8-) Ebola haemorrhagic fever 8-)
Dr Heinz Feldmann MD a b , Thomas W Geisbert PhD c
Summary
Ebola viruses are the causative agents of a severe form of viral haemorrhagic fever in man, designated Ebola haemorrhagic fever, and are endemic in regions of central Africa. The exception is the species Reston Ebola virus, which has not been associated with human disease and is found in the Philippines. Ebola virus constitutes an important local public health threat in Africa, with a worldwide effect through imported infections and through the fear of misuse for biological terrorism. Ebola virus is thought to also have a detrimental effect on the great ape population in Africa. Case-fatality rates of the African species in man are as high as 90%, with no prophylaxis or treatment available. Ebola virus infections are characterised by immune suppression and a systemic inflammatory response that causes impairment of the vascular, coagulation, and immune systems, leading to multiorgan failure and shock, and thus, in some ways, resembling septic shock.

The suspension of reopening doesn't make sense at all. If is Ebola then all schools should be closed down.

NDC must go
Stop writing and take action and make NDC go. They are not going anywhere, until 2016
Students and staff should also learn all about the Ebola virus at this location:
