The recent pillaging in a clinic in West Africa brought fears to the hearts of many people. The fear that traces of Ebola virus in contaminated beddings and linens and other apparatus may lead to a wider spread of the virus. The fear has even reached far greater proportion as a Mexican teacher was observed to manifest the symptoms of Ebola and was tested just this week.
A Mexican women who was found to be a teacher working overseas, although has not recounted recent exposure to Ebola virus, was found to manifest symptoms consistent with Ebola according to an "Albuquerque Journal" published. 'The woman has a sore throat, headaches, muscle aches, and fever; and is in a stable condition.' Although results of the test were not yet in, the health officials continue to implement strict measures and precaution to prevent viral spread.
Many cases of suspected Ebola emerged after this striking outbreak. A Nigerian women who was resuscitated by medical team in Abu Dhabi was being suspected to have the virus after the medical team's assistance, although results were uncertain. Health officials are on alert status for any cases of Ebola that may surface and they are continuing to emphasize the importance of case detection and isolation.
After the announcement of the WHO regarding Ebola virus as a public health emergency, national airlines activated strict medical evaluation for incoming tourists. Hospitals are also being alerted to cater for any suspected cases. Military officers have been also guarding hotspot areas like Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia to prevent people from fleeing. Despite these efforts, terror continues to strike. 'We have no protection from this disease, we cannot be isolation is in our thinking anymore.' 'The world is a small community of nations that when one coughs, nobody sleeps,' Dr. William Close, author of "Ebola."
