Can’t hurt but, the real reason people die from thus disease are:
.
1. Dehydration
.
2. Flu like symptoms of the lungs
.

3. Hemorrhagic effects of dehydration

We are very capable of dealing with the 1st two

Actually people die of multi organ failure likely caused by DIC (disseminated intravascular coagulation). This leads to clotting and bleeding all at the sane time and us devastating. If it were simple dehydration no one would die in even a semi modern hospital. But whn lungs liver kidneys brain etc all stop working nithing can stop that train

There’s this ten-percent survivor rate deal, which no one ever seems to want to discuss. The media makes it sound like 100-percent death rate....and it’s not that way.

So Africa has been able to use marginal healthcare, limited IV usage, few if any fever-reducing drugs, enhanced liquid foods, limited educated nurses and doctors, and really crappy open-door hospitals with lots of bacteria available....to get up to ten-percent survival rate?

We don’t need billion-dollar wonder drugs to get up to ninety-percent survival rates. We have everything at our disposal currently to get an outstanding rate. If you just show up early on....get these idiots to agree you have Ebola, and then apply standard drugs/treatment....you will likely survive unless you had a secondary issue (heavy drug use, HIV, diabetes, etc).
