are to announce a joint $100m (£59m; 75m euro) response plan.FULL LINK - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Meanwhile here in the UK, the NHS is said to be ready..

Ebola: UK border staff 'unprepared' says union leaderBorder, immigration and customs staff feel unprepared to deal with people coming to the UK with possible cases of the Ebola virus, a union leader says.

Ebola, Spreading in Africa, Could Land in USAn Ebola outbreak that has killed at least 672 people in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone could land in the U.S., health officials said.
Symptoms of the disease, such as fever, red eyes and bleeding, can take up to three weeks to appear -- ample time for an unwitting victim to travel outside the West African hot zone.
“It’s true that anyone with an illness is just one plane ride away from coming to the U.S.,” said John O’Connor, a spokesman for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “But we have protections in place”.FULL LINK - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Let us all hope Ebola does not come to fruition in either Country, as it would create one hell of a panic.. |

| Strange how no travel (air) restrictions were imposed to contain the 'outbreak'. Seems to have quietened down (media wise) so maybe its more serious and is being covered up ? |

| Donald Trump seems to be behind some of the scaremongering in the USA then... He quotes :- ''The U.S. cannot allow EBOLA infected people back. People that go to far away places to help out are great-but must suffer the consequences''.. And then goes on to add :- ''The U.S. must immediately stop all flights from EBOLA infected countries or the plague will start and spread inside our "borders." Act fast''..

| I'm going to wait before I take the government's advice.
During the last cold spell we had, the government advised us to be well prepared for your daily commute.
So, I took the advise and off I went; tent, sleeping bag, flask of hot water, extra food, snow shovel, pain-killers, GPS, snow shoes, Kendal mint cake, 5 layers of clothing etc etc.
I looked a right twat on the bus to work in the morning!! |
