On Sunday in the Congo a record of 27 people were reported with the deadly disease Ebola. If you arent aware what ebola is it is a very deadly disease that is spread through contact of fluid. 27 cases a day is alot for this disease. 126 cases a week have been reported since August.  This is the highest amount in one country ever recorded. This is concerning to people not just in the congo but for other people. If more and more people get infected their is more of a chance that it spreads to new countries and kills more and more people.

How would you spread the awarness of Ebola?

I would go to social media and talk about it, I would also talk to big companies about it to see if they could do something about it. 

 

Do you think Ebola is a problem?

Yes we have already had a scare for a outbreak in the US. Their is currently no cure for Ebola and I think we need to do more to search for a cure and contain the area of infection.

  • Your summary is a bit brief and you only replied to one person. -5 late

  • I'd make sure to have it talked about in the news and post awareness on social media. I think it is a problem not only for the Congo but also the entire world if there's ever a major outbreak.

  • I would do my best to let people know. I would post it on social media and let people know it's there and a problem. Ebola is a big problem and is a disease that is hard to cure. I hope that people act fast and are able to fix this before it spreads worldwide.

  • I would try and spread the news on social media but ebola has been around for awhile and people have been hearing about it a lot. I think ebola is a big problem because there have been a lot of people in Africa that have been affected by the disease.

  • I would just share all over social media about what is going on and what people should be aware of, also the news would probably already be talking about it and telling people to be aware. I think it is because everyone worries about getting it and we already had a breakout of it a few years ago and everyone was worried. 

  • Social media and the daily news channels can push the awareness of Ebola and get people knowing about it. Personally, I am not worried about getting affected, but if it actually started to spread rapidly in the US I would start to believe it is a problem for me.

  • A couple ways that I would try to spread the news would eather be on social media or aware news stations to put it on the radio and on newspaper

    I dont think it was for awhile a few years ago it seemed to be a problem and eventually died off but no it seem its comming back 

  • The news would be a good start-also "a lot" has a space in it-but social media is good too. I mean I'd think that any disease that has potential of killing is a problem, but I'm assuming you want a little bit more specific than that.

  • Social media will spread news faster than anything so I would post something on social media. Well yes, ebola is a big problem but I haven't heard anything about Ebola in a while it used to be really bad in Africa and kinda went down for awhile I hope it doesn't come back. 

    • I agree social media would spread it fast. It probably one of the only ways to spread awarness. This is the first time i have heard about it in a while as well.
