This is how African newspapers are covering EBOLA..
NOTE.. The ‘burn all bodies’ headline in the lower left.. I think this sufficiently answers my question from last night is in which I asked what will be done with bodies that have suffered death at the hands of the outbreak: Burning.
Meanwhile: Africa has sealed off the Ebola epicenter. A little interesting that, after all the deaths, they are finally doing this..
The AFP reports this:
Opening the summit, WHO chief Margaret Chan told leaders that the response of the three countries to the epidemic had been “woefully inadequate”, revealing that the outbreak was “moving faster than our efforts to control it”.
"If the situation continues to deteriorate, the consequences can be catastrophic in terms of lost lives but also severe socio-economic disruption and a high risk of spread to other countries," Chan said.
She described the outbreak as “by far the largest ever in the nearly four-decade history of this disease”.
"It is taking place in areas with fluid population movements over porous borders, and it has demonstrated its ability to spread via air travel, contrary to what has been seen in past outbreaks," she told the summit.
"Cases are occurring in rural areas which are difficult to access, but also in densely populated capital cities. This meeting must mark a turning point in the outbreak response."
The meeting came after Dubai’s Emirates became the first global airline to announce it was suspending flights to the stricken area, while the United States, Germany, France and Italy have issued warnings against travel to the three African countries.
US President Barack Obama announced on Friday that the United States will screen delegates travelling from Ebola-hit countries to Washington for a three-day Africa summit next week.
The summit must go on.

Ebola breaks out on a scale never seen before
I think we all need to be paying attention to this story.. Not only is humanity having a terrible time in Africa where Ebola has resumed killing, but it’s now a burdensome mission for all nations to stop the spread.
We are more connected than ever.. we travel more than any time in history. And Ebola is as deadly as it has ever been—it appears that it’s newfound mission is to spread beyond the borders of the nations where it dwells..
Maybe go back and watch that deplorably bad 1995 movie OUTBREAK. Graphics are bad and shoulder pads were big.. but it’s a lesson on what we do not want to have happen on this planet.
