Thousands of injuries of "Ebola" by week starting from December






World Health Organization warned of the spread of scary virus Ebola in West Africa, especially in the countries of Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, starting from December, fearing casualties in the thousands per week, and in conjunction with the warnings raised by Britain, France and the United States precautionary measures in airports to detect no injuries might respond to it through the flights.

The organization expressed fears of registration between 5000 and ten thousand injured a week, stressing that the deaths hemorrhagic fever now exceed 4,400 deaths, mostly in those three countries, while said Assistant Director-General of the World Health Organization Bruce Aillward, that the mortality rate among people with hemorrhagic fever caused for Ebola in these countries may reach 70%.

Said Aillward "The epidemic continues to lead in West Africa", pointing out that he is now registered 1000 new cases per week, and warned that the number of casualties rises steadily in the capitals of these countries, and that the real number is estimated and a half times, which is officially registered in Guinea, and twice more in Sierra Leone, and two and a half in Liberia.

Britain started to monitor passengers arriving at airports and train stations, as did the United States and Canada, where they will be questioned passengers coming from countries most affected by the virus, will also be starting on Tuesday measuring temperature passengers at Heathrow Airport. France intends to apply similar measures for flights coming from Guinea, and it was decided to conduct a five airports American receives 94% of the passengers coming from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea passenger screening procedures upon arrival.

In spite of this negative news, the World Health Organization said in a statement in Geneva that she could announce the demise of the wave of Ebola in Senegal next Friday, and then in Nigeria next Monday if you did not register any new infections in these countries until that time.

United Nations: the world is losing the battle against Ebola






A senior official at the World Health Organization said on Tuesday that the organization expects the occurrence of five thousand to ten thousand cases of Ebola virus in western Africa a week, starting from December / December next. While senior official warned the United Nations on Tuesday that the world is going to lose the battle against the epidemic and that it is unable to stop the spread.
The Assistant Director-General, World Health Organization Bruce Aillward in Geneva, the organization recorded more than 8900 cases of Baapola and more than 4400 thousand deaths after infection with the virus since the beginning of the epidemic in West Africa.

The number of new cases is about thousand cases per week over the past few weeks. However, he stressed Aillward it is premature to say that the haemorrhagic fever is no longer spreading at a steady rate, stressing that it would be impossible to stop the spread of the fever unless there is an improvement in tracking the paths of infection in all parts of the communities and isolating new patients immediately.

The World Health Organization has repeatedly said that there are a large number of cases of undeclared in the three countries most affected -oha Liberia, Guinea and Saraleon- Understanding the size and frequency of outbreaks of the virus are important for the success of efforts to eradicate it.
Misleading data
He added that Aillward published data about the disease may also be misleading because the number of known cases of death is less than half the injuries which gives the wrong impression, explaining that the actual death rate higher and up to about 70%.

According to the latest WHO expectations that talked about five to ten thousand new cases a week Baapola in West Africa as of December / December next, adding that this means they will need to seven thousand beds in treatment centers, but this date will not possess, according to expectations only about 4,300 beds.

Ebola virus .. what it is and how we can prevent it? «1»













Friday, August 8th World Health Organization announced in Geneva that the epidemic of Ebola virus (EVD) has become an emergency situation deserves the attention of the world. This epidemic of Ebola virus is not the first epidemic of the disease of western and central Africa, however, and the most stressful and ferocity. The first appearance of successive epidemics of Ebola virus was in 1976 in the Congo River to the vicinity of the so-called Ebola (hence the disease is taking its name). In the intervening period between 1976 and 2012 (36 years old) recorded several epidemics of Ebola virus in Africa hit the order of 2,500 people. The current epidemic has hit since the start of his appearance in eight months and just shoved than 2,400 people died, including more than half.
Ebola disease caused by a virus, but does not see the precise electron microscope, however, fierce as the percentage of deaths among those infected from 50 to 90 percent. The disease affects mainly wild animals, especially bats, which is transmitted to humans. Transmitted infection from the patient to the right if contaminated with blood or secretions such as saliva, urine, feces and semen wounds or scratches in the skin or mucous membrane with any of Mkhalatih. Despite the ugliness of the virus, but it is God's kindness to slaves that it is not infected by breathing. It takes the appearance of symptoms after contracting the virus from 2 to 21 days, symptoms begin to rise in temperature. Headache, feeling tired, and pain in muscles and joints, and congestion in the Al-Zour, and soon the patient gets diarrhea and vomiting. The disease progresses Faisab patient bleeding internal or external, and landing in the kidneys and liver.
There is no specific treatment for the disease or the vaccine protects against him so far, and so cure for the patient depends on supportive therapy by giving intravenous fluids to combat dehydration, fever reducers, painkillers, with the need to isolate the patient so as not to transmit the infection to others, and here must be alert to that treatment must be in the hospital or health center and not in the house for two reasons: the patient briefing with all the necessary medical potential to save him, and secondly, the prevention of transmission of it to Mkhalatih. And the medical team to take maximum protection methods such as wearing protective clothing and a mask and medical gloves and not to be subjected to discharge the patient. In short remedy is in rapid patient care, and to avoid the transmission of it to others. In our conversation next week, we raise the question .. Are we in the UK are exposed to the Ebola epidemic?

