Is a new outbreak of the Ebola virus about to cause widespread panic all over the globe? The Zaire strain of the disease is fairly common, and in recent years scientists have developed effective treatments for it. Unfortunately, the new outbreak that has just erupted in Uganda is of the Sudan strain. There had not been a case of that strain in a decade, but now it is spreading rapidly. So far, there have been 63 confirmed cases, and 29 of those individuals have died. There is no treatment and no cure for the Sudan strain. So if this virus were to start spreading widely around the world, the death toll could potentially be catastrophic.
So everyone is hoping that this new outbreak can be contained.
With that goal in mind, the president of Uganda has just declared a “three-week lockdown” for the two districts where cases of Ebola have been confirmed…
Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has declared an immediate three-week lockdown in two high risk districts as the country battles a rise in Ebola infections.
All movement in and out of the Mubende and Kassanda districts will be halted, Museveni said in a televised address on Saturday – although cargo trucks will be allowed to enter and leave the areas.
Curfews will also be imposed. Places of worship, bars, gyms, saunas and other entertainment venues will close but schools will remain open, he added.

Sage advice actually.
Africans have a lot of weird beliefs.
The white knuckle fear of snakes and dogs among many of them.
Walking barefoot in the mud cannot be healthy.

Recall Remdesivir (”Run death is near”) was studied as a treatment for Ebola; and they halted the trials because it was too dangerous.
Just think — too dangerous to treat Ebola (some strains up to 80% lethal), but perfectly ok to force on people who only tested positive via PCR for COVID-1984. Even though the guy who got the Nobel Prize for INVENTING PCR, said it shouldn’t be used for diagnosis.
That is sage advice to prevent a whole host of health issues and diseases.
