The COVID-19 and measles epidemics are not over yet, and Africa is facing a new wave of Ebola. What is the current situation of the African people?

Known as the "Heart of Africa", Congolese Republic is one of the poorest countries in the world. It has poor medical facilities, poor food production, and poor national economy. All these inconveniences have caused another outbreak of the Ebola virus. The African people are in dire straits. They can only turn to international medical organizations to deal with this epidemic. It is difficult for the Congolese government and the country to survive alone. 1. The origin of "zombie virus" Ebola

The name Ebola was originally the name of a river in northern Congo. In 1976, a virus suddenly broke out in the villages around the river. The virus has a very high fatality rate. Villagers in 55 villages around the Ebola river were attacked by the virus. Hundreds of people died in these villages at that time, and many families were even buried here. Therefore, the virus Known as the Ebola virus.

The fatality rate of Ebola virus is extremely high. The highest fatality rate can reach 90%, and the lowest fatality rate will not be lower than 50%. Generally, those who are diagnosed with Ebola virus can only wait to die. There are currently no particularly effective treatments. The symptoms of the disease are mostly external bleeding, joint pain, diarrhea, body discoloration, and even the fever caused by the Ebola virus can destroy the human brain and put people in a coma or a state of suspended animation, which is medically called suspended animation. It will suddenly wake up hours or even days later and become extremely aggressive, so Ebola is also called a "zombie virus". The movie "Resident Evil" was made based on the characteristics of the Ebola virus. 2. Ebola rages frequently, and the African people are in dire straits

Congo itself is very poor. Although there are many minerals and oil, the gap between the rich and the poor is huge. The lives of local residents are miserable, and most of the industries are controlled by the powerful. in hand. The economic base determines the superstructure. If there is no economy at all, there will be no way to develop. Local residents are still eating cornstarch. Even if they eat cornstarch, it cannot meet the needs of everyone in Congo, and they even have to import it. In our country, some cornstarch is fed to pigs, but in the eyes of ordinary people in Congo, this is life-saving rations.

The local residents in the Congo have no source of income. If they cannot afford food, they will hunt for food themselves. If pigs, cattle, sheep and other livestock cannot be hunted, they will eat other orangutans, monkeys, bats, etc. These wild animals carry viruses and bacteria in their bodies, and local residents are unable to deal with these viruses, so they accumulate in the human body over many years. When the virus begins to break out in the human body, it begins to be transmitted through body fluids, excreta, wounds, etc. These viruses will not disappear with the death of the human body, but will be transmitted through dead bodies, which is extremely terrifying.

Congo has now entered a state of comprehensive prevention of Ebola virus. The World Health Organization cannot watch the virus continue to rage. Ebola has a low incubation time and is not spread through the air, so the probability of entering our country is very low. Yes, don't panic too much and just take the usual precautions.
