Man rushed to isolation unit in Liverpool hospital to be tested for Ebola --The man was rushed into an isolation unit after falling ill and is being tested for a number of diseases, but experts say the disease remains a low risk to the UK. | 03 July 2015 | A man recently working in Africa is being treated for the deadly Ebola virus in a UK hospital. The patient was taken to the Royal Liverpool Hospital for tests after concerns were raised over his health. The man, described as having a history of travel to Western Africa, became unwell in North Wales and was rushed to Merseyside in an ambulance. The hospital is one of four in the UK placed on standby last year in case the disease reaches Britain.

comment: I am told by man health professions as well as read statements that Ebola may not even spread in West Africa, much less to Europe, or the United States. Despite the ability to be spread by droplets and the fact it is still mutating - not many people are up at nights unable to sleep worrying about it. 

Some people make money on fear. Some politicians use it to get elected, while others create a diversion from the abysmal state of the world and huge problems we just aren't dealing with.  It is a deadly disease and has a fatality rate of up to 90%. If we do not prepare and be sure we have the facilities and medical staff to treat it, it could overrun clinics in West Africa and eventually the United States and Great Britain.

It may be unlikely, but it grows less unlikely day by day.
