A disease that health officials have described as the fastest-spreading on record in Africa shows no signs of slowing down, and may soon afflict those outside the continent.
The unprecedented spread of Ebola has resulted in thousands of cases, with Nigeria reporting its first case in more than a decade last month, and additional reports in Kenya and other African countries.
While the majority of cases are currently affecting those in Africa, health experts are warning that the situation could change and countries should start increasing preparedness now.

Fear porn to the max.
The repetitive reaction to news stories is tiresome, why shouldn’t this Ebola outbreak get covered?
This is one of the most easily avoided diseases out there.
It’s not easy to catch unless you are a complete moron (or are treating the infected).
With any populace that knows not to hug and kiss bleeding dead bodies, wear shoes, and not attack nurses providing care, any spread will be extremely limited.

Easy fix, stop all international travel for impaced countries, and quarantine those who recently visited those countries.

From what I understand, ebola by its nature is difficult to spread at pandemic levels.

Total Cases (as of Oct. 31, 2026)
10,498
total confirmed cases and 5,107 total confirmed deaths
Key takeaway
Gay relationships are not a cause or risk factor for Ebola. The virus spreads through direct contact with infected bodily fluids, not through sexual orientation. The main risks to gay communities during Ebola outbreaks have been social stigma and misinformation, not the virus itself. Accurate public health information and community education are essential to prevent both disease spread and discrimination

read the above slowly..............................
Ebola is fairly fast acting and is deadly, so it is difficult to spread when it comes to villages in Africa that are a day’s walk apart. The typical villager doesn’t make it very far.
Get some doctor or aid person in a car or an airplane though....
Easiest way to avoid Ebola is to ground all flights from Africa. If it saves one child it would be worth it
I will remember to not participate in the new MSNOW series “Dancing with the Dead” ...or any other direct contact w/corpses or persons bleeding from every orifice in their bodies.
Here we go again.....
If one avoids the practice of coprophagy , then one is likely to avoid this disease...

Advanced societies should be able to control it fairly easy, we can follow instructions to isolate or avoid activities and react to symptoms if they show, and even if things got really bad our bathrooms and homes are very much suited to handling family members, we take ajaxed porcelain, and bleach, hot water, and laundry seriously, even without epidemics.

Not easy to do with the movement among the countries today.
Every thing we eat, clothes we wear, places we go, are also
being visited by others and thus at some point may come in
contact with the decease and spread it to others.

The United States has implemented strict travel restrictions and screening mandates in response to a major Ebola outbreak in Central Africa. [1] (https://www.cdc.gov/ebola/situation-summary/index.html)
Mandatory Ebola Attestation for All Flights
Beginning November 3, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. EST, every passenger boarding an international flight to the United States from any country must sign a digital or paper attestation. This mandate applies universally, including to U.S. citizens, permanent residents (Green Card holders), and airline crew members.

Travelers must formally state that they have not been present in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) (https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=%2Fm%2F088xp) within the past 21 days.
