Most important is that frontline health workers attempting to contain the spread in south africa will be given the vaccine by the end of december 2014...there sre stages and structure with the vaccine in relation to containment, which is still deemed experimental

[killercow]

I was asked this question but can't seem to find an answer so I'm passing it on.

What may realistically happen if immediately after contracting chikungunya I am
bitten by a mosquito that bit someone with Ebola?
Will I get Ebolgunya / Chikunbola?

Ebola crisis: Infections 'slowing in Liberia'


http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-29822303

The World Health Organization (WHO) says there has been a decline in the spread of Ebola in Liberia, the country hardest hit in the outbreak.

The WHO's Bruce Aylward said it was confident the response to the virus was now gaining the upper hand.

But he warned against any suggestion that the crisis was over.

The WHO later said the number of cases globally had risen more than 3,000 to 13,703 since its last report, but that this was due to reporting reasons.

The number of deaths was put at 4,920, roughly the same as the last report four days ago. All but 10 of the deaths have been in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.

In other developments:

US Defence Secretary Chuck Hagel says US troops returning from Ebola missions will be kept in isolation for 21 days
US joins 30 other nations from the Americas at an Ebola conference in Cuba
In UK, an umbrella of charities - Disasters Emergency Committee - is to launch an Ebola appeal
'Pet tiger'
The latest WHO figure of 13,703 cases is a significant leap on its previous situation report on Saturday, which showed cases rising above 10,000 for the first time - to 10,141.

But Dr Aylward, the WHO's assistant director general, said that this increase was due to data being updated with old cases, rather than new cases being reported.

Saturday's situation report put the death toll at 4,922.

The similar death toll in the latest report was mainly a result of a revision of the Liberian statistics.

Cases there rose from 4,655 to 6,535 but reported deaths dropped from 2,705 to 2,413.

Deaths in Guinea rose from 926 to 997 and in Sierra Leone from 1,281 to 1,500.

Liberia's Red Cross said its teams collected 117 bodies last week, down from a high of 315 in September. Treatment centres also have empty beds available for patients.

Dr Aylward said : "It appears that the trend is real in Liberia and there may indeed be a slowing."

"Do we feel confident that the response is now getting an upper hand on the virus? Yes, we are seeing a slowing rate of new cases, very definitely."

Dr Aylward said there had been "a huge effort to inform the population about the disease, to change the behaviours that put them at risk".

And he said there had been "a real step up in the work to put in place safe burials".

But Dr Aylward said the data was still being examined and cautioned against thinking the crisis was over.

He said: "A slight decline in cases in a few days versus getting this thing closed out is a completely different ball game.

"It's like saying your pet tiger is under control."

Later, US President Barack Obama praised the progress made in Liberia, but also warned: "This is still a severe, significant outbreak... We've got a long way to go."

He said again that the disease had to be tackled at its source in West Africa, adding: "If we don't deal with the problem there, it will come here."

Until Ebola was contained, he said, there could be more individual cases in the US.



Magnate's gift
On Wednesday, South Africa's first black billionaire, Patrice Motsepe, donated $1m (£620,000) to Guinea to help the country fight Ebola.

The mining magnate said he hoped it would assist with clinical management, social mobilisation and other key steps in controlling the deadly virus.

His donation was announced as the US welcomed the international aid effort.

with regards to not allowing people from ebola infected countries into Trinidad

at what point are they refused entry?

from boarding the plane before they come here?

or at immigration locally?

She could stay right there yes.

[j.o.e]

South Africa is not on the list of Ebola affected countries...fyi Lara is there right now and we're due to play cricket there end of November. Africa is a big place

[BRZ]

then the whole cricket team should be quarantined when they return

[j.o.e]

South Africa....is NOT an Ebola affected country. By your logic we should quarantine people who come from USA...in case you didn't notice USA had 4 cases...South Africa 0
Stop being a irrational

MISSION EBOLA

By Miranda La Rose Tuesday, October 28 2014


Chief Medical Officer Dr Colin Furlonge will fly to West Africa, after volunteering to do so, to see first hand how nations afflicted with the Ebola virus are managing the care of patients, and are containing the spread of the disease.

Furlonge is likely to be accompanied by at least one other member of the Ebola Medical Response Team and Ebola Prevention, Information and Response Team (EPIRT), or more, if others volunteer to travel to West Africa.

Liberia, where there have been 2,705 confirmed Ebola deaths, is the nation the team is expected to visit.

Furlonge told Newsday yesterday he is volunteering to go to one of the afflicted West African nations to see “first hand how things are unfolding on the ground, to see what is taking place, to understand it, and to fully comprehend.”

This means, he said, he will have to go into the field to see what is taking place.

The idea to go to the epicentre of the epidemic came to him over the weekend and yesterday he discussed the issue with Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Health Christine Sookram, and Health Minister Dr Fuad Khan.

Khan has agreed with Furlonge’s suggestion in terms of a training programme and suggested a team be assembled to look at Ebola infections from the medical and security points of view.

He confirmed Liberia would be the first nation of choice to visit.

Khan has also suggested president of the Public Service Association Watson Duke, and herbalist who advertises a cure of Ebola, Trevor Sayers, be part of the team. Khan noted that while medical experts have claimed that they have found no cure for the disease it would be practical for Sayers to put his remedy that he advertises as a cure, to the test. “Maybe Sayers is the best person to send to West Africa,” he said seriously.
