Tyler Durden's picture Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/25/2014 17:45 -0400ReutersIt's gone from bad (Mapping Africa's "Totally Out Of Control" Ebola Epidemic) to worse, (Head Doctor Fighting Africa's "Out Of Control" Ebola Epidemic Contracts The Virus), to much worse (Liberian Man Tested For Ebola In World's Fourth Most Populous City), to having run out of comparatives - although we are leery of using a superlative just yet as we have a feeling Africa's Ebola's epidemic will deteriorate before it gets better. But the latest news is bad enough: as Reuters reported moments ago, Sierra Leone officials appealed for help on Friday to trace the first known resident in the capital with Ebola whose family forcibly removed her from a Freetown hospital after testing positive for the deadly disease.
American's! Be careful when you're drinking your Starbuck coffee. Make sure it is hot, and do not share it with anyone that has blood coming from their eyes or mouth. Avoid all people with abnormally bulging eyes. And, please notify the proper personnel if you bring anything back with you.
And do not worry that it is the largest death toll since 1976.
No international flights have been cancelled, so do not worry and have a safe trip.
