Ebola: Patient Zero
Ebola: Patient Zero
Summary
Ebola
struck Emile Ouamouno when he was two whom is known as Patient Zero. In December,
his mother, younger sister and grandmother were struck by Ebola too after his
death four days later. Ebola spread quickly and soon 5000 people and relatives
suffered from Ebola worldwide. With the widespread of Ebola, villagers feared
and did not want to buy products from farmers, fearing of suffering from Ebola.
Villagers also intended to burn their possessions and mattresses, resulting in
becoming poorer.
Opinion
I personally think that Ebola is a fatal disease, since it cannot be cured now. It is also deadly as it spreads really quickly. For example, Ebola struck Emile Ouamouno, and soon it was spread to his relatives and the whole village. Within a month, Ebola was spread to other countries such as Guinea, Sierra Leone, United States and Liberia. Ebola is a scary infectious disease, contagious and fatal but we should work together to extinguish this disease and not let it kill others who are innocent.
