The Ebola pandemic in West Africa is getting worse. Officials from the World Health Organization are saying that it is spreading faster than they can keep up with it. Over 100 medical personnel have been infected and more than 60 of them have died.
The world is watching closely to see what happens, and to see if the virus moves beyond the borders of the four countries where the disease is currently operating.
This is probably the most serious pandemic to hit modern man. We deal with pandemics regularly, with variations of the Flu breaking out every year. But this is different; while influenza is a killer, responsible for somewhere between a quarter million and a half million deaths every year.
But that is nothing compared to the danger that Ebola brings. While previous Ebola outbreaks have all been rather small, the mortality rate of Ebola is typically about 90 percent.
The head of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has gone on record saying that with modern air travel, he believes it is inevitable that Ebola make the leap across the ocean and end up here in the United States. Any day we could begin hearing news reports of Ebola cases breaking out in America, perhaps even in multiple places at once.
