My advice to you if Ebola is spreading...

hmmm....figured out bacon, but not the vodka.
:happyawe:

I could be wrong... but I could be right.

An estimated 675,000 Americans died from the A/H1N1 pandemic influenza in the United States in 1918-1919. Many of these deaths were from ensueing bacterial pneumonia rather than directly from the viral infection. The United States Public Health Service conducted surveys in twelve cities and rural areas of the country in late 1918 to early 1919 to determine the case-fatality rate in each city or area. Case-fatality rates varied from 0.78 deaths/100 cases in San Antonio, Texas to 3.14 deaths/100 cases in New London, Connecticut. The strong variation with location suggested that solar ultraviolet-B (UVB) irradiance, through production of vitamin D, reduced the risk of death following infection by this pandemic influenza.

To investigate this possibility, the case-fatality rate data were compared statistically with solar UVB doses in July and January. Strong correlations with UVB doses were found for both indices.

"Vitamin D also reduces the production of proinflammatory cytokines, which could also explain some of the benefit of vitamin D since H1N1 infection gives rise to a cytokine storm. The potential role of vitamin D status in reducing secondary bacterial infections and loss of life in pandemic influence requires further evaluation."

Bacon and vodka.

I can tell from your signature you're in the know.

Bacon is the answer to everything.

Or avoid the areas where it currently is active...more people died last week in auto crashed than have died from Ebola...choose what you fear carefully.

and chocolate.

chocolate covered bacon. yum!

Chocolate = milk = vitamin D... didn't someone say that Vitamin D was good too?

Soooo vodka and chocolate covered bacon it is.

Technically, what kills a person is NOT the Ebola virus.
What kills the person is the 'CYTOKINE STORM'.

SO.... to safegaurd yourself from cytokine storm... make sure you have high levels of vitamin D.

The Cytokine Storm is the immune systems response to the Ebola virus.

I could be wrong... but I could be right.

Vitamin D3 BOOSTS the immune response, which is the very cause of a cytokene storm. Those with weaker immune systems dont suffer cytokene storms like healthy strong individuals. Seen it hundreds of times over.
