Ja nisam pojma imao dok nisam pročitao ovu vest. Elem, posle sam se raspitao kod ljudi koji znaju nešto više. E sad, oni su mi rekli da se Marburški virus prenosi krvnim putem, ali nisu znali da se ova varijanta prenosi SVIM telesnim tečnostima - i znojem i pljuvačkom.

Dalje, ti podaci govore da dosad najsmrtonosniji virus (neka varijanta Ebola virusa) ubija devet od 10 ljudi. Ovaj je ubio 210 od 231.

Nije baš da se plašim i znam da nisam originalan, ali ovo traje od oktobra, a po medijima se pojavi slučajno. Stvarno se čovek zapita u kakvom svetu živi.

QuoteGENEVA, April 14 (Reuters) - Travellers to Angola, where  
Marburg disease has killed 210, should avoid close contact with
ill people and countries may wish to screen returning visitors,
the World Health Organisation (WHO) said on Thursday.
   In its first advice on travel since the outbreak began last
October, the U.N. agency also said that people with existing
medical conditions who might require hospitalisation "should
consider deferring non-essential travel to Angola".
   At least 14 of the 210 people known to have died of the
disease -- a haemorrhagic fever transmitted through bodily
fluids including saliva and blood -- have been health workers.
Most of the total 231 cases have been in northern Uige province.
   "WHO does not recommend restrictions on travel to any
destination within Angola, but does advise some precautions.
Travellers to Angola should be aware of the outbreak of Marburg
haemorrhagic fever and of the need to avoid close contact with
ill persons," it said in a statement posted overnight.
   Countries having close ties with Angola, and whose citizens
travel frequently there, may wish to consider introducing
measures to increase vigilance for potential symptoms in
travellers returning from Angola, according to the WHO.
   "In some cases, the introduction of screening procedures to
identify potentially infected persons may be considered," it
said.
   To date, the Geneva-based agency was not aware of any cases
of Marburg that have occurred in foreign nationals other than
those involved in the care of cases in Uige, it said.
   Travellers leaving Angola should seek medical attention if
any illness with fever develops within 10 days of their
departure and should inform health care workers of their recent
travel, it said.

Sve centralno-afričke redovito imaju takve epidemije. Varijante virusa ebole opstaju među životinjama, pogotovo primatima a zbog čestih suša i gladi u centralnoj Africi lokalno stanovništvo ponekad jede primate. Virus tako pređe barijeru životinja – čovek a da se i ne sazna dok ne izbije epidemija.

Većinu epidemija niko ni ne pokušava da leči; pogotovo u Angoli žitelji zaraženih sela se naprosto ubace u karantin dok epidemija sama od sebe ne prestane.

Što se uglavnom dešava kada svi zaraženi pomru.

Ma taj virus je mala deca za ovo:

Liberia: Dead Ebola Patients Resurrect?

Quote
Two Ebola patients, who died of the virus in separate communities in Nimba County have reportedly resurrected in the county. The victims, both females, believed to be in their 60s and 40s respectively, died of the Ebola virus recently in Hope Village Community and the Catholic Community in Ganta, Nimba.


But to the amazement of residents and onlookers on Monday, the deceased reportedly regained life in total disbelief. The New Dawn Nimba County correspondent said the late Dorris Quoi of Hope Village Community and the second victim only identified as Ma Kebeh, said to be in her late 60s, were about to be taken for burial when they resurrected.


Ma Kebeh had reportedly been in door for two nights without food and medication before her alleged death. Nimba County has had bizarre news of Ebola cases with a native doctor from the county, who claimed that he could cure infected victims, dying of the virus himself last week.


News of the resurrection of the two victims has reportedly created panic in residents of Hope Village Community and Ganta at large, with some citizens describing Dorris Quoi as a ghost, who shouldn't live among them. Since the Ebola outbreak in Nimba County, this is the first incident of dead victims resurrecting.

A ja se pitam što sam nešto zaslinavio ovih dana...

šmrc, šmrc

Mada, nešto mislim kako su našli lek protiv ebole: duvan. (ne zezam se)
Što će reći, moramo ponovo propušiti a i podstaći duvan za žvakanje. Mada se Zlatibor zalaže sa marihuanu, uskoro će zbog novih tendencija u nauci, uvesti ponovo hercegovačku škiju.

Cigarete sam davno ostavila, marihuana mi se nikad nije dopadala, a škiju nisam ni probala.
Sad, ako bude puši il' umri, možda ću da popustim... Na Kaleniću prodaju neki duvan.

