So in a continent with little to no civilized medical facilities, scetchy methods of infection control and many villages/outlying areas that are in denial that the disease even exists, a grand total of around 3500 people are dead?


You have a greater chance of getting malaria.

Yep. It's a little stick you pee on. If yours shows a negative sign you have it....and you're not pregnant.

I don't think people realize just how few people have died from this outbreak in the grand scheme of things.

But if you're a guy and it shows a little positive sign or two lines, you have cancer.

I mean, it is a problem, but you shouldn't lose sleep or doomsday prep over it.

You should look up what the facilities they're being treated at look like. You wouldn't be worried.

I post this in every Ebola thread. Only 3K people have died in Africa, the continent with perfect plague conditions. NBD.
