Aya house ca (OP) User ID: 77035788 United States 10/15/2018 10:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.statnews.com (secure)] The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was forced to withdraw its Ebola experts from an outbreak zone in the Democratic Republic of the Congo several weeks ago amid heightened security concerns, a decision that is fueling worry over the impact on efforts to contain the epidemic, according to U.S. officials and public health experts familiar with the matter. The Ebola experts — among the most experienced on the planet — and other U.S. government employees have been told by the State Department that they cannot travel to eastern DRC to help with the on-the-ground response. As a result, Dr. Pierre Rollin — a fixture of Ebola responses for decades — has been consigned to the capital, Kinshasa, more than 1,000 miles away, where he is advising the ministry of health. Other CDC staffers are helping DRC’s eastern neighbors beef up their health security operations and prepare in other ways in case Ebola spreads across DRC’s borders. Some have been detailed to the World Health Organization’s Geneva headquarters. Aya house ca |

Aya house ca (OP) User ID: 77035788 United States 10/15/2018 11:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to news.abs-cbn.com (secure)] WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has convened "an emergency committee" on the current outbreak in DRC's violence-torn North Kivu region, which has killed 135 people since August, the UN health agency said in a statement. "The committee will meet on October 17 in Geneva to ascertain whether the outbreak constitutes a public health emergency of international concern," the statement said. In the WHO's parlance, "a public health emergency of international concern" is an "extraordinary event" in which a disease may spread across borders and requires a vigorous international response.

Aya house ca (OP) User ID: 77035788 United States 10/15/2018 11:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.cbc.ca (secure)] The latest Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo is at risk of spiralling out of control, as health workers try to contend with both armed insurgents and hostile locals. The latest World Health Organization figures, released this morning in Geneva, tally 200 cases and 125 deaths since this outbreak in north-eastern DRC began Aug. 1. That was just a week after the previous cluster of infections in the western part of the country had finally been declared vanquished. The most pressing worry is that the rate of new, confirmed and suspected cases has more than doubled over the past month. It's a clear indication that efforts to contain the spread of the virus are failing, particularly in the city of Beni, the epicentre of the new outbreak. Aya house ca |
Aya house ca (OP) User ID: 77035788 United States 10/15/2018 11:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Earlier this month, three volunteer members of a hazmat-suited Red Cross "safe and dignified" burial team were attacked by an angry crowd in the city of Butembo as they tried to dispose of a body. Two of the relief workers were seriously wounded. In September, another Red Cross burial volunteer was injured when her vehicle was showered with stones. The WHO says that such "community refusals" have happened on at least 32 occasions since the beginning of the outbreak, including the seizure of a body by an angry mob earlier this week. All of which poses a significant problem, since Ebola is often spread from the dead to the living. Aya house ca |

During the outbreak several months ago numerous Ebola flights crossed borders. Likely for treatment, study, or who knows what. The flight paths are often telling. Perhaps the outbreaks are spread further in the region than has been reported. Aya house ca |

Congo’s health ministry said on Monday that in the past week alone 33 people were confirmed with Ebola virus and 24 of them died. The ministry said the latest cases were confirmed between Oct. 8 and 14. In total, more than 200 suspected cases of the deadly hemorrhagic fever have been reported in this outbreak, all but a couple of dozen of them confirmed, while some 130 people have died since July. The only thing butt puckering here is the use of the blasted #33 for the number of sick or infected patients with 24 dying. The cabal loves to talk in numbers. Club 33? |

The way the virus acts today, does not determine how it will act tomorrow. They are constantly sharing genetic information from one case to the next. Patients can even be infected with more than one virus at a time, leading to the potential of viruses carrying new traits or acting in novel ways. For now, Ebola is not as easily spread. Typically close contact with bodily fluids is what it takes. The more people who get infected the greater the chance the couscous change. Perhaps becoming something that exhibits more respiratory symptoms, this leading to a more efficient means of transmission. Aya house ca |

Most think of viruses as a stable creature, like a mammal. They are nothing like that. Highly adaptable, malleable, always looking for their way to reproduce more easily, this is like most organisms. But it is their ability to change, often and as frequently as they acquire a new host that makes them unstable. Many genetic variants go by the wayside, yet a few will carry on. Heaven forbid a Para influenza virus like Nipa h ever grabs hold. Aya house ca |
