The outburst of Ebola illness in West Africa has been in the press releases for months. At its current size it represents the largest outbreak of the disease in known human history. This outbreak has spread over a few nations and cost many lives.
The Ebola illness in West Africa has a death rate of approximately 70%. This means that 7 out of 10 patients to contract the disease will die. It is believe that this number is essentially higher and that many deaths are going unreported inside this area.
So far the onset has only influenced West Africa. Other states and areas have had cases imported in by help worked but those cases have been treated and isolated. In this manner the outburst is a difficulty that only impacts West Africa and those that work in that area.
The pathogen has been found in 6 different nations inside West Africa. The countries affected by Ebola disease in West Africa are; Sierra Leone, Guinea, Mali, and Liberia. There were onsets in both Nigeria and Senegal but both states have been declared free of Ebola virus since October of the current year.
The stop of the virus in these West African states leaves wish for the eventual containment and cure of the disease. Sadly Mali has been the country with the latest reports of the Ebola virus showing that containment has not yet happened. While this is depressing the pathogen is progressing at a much gentler rate than was originally predicted.
There have been an overall total of approximately 18,000 cases reported in the opinion of the counts made by The World Health Organisation. However this number is said to be too low and forecasts say from this month onward more than 10,000 causes could occur a month.
The rapid spread of the Ebola virus in West Africa puts the whole area at risk. This pathogen makes it harder to maintain trade other other industrial relations for the already pauperised states. Adding to this a huge death toll is making this breakout very hard on the whole region.
