October 8, 201412 yr comment_713526 Someone tell those Africans to STOP EATING MONKEYS. First AIDS, now Ebola...we are so genetically similar to primates that we are more prone to catching diseases from them, yet people still eat them and keep them as pets. Who knows what deadly strain of a new disease or mutated super virus will come from a monkey next? Sigh... Report

October 8, 201412 yr comment_713570 the cure is surviving, and medical care can boost your odds from abisimal 90% to 50%, I nice boost I might say ebola can be seen as the flu (a rather bloody one I give you), your body can and will fight it but it needs to hang on when it does, people weakened or with no aid are virtual dead indeed.

October 30, 201411 yr comment_719364 Luckily I have a strong immune system then. I rarely get sick.The irony is that if you came into contact with Spanish flu you'd be far more likely to die than a 60 yr old with a poor immune system. Report
