re: Ebola in Thailand

Because people in Africa still don't believe ebila even exists. They literally don't give a Frick. That's why.

Then why are there so many people dying from it?

First off, "so many" is a stretch. More people die from a ton of other different diseases every year. We won't go down that list.

Second, the people who are dying from it are people who don't believe in science and/or are just not smart enough, don't have enough faith in their governments and healthcare systems to do anything about. Example, someone who gets confirmed to have ebola is placed in strict quarantine. They can't talk to their family, family can't talk to them. So, the person with ebola doesn't tell anyone and/or their family keeps them at home.

Throw in all the vomiting and shitting everywhere and bam, now the family has it.

So there you go, continue to be scared of nothing if you feel like it.
