RE: A crucial time for the Ebola response effort in The Congo

in #steemstem6 years ago

Thanks! Yes that was the first time I'd heard of Ebola now that I think about it. A friend was reading it and explained it to me in great gory detail. I'd be interesting to revisit it again now that I have a bit more knowledge on the topic.

That rate is more down to the setting the disease is occurring in rather than just the disease itself (often through dehydration more than anything else). In a high income country the cases fatality rate would be much much lower than this.
