СЗО предупреди за нова епидемия от ебола в Западна АфрикаОт началото на тази година най-малко 467 души от Западна Африка, заразени с вируса на ебола, са починали, съобщава „Ройтерс”, позовавайки се на данни от нов доклад на Световната здравна организация. Според данните на здравните инспектори смъртните случаи представляват над 50% от общия брой на заболелите, които към днешна дата са 759 души. През последните месеци СЗО периодично предупреждава за опасността от избухване на панафриканска епидемия от ебола, а миналата седмица обяви, че съществува непосредствен риск вирусът на смъртоносното заболяване да се разпространи извън Гвинея, Либерия и Сиера Леоне, които са най-силно засегнати от него. Срещу Ебола все още няма открита ваксина. Една от причините е, че все още не е известен естественият резервоар на вируса в природата. Най-често хората се заразяват от контакт със секретите на вече заразен човек, като все още не е известна причината за спорадичните епидемични взривове на болестта в Африка.
