UN AGENCY URGES VIGILANCE AMID EBOLA OUTBREAK IN GUINEA, SIERRA LEONE
AND LIBERIANew York, Mar 28 2014 5:00PMWith a total of 103 suspected
and confirmed cases of Ebola in Guinea, including 66 deaths, the
outbreak must be watched very carefully, a spokesperson for the United
Nations health agency said today, noting that there is no treatment or
cure for the frequently fatal disease.

"A lot of those cases still are only suspect cases," Gregory Hartl of
the World Health Organization (WHO) told reporters in Geneva. "Local
health authorities will report any number of syndromic cases that
resemble Ebola but turn out not to be. So we don't expect all of these
cases to end up confirmed in the end.

"However, on the other hand, there are probably other cases out there
which we don't know of yet. So this is an extremely fluid situation."

Both Sierra Leone and Liberia have reported suspected cases and deaths
consistent with Ebola to the UN health agency among people who had
travelled to Guinea before the onset of symptoms. Mr. Hartl said the
cases in Sierra Leone and Liberia that are known to WHO have an
epidemiological link with Guinea. As of now, the agency does not
recommend that any travel or trade restrictions be applied to any of
the three countries.

The Ebola virus, which first appeared in 1976 in two simultaneous
outbreaks in Sudan and Democratic Republic of the Congo, causes Ebola
virus disease (EVD) in humans, with a case fatality rate of up to 90
per cent.

Ebola is introduced into the human population through close contact
with the blood, secretions, organs or other bodily fluids of infected
animals. In Africa, infection has been documented through the handling
of infected chimpanzees, gorillas, fruit bats, monkeys, forest
antelope and porcupines found ill or dead or in the rainforest.

Ebola then spreads in the community through human-to-human
transmission, with infection resulting from direct contact (through
broken skin or mucous membranes) with the blood, secretions, organs or
other bodily fluids of infected people, and indirect contact with
environments contaminated with such fluids.

"It's not a disease which normally causes a large number of cases,"
said Mr. Hartl. "It's a disease which is very traumatic. It's a
disease which kills large percentages of the people it infects...
there's no treatment, there's no medicine, there's no vaccine. So you
are very much at the whim of the disease and you can only just hope
that your body is strong enough for its natural defences to fight off
the disease.

"We need to watch this extremely carefully because there is no
treatment, there is no cure, and the course of the disease is, more
often than not, fatal."Mar 28 2014 5:00PM
