Is the World prepared to fight the Ebola virus?

Nowadays, Africa has been suffering the most epidemic of Ebola of the history. This virus is so dangerous and expand so fast by the air and the world are so worried about what can be happened in the next days, weeks, months and years. How to combat the Ebola proliferation? What is the cure to this disease? What will be the future of the poor Africa? These are questions that the world would like to answer quickly but no yet have response to it.

Alexandra Sifferlin in her article"Window to Stop Ebola Outbreak is "Closing Quickly", Official Warns" in the time.com talk about the increase of the people infected and the overwhelming of the doctors that works in the infected areas "The number of cases is so large, the epidemics so overwhelming and it requires an overwhelming response".

The World Health Organization and another groups like Doctors Without Borders are trying to help the countries infected but everybody that have contact with this areas are propitious to be infected too. However some doctors contracted this disease.

Another point that need be thought by the specialists is about the control of borders and the necessity of supplies to another citizens. It's indispensable to maintain the others citizens with the health and dignity while the scientists trying to find a cure to this disease. The people needs receive instructions about this virus and how to be protected. Some specifics rituals need be adapted to avoid the proliferation of the virus like the burial rituals.

So, it isn't a specific problem of the Africa continent. It's a problem that all of the world need be prepared and have to pay attention about what will be in the future of the world. Really this disease means a big challenge for the science and for the world. It's a big unknown and we can't predict how many time we need life with this virus between us.

  1. Good clear writing. Watch our for pronoun reference (for example in paragraph 2 you reference the author as 'your' instead of 'her').
