They better keep those infected contained or we're all dead, IMO. :scared::scared:
Ebola patient escapes Liberia quarantine, chased in market
"The man in the red shirt has Ebola and has just escaped quarantine in Monrovia. He's searching for food and armed with a stick, trying to avoid medical staff who are in pursuit. The man has just escaped Monrovia's Elwa hospital, which is overcrowded and struggling to provide Ebola patients with food and water. Locals are both sympathetic and frustrated."

World 'losing battle' to contain Ebola
"International medical agency Medecins sans Frontieres said Tuesday the world was "losing the battle" to contain Ebola as the United Nations warned of severe food shortages in the hardest-hit countries.
MSF told a UN briefing in New York that world leaders were failing to address the epidemic and called for an urgent global biological disaster response to get aid and personnel to west Africa.
"Six months into the worst Ebola epidemic in history, the world is losing the battle to contain it. Leaders are failing to come to grips with this transnational threat," said MSF international president Joanne Liu.
"The (World Health Organization) announcement on August 8 that the epidemic constituted a 'public health emergency of international concern' has not led to decisive action, and states have essentially joined a global coalition of
inaction."..."

Wow. That is awful. Give the poor infected people enough food and water so they dont feel they have to leave the hospitals. Wow. Wow Wow
That new vaccine seems real promising but they sure need to speed up the making of the vaccine.
