Fighting the 2014 Ebola Virus Outbreak Street by Street | The New York T...


The POTUS has things are improving and there is no need for us to do anything more then temperature  screening. If Treatment centers are overflowing how are things improving?

Mutant Ebola warning: Leading U.S. scientist warns deadly virus is already changing to become more contagious  Fears that the deadly virus could mutate and become even more contagious  Dr Peter Jahrling says amount of virus in patients is higher than expected The U.S. scientist says new strain of Ebola may burn 'hotter and quicker' This would mean that the disease would spread more easily Comes as David Cameron urged EU to commit £800m to tackling virus  UK is also stepping up Ebola checks with screening extended at airports Manchester and Birmingham also set to screen  passengers from West Africa  But U.S. health experts say banning travellers entering U.S. from affected region would be a bad idea  The deadly Ebola virus could be mutating to become even more contagious, a leading U.S scientist has warned. The disease has killed nearly 4,000 people, infecting in excess of 8,000 - the majority in the West African nations of Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.

Communities lie in ruins, thousands of children have been orphaned, millions face starvation but the virus continues its unprecedented pace, invading and destroying vast swathes of these countries.

Meanwhile three nurses, two in the U.S. and one in Spain have caught the infection while treating Ebola patients, despite wearing protective suits.

Now U.S. scientist Peter Jahrling of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease believes the current Ebola outbreak may be caused by an infection that spreads more easily than it did before.
