You Can call a cruel irony that on the African continent did humanity so terrible, currently incurable diseases as AIDS and the Ebola virus. Although it is believed that they helped to be born not only nature, but also the intervention of a certain circle of scientists wishing to create new bacterial weapon, but the fact remains – the deadly disease. The good news in this situation, only one – Ebola, unlike AIDS, is not yet spread to other continents. It was first discovered in the corpses of great apes (as well as AIDS) and some antelopes in 1976.

This terrible disease is a killer of the human organism at the subcellular level. Mortality reaches 90%. Scientists have not yet been determined how individuals do manage to survive after him. There is a perception that the virus has passed several stages of research and only after it was “released”. Like it or not, it is unlikely we will ever know, though greatly surprised his feature, won't spread beyond Africa, as happened with the HIV (AIDS). It is believed that the Ebola virus did not spread massively for the reason that he had almost no asymptomatic period when the patient is a carrier of the disease, not aware of his presence and spreads pathogens around us.

The soldier very quickly learns about the disease, but even with the provision of medical care in most cases he dies shortly after. The virus that causes this disease, is very undemanding. It feels great in living human tissues, and the dead. Ebola doctors belong to the filovirus family (Filoviridae) and is divided into 5 distinct species: Sudan, Zaire, the ivory coast, Bundibugyo, Reston. They are named so for the area, where they had the most outbreaks of this disease. Most widespread epidemics are associated with these highly pathogenic species such as Sudan, Zaire, Bundibugyo.

Ebola is a disease related to hemorrhagic fevers. Infection occurs by direct contact with secretions, blood, organs and tissues of infected object. The most common way of infection remains eating foods infected with the virus. A serious problem for Africa is many countries lack a centralized system for purification of waste water and sewage. Products of human activity often simply asserted and are used to fertilize fields, and the virus in the feces, free cover very large areas. Another problem for residents is the ingress of sewage into rivers and streams where people and animals drink the water.

The Disease can manifest itself, internal and external bleeding. Characterized by a sharp hyperthermia, headache and muscle pain and fatigue. Often it is accompanied by diarrhea, vomiting, rash, impaired functioning of the liver and kidneys. Effective treatment of this disease is not. Doctors often only slightly ease the condition of the patient, eliminating some of the accompanying symptoms.

Unfortunately, in Russia there are often severe viral disease. These include, for example, Omsk hemorrhagic fever. Natural foci of infection were identified in many areas: Omsk, Tyumen, Novosibirsk, Kurgan, Orenburg. The cause of the disease was established by isolating from the blood of infected people and ticks for the virus, close to tick-borne encephalitis. It belongs to the genus Flavivirus in the family Togaviridae. The main sources of infection are considered to be water rats, aquatic birds. To person, the virus enters through the Ixodes ticks Dermacentor marginatus and pictus at the time of the bite. It is not excluded infection of humans through contact with fluids from infected animals through wounds in the skin and mucous membranes in the processing of skins, swimming in reservoirs, as well as food and by water. The disease is recorded from April to September, peaking in may and August.

The incubation Period of the virus – 2-12 days. The disease has an acute onset with a 40 °With fever, chills, flushing, headache, injection sclera. Patients appear muscle pain, especially in the limbs and back. High temperature is observed 3-4 days, then reduced to 10-12 days reaches normal values. In the majority of patients indicated a 2 wave fever with all the symptoms, albeit in less severe form. From the first days of the disease observed bleeding (often nasal). Almost a third of patients developing SARS.

Diagnosis is based on epidemiological history, serology and clinical picture. Immediately hospitalized patients. Treatment is performed by means of detoxification therapy, chloride of calcium, vitamin K, ascorbic acid, glucocorticoids. Often use a serum or globulin of the blood of people who recover from this disease. The prognosis for recovery is usually favorable. I had been ill of this fever, there is a stable immunity to this virus.

Prevention is the Wellness work in the foci (the systematic destruction of aquatic animals, possible sources of the virus). The foci use repellents, protective clothing, inspections to detect and eliminate ticks. Upon detection of the tick to the victim dothe immunization serum from the blood of ill people.
