Recently, Ebola epidemic that attacks the West African region, causing
the world's attention. WHO has released the data, there are at least 800
people who died after the Ebola virus. This disease has a very high
mortality rate, 90 percent of patients died. Unfortunately, vaccine or
drug to cure Ebola still haven't found yet.
The Ebola virus was first discovered in Africa in 1976. Originally, the
virus only attacks primates such as monkeys and apes. But now, it has
evolved into dangerous disease because the ebola is transmitted to
humans. This year, the Ebola virus is raging, the number of deaths has
been increased two times more than in 1976, reported by BBC.com.
The increasing case of the Ebola epidemic in West Africa in the 2014
caused anxiety. Ebola virus which attacks the body's defense system is
similar with the HIV virus. Early symptoms are similar to flu symptoms
such as high fever, body weakness, muscle pain and headache.
The Most Deadly Virus
What makes Ebola virus became so dangerous is its ability to breed. This
virus can agglutinate blood cells, then this condition can inhibit
blood flowing to other organs. If the organs lack of blood, it will
cause some damages. After attacking the blood, ebola virus also attacks
other organs, such as kidney, brain, intestine, liver and so on. Many of
ebola patients died because of kidney failure.
Very Fast Transmission
Ebola virus transmission can occur from a contact of body fluids, blood,
and all the things that have been used by patient. Therefore, ebola
patients must be isolated in order to avoid a direct contact with other
people. The medical teams who handle the patients also have to wear
special cloth in order to prevent the spread of the virus. Currently, a
citizen of the United States has been infected with ebola. Indonesian
Health Ministry itself has issued a travel warning for the people who
will visit the countries of Guinea, Sierra and Liberia.
There are some ways to prevent the ebola virus. We have to keep clean
and do not make direct contact with patients. Hopefully soon, vaccines
and drugs will be discovered so the number of dead can be decreased.