Kuj ne veruje, eve mu linkovi pa nek se uveri sam. A možda i po naški to upali: dobar, jak čak od par liski duvana sa par kapi prepečenice, dobro preznojavanje i ki rukom...

Vaskrsle dve žene "umrle" od ebole!


Dve žene starosti 60 i 40 godina, za koje se veruje da su u selu Hop u Liberiji preminule od ebole, oživele su dok se spremala njihova sahrana.


Zbog vesti o oživljavanju zaraženih žena među pripadnicima zajednice Ganta u ovoj zemlji zavladala je panika jer smatraju da su došli duhovi koji ne bi trebalo da budu među živima.

Od izbijanja ebole u Liberiji, ovo je prvi, odnosno drugi slučaj da je neko posle smrti "oživeo".


Do sada je od ebole u Zapadnoj Africi umrlo skoro 3.000 ljudi od ukupno 6.260 zaraženih, saopštila je danas u Ženevi Svetska zdravstvena organizacija (SZO).

Epidemija se pojavila krajem decembra 2013. u Gvineji, gde je do sada umrlo 635 osoba. Virus se potom proširio u Liberiju u kojoj ima 1.677 mrtvih, a u Sijera Leoneu umrlo je 597 osoba.

Svake nedelje u te tri zemlje ima u proseku od 75 do 100 novih inficiranih. Situacija se pogoršava u Sijera Leonu i Liberiji, dok se stanje stabilizuje u Gvineji.

Zdravstveni radnici su takođe pogođeni virusom. U najpogođenijim zemljama umrlo je 208 od 373 zaraženih lekara i medicinskog osoblja.

Sad videh da je ovo već okačeno

Прва жртва еболе у Македонији?

Ebola strikes back. Kongo.

Zar se ta ebola ne prenosi uglavnom tako što ljudi rutualno piju vodu iz usta preminulog? Ako to ne radiš trebalo bi da si uglavnom bezbedan, zar ne?

Kako, zar nisu i neki medicinski radnici obolevali?

Možda ne paze, pa piju iz iste čaše kao i oboleli.

Well, ne baš. Premda su podaci (scientific evidence)  kako sve može da dođe do prenosa virusa prilično limitirani, ovo je trenutna situacija:




Potential routes of Ebola virus transmission and infection between people. Ebola virus (EBOV) has been isolated from bodily fluids including blood, stool, semen, saliva, and breast milk [6]; contact with these fluids from infected individuals creates a high risk of transmission. These infectious fluids can also be formed into droplets which travel in the air (range unknown, possibly 1 meter) and potentially infect others. EBOV has been detected in dried blood and persists on surfaces, so the possibility of fomite transmission exists. Airborne transmission via small aerosol droplets is unlikely from current EBOV epidemiology.

QuoteJ Infect Dis. 1999 Feb;179 Suppl 1:S87-91.Transmission of Ebola hemorrhagic fever: a study of risk factors in family members, Kikwit, Democratic Republic of the Congo, 1995. Commission de Lutte contre les Epidémies à Kikwit.Dowell SF¹, Mukunu R, Ksiazek TG, Khan AS, Rollin PE, Peters CJ.
AbstractThe surviving members of 27 households in which someone had been infected with Ebola virus were interviewed in order to define the modes of transmission of Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF). Of 173 household contacts of the primary cases, 28 (16%) developed EHF. All secondary cases had direct physical contact with the ill person (rate ratio [RR], undefined; P < .001), and among those with direct contact, exposure to body fluids conferred additional risk (RR, 3.6; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.9-6. . After adjusting for direct contact and exposure to body fluids, adult family members, those who touched the cadaver, and those who were exposed during the late hospital phase were at additional risk. None of the 78 household members who had no physical contact with the case during the clinical illness were infected (upper 95% CI, 4%). EHF is transmitted principally by direct physical contact with an ill person or their body fluids during the later stages of illness.

Treba imati na umu i da je ebola RNA virus što znači da ima high-mutation rate i ne smemo da isključimo da, recimo, mutacija jednog nukleotida može da dovede da postane airborne. Ovakvi slučajevi airborne prenosa jesu prijavljivani ali zahtevaju eksperimentalnu proveru (ja ne mislim da može ovako da se prenosi al to je mišljenje a ne scientific based izjava). Da bi radio s ebolom, potreban ti je facility koji ima biosafety level 4 a to nije baš široko dostupno: https://www.gao.gov/new.items/d08108t.pdf
