Ebola out break

Liberia, Africa

The Ebola outbreak approximately began in March 2014. There has been 7492 cases of Ebola and 3439 deaths from this cause. This out break started in Africa and the country to have the most deaths and out breaks is Liberia, Africa. Following with 3834 cases and 2069 deaths from this deadly virus/syndrome.

Symptoms: Blood starts leaking/ bleeding into the eye, leads to shock and death and bleeding from the inside to outside, blood pressure lowering,

Scientist think that since there aren't really any food source of meet Africans usually eat monkeys (i.e bush meat) and since we are closely evolved that we are basically eating our own kind and something must have gone wrong in the blood process.

Dr. Preston Mark discovered HIV 2 in a local pet monkey in a near by village some where in Liberia.
Lofa is a trading center where hunters would bring in the meat to be traded and paid but now closed. Liberian government banished bush meat for health concerns but that's what people can only afford to eat.



Most of the people that live in Liberia think that Ebola is not real it is just Africa's way of getting more money for the government from other countries.

Some say that by eating a monkey you will get Ebola and that's why the Liberia government shut down selling bush meat to the Liberian people because they want to try to reduce the cases of Ebola outbreak.

Scientists have found that humans have contained the same virus that was found in the monkey and by cutting your finger while preparing the bush meat this can transfer the virus and put their health at high risks.
By cutting your finger then touching the meat this is where disease transition can occur.

Ebola has become a serious matter, but it has always been serious it just wasn't a big deal at first but now it has gotten worse and people are starting to become more cautious on what they do in life so they can prevent getting any sort of virus.
