Ebola Virus

       

        Ebola   in West Africa is a global epidemic and the world should take serious action before it will be too late to control the epidemic. In the article, Window to Stop Ebola Outbreak Is “Closing Quickly" Official Warns by Alexandra Sifferlin. He argues that closing contact with affected countries will not help to outbreak the Ebola. The international community have responsibility to control and contain it. Ebola killed a lot of people in West Africa such as Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. Sifferlin reports that there are a lot patient lying on the ground in some clinic. That means the effected countries has very weak health care system. International community and global organization should take a quick decision to support these clinic and should create new portable hospital and send a group of doctors to treat the patient and help the afflicted countries because it is global problem. Each day passing will make the problem worse than before. The world health organization should have effective massive response to fight against the Ebola. I think the time is going not help West Africa countries the harder to stop the outbreak.

  1. You have some great ideas. The WHO is severely lacking funding to help the crisis as a large percent of its funding is from private donations. Whose responsibility does it fall to then to support this effort? Make sure you are providing a link to the article you have read, if you need help let me know.
