    Default Ebola part 2

    A new strain of flu virus has killed 61 people in Mexico already and has shown up in the States. Fuc cin scary. And its too late to contain the virus, it is out in the open. Our only hope is to ride it out and hopefully this is not the strain scientists were afraid about for some time now.

    AP's got the upper hand on Reuters

    The CDC says two flu drugs, Tamiflu and Relenza, seem effective against the new strain. Roche, the maker of Tamiflu, said the company is prepared to immediately deploy a stockpile of the drug if requested. Both drugs must be taken early, within a few days of the onset of symptoms, to be most effective.

    well the thing is these little viruses pop-out every once in a while, and usually don't do much more harm than kill a couple of hundred ppl at best. Ok, maybe a few thousands sometimes, but really is there really that much threat? On a personal level, yes, but for humanity as a whole, this is nothing. Sorry to say it but even a million people died of some kinda of natural disaster all at once, they would be replaced in like a couple of days based on fast the population is growing.

    Ebola Panic Grips the U.S.

    A flood of calls, but no confirmed Ebola cases

    Federal health officials are facing a surge in reports of possible Ebola cases from hospitals and health departments, none of which have been confirmed but which highlight a moment of growing domestic concern about an outbreak that has claimed over 800 lives in Africa.

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told TIME on Tuesday that it’s received several dozen calls from states and hospitals about people who are ill after traveling in Africa. “We’ve triaged those calls and about half-dozen or so resulted in specimen coming to CDC for testing and all have been negative for Ebola,” CDC spokesman Tom Skinner said, adding that the agency is expecting still more calls to come in.
    “We are confident that we will not have significant spread of Ebola, even if we were to have a patient with Ebola here,” Frieden told reporters last week.

    A patient at Mount Sinai hospital in New York City and a patient in Columbus, Ohio were reported to be in isolation under suspicion of Ebola this week. The Columbus patient tested negative, and the New York City patient is “stable and in good spirits,” according to the hospital. The CDC is still testing the New York patient’s specimen, but officials don’t believe the patient has Ebola.
