Epidemic faster than control.

Ebola virus.
By land and air, ebola stocking death of the Dark Continent.
For the umpteenth time again focused the world's attention to Africa as ebola. The deadly virus is infecting the population back the Dark Continent, especially the four West African countries, namely Guyana, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Nigeria. This time the impact and spread of ebola region is the largest in history, all countries around the world also should be wary.
A world without limits makes everything that happens in one country can spread easily to other countries, including ebola outbreak who was born in Guyana in February. As a human who can easily travel from one place to another, so with the ebola virus.
If humans migrated with a taxi, plane, train or ship, ebola virus was the same. Some infectious disease experts stated that Ebola is spread very quickly, but the possibility of a virus "fly" to another continent is very low.
The most important thing is keep an eye on those who may have direct contact with people with ebola or may have contracted the virus.
So far, the official head of the British health safety agency stated that the transmission of the virus still involve direct contact, therefore the government should focus on the supervision of new residents arrived from West Africa.
Meanwhile, African countries also have to keep an eye on the movement of people by land across the border. Ebola virus is not the deadliest or most contagious, but direct contact between humans could be one of the easiest ways to distribute it.
The spread of ebola from Africa to Asia or to Europe is still possible, especially transcontinental flight makes the shorter distance.
Government of the United States with Germany and France issuing a ban on traveling to West Africa, despite such countries were still preparing for the spread of ebola in their region.
United States even has prepared an isolation room at the hospital to welcome some new citizens returning from West Africa and possibly infected with ebola. That needs to be aware of are those who show flu-like symptoms, because they are already badly infected would not have been able to travel due to internal and external bleeding. Those who show such symptoms should be isolated and undergo intensive examination.
Based on a common understanding, the Philippine government also isolate 20 workers who had just returned from Sierra Leone in June and July. Even though it looks healthy, the workers have to undergo a series of tests in advance, and they must be proactive because they know there is a serious threat from the region (West Africa) and they do not want a surprise.
For the safety and comfort with, the government isolate those workers for a month. Every day the medical team to monitor the development of their health until the quarantine period expires. Philippines not only enforces the rules for its citizens, but also for those who transit in the Philippines had to undergo the same procedure. So far the Philippines is still free from ebola.
Twenty workers who could potentially carry the virus was still healthy. Nevertheless, the government still enforce preventive measures, because there are 3,491 Filipinos are now working in Guyana, Liberia and Sierra Leone.
Since last July 4, the government imposed a ban on traveling to three West African country. Meanwhile, WHO has been monitoring developments only ebola outbreak in West Africa began to act. WHO Director General Margaret Chan warned the president of the three affected countries to remain vigilant ebola outbreak. The epidemic is moving much faster than efforts to control. Moreover, the number of deaths due to ebola already exceeded 729 souls. If the situation worsens, the impact of this outbreak could be disastrous, not only because it claimed many lives, but also cause social and economic disruption. Since erupted last February, ebola affects about 1,300 people, and now they are infected with ebola must undergo intensive treatment at the hospital.
In a meeting with West African leaders in the City of Conakry, Guyana to the public are advised to be vigilant, although not the most dangerous virus, ebola should not be given the space to breed.
Mutation and adaptation is a mechanism to survive all types of viruses and microbes, then we should not give them that opportunity.
