Uh huh. Where are the posters who were downplaying the virus now? It's coming people.

In Hong Kong, the state-run China Daily reported that a woman who recently returned from Africa with “symptoms similar to the Ebola virus”—which at the early stages include headache, fever, and stomach pain—is in a hospital isolation ward while she undergoes testing. Symptoms can take up to three weeks to materialize; the virus has a mortality rate of up to 90%.

In Birmingham, a man who arrived on a flight from Nigeria has also been taken to a hospital isolation unit after complaining of “feeling feverish.” The UK government is holding an emergency meeting on how to address the “new and emerging threat” of Ebola later today.

So people that have fever have been quarantined and you are swearing this is a global Ebola outbreak?

They are probably reading one of the other 3 dozen ebola threads.

Well this isn't the first time Africa has caused an outbreak of problems.