Ebola , what are the symptoms and how to heal it?





Published "CBS News" published an article which dealt with the most important questions concerning the disease, Ebola, which exceeded the number of deaths since the beginning of his appearance until early August, 900 people in West Africa, according to the World Health Organization, the organization described the rapid spread of the disease, this time with "non-unprecedented. "Warns officers authorizing health in the United States of American citizens from traveling to the three most affected countries - Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea - Amid fears of the spread of the disease in other countries by air travelers.

Ebola virus disease, formerly known as Ebola haemorrhagic fever, is a highly contagious virus, and it is often fatal, causes flu-like symptoms, and the occurrence of severe internal bleeding. The survival rates of Ebola is very small, where the mortality rate from 60 to 90% of those infected. Featuring Ebola emergence of sudden flu-like symptoms, including fever and a weakness severe and pain in the muscles, headache and sore throat, followed by all of this vomiting, diarrhea, rash and impaired function of the liver and kidneys, and in some cases develop into internal and external bleeding.

She added, "CBS News" that the disease is not transmitted through the air, which you will not get sick if I sat next to an infected person, or if the patient sneezes in the same room. But moves Ebola through body fluids such as blood, or if touched secretions or members of the body of a person who is infected, or died because of him, and that makes working in the field of health care, particularly vulnerable to the risk of infection if you do not care to wear the appropriate protective equipment such as masks, gloves and wildcard occasion. The symptoms begin to appear after a period ranging from two to 21 days from the moment of infection.

At the present time there is no real cure, usually limited to the role of doctors to provide care and support for patients, including oxygen and blood transfusions, fluids, and subsequent treatment of infections caused by HIV infection. Has recently received American woman vaccine experimentally after being infected with the disease, while working in Liberia within a team aid American there, and that the dose of the vaccine was enough for only one person, so it has received an American doctor colleague treatment last through blood transfusions, but no one knows yet Are any of the methods succeeded in treating Ebola or not. Survivors suffer from the disease of some chronic health problems such as infection in the joints and eyes.

Ebola appeared for the first time in 1976, in two areas at one time, Nzara in Sudan, and Yambuku in the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire), and was named to the proportion of the disease Ebola Ebola River in Congo, where the first cases appeared in the village near the river. It is believed that the natural host of the virus is the fruit bats in West Africa. The virus is transmitted to humans through close contact with blood, secretions, members, or other body fluids of infected animals. In Africa moved infection to people through direct contact with fruit bats and chimpanzees, gorillas, monkeys and antelopes, porcupine animals that are found in the rain forest, whether those animals infected with the disease or died.

Theoretically, each of the wounded Ebola did not show symptoms of the disease could travel outside the West African region. Experts say that even if they reached an infected person to the United States, it is unlikely the spread of the disease, which issued the Centers for Disease Control in the United States CDC alerts to doctors and hospitals across the country, and urged them to need to know the history of travel to any patient showing symptoms similar to Ebola , and then infected with the disease can be isolated in quarantine quickly. The problem in West Africa is the lack of trust of the people, whether in hospitals or doctors, and that the infrastructure for health care is not good, as is the case in America. In addition to the high death rates of patients in hospitals has led to severe panic among the people, so much so that they often spend their relatives and loved ones living with HIV in the home rather than admitted to hospitals for treatment.
