MSF's Dr. Philippe Calain talks about the ebola virus

[mosa2331]

Show me one EUROPEAN victim of EBOLA?

[mosa2331]

EBOLA is an RNA molecule that does not live like a creature. However it moves within the host cells when it comes in contact with DNA molecule

[MODEPIIC]

It's harder to find a cure for this then cancer. Btw we're really close to finding a cancer cure.

[ChristopherSaindon]

One "good" thing about it IS the savage nature of the illness and the rapid onset of death. If Ebola were to have a dormant period of let's say 2 weeks, a victim or two not yet suffering any symptoms could access international transportation and get this into a major population center. It is an unbelievably deadly virus which killed on the order of 90%+ of it's victims in the 70s.

[Jaugera]

Created or not, it doesn't negate the fact that these people need help. We should all be looking for ways that we can help get more research done, improve hospital settings, as well as getting education to the public as to how real the risks are with this virus. The virus DOESN'T CARE who it kills, therefore we need to care rather than bicker like children. 90-95% mortality rate doesn't provoke more than stupid comments? Simply amazing.

[tomjennings1982]

Please note: Non recorded means exactly that. Rural villages in remote areas either dont know to report, or all die before they can. Ebola may have been around for millions of years, we simply don't know. For all you conspiracy peddlers, as of yet, we can't create life. That includes viruses.

[tehloserisyou]

@tomjennings1982 i dont side with consiracy theorists, but viruses are not life. they dont show all of the characteristics of life and they cant reproduce on their own so they cant be considered an organism. Viruses are in their own unique catagory.

@tomjennings1982 Craig Venter

[Nikotehwolf]

@tomjennings1982 Oh yeah of course not, its not like we do that in labs every day, spawning new strains of a virus, or genetic modification, naw of course not. man ur dumb

[NFLAdam86]

"The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston is a true story about the Ebola outbreak, and about him personallly encountering it. This shit is scary, I mean..your cells are bursting and your bodily internals are turning to mush. Your vomitting that up as well. Fucked up shit that god put on this earth.

[amyalewine]

@NFLAdam86 God had nothing to do with the Ebola Virus or the Aids virus. The governments who worship Lucifer created these Weapons of Mass Death. God has nothing to do with man made virus's

[NFLAdam86]

@amyalewine My beliefs on illumnati's and freemasons are very strong. They do exist, I agree, and definitely influence our music and movie industry as well as general society. I think it's highly unlikely that governments have made this, because prior to 1976, there were virtually no cases like this. In general science, some odd statistic like 7 out of 10 proteins or DNA strands or something like that in the Ebola virus are unknown. There would be a higher biological warefare fear as well.

@amyalewine Also, go to the bottom of the related videos section and view 'Elbows-Deep in Ebola Virus - Richard Preston' Look at the highest rated comment at the top. Support.

I do not belief about the origine of ebola. It probably come from a lab in s-africa or brought from fort detrick. Poor isolated african populations are used for experiments.

[Migdog14]

@Za7a7aZ goverment conspiracy hippie much?

[o0OMarijuanaO0o]

@Migdog14 Go play call of duty and let the grown ups talk

[Migdog14]

@o0OMarijuanaO0o Go smoke your marijuana 

[o0OMarijuanaO0o]

@Za7a7aZ indeed! I recommend Leonard Horowitz's book on aids and ebola, if you have not read it already...

[MetusModus]

Pre 1976 there were no recorded cases of ANY Ebola virus. Begs the question exactly where did this virus evolve from? Is there a similar strain that this came from?

[Strutingeagle]

It is very important to speak of ebola in presence of map of Uganda. That way we know it is in Africa where the remote areas initiates transmition cycle by the dead animales and can be known to international community.

[spc220]

He said that he would not do this without the map in the background.

[sleaze777]

sounds to be govt disease since no reports of outbreaks before

[P3313]

Interesting. Did you say the natural host for the virus was bats or monkeys?

[iseededppl]

Informative...basically your screwed ! ! Smart guy...

[rushistheawesomest]

Uhh I'm uuhhhhh stupid uhhh

[hedgehoghoodlum]

I also needed this for school. Thanks!

[robertus911]

WHAT ARE HAPPENING TO MY COMMENT

[befrankis]

YOU DONE NOT GOOD ENGLISH lol

[Halo3TricksFan1]

You have gave me much information for my schoolwork Thanks for the video
