"U.N. agency: Number of Ebola cases now tops 16,000" by Tashina Amiro

So it turns out that Ebola isn't under control, but it is instead not mentioned so the people falsely believe that everything is under control. In total, there has been over 16,000 cases with 7,000 deaths. Hundreds of people contract the disease each week; there continues to be cases in the U.S. Even with all this happening, there is still not a vaccine.

Why are the people not made aware of all these people that are still contracting the disease in the U.S.? I haven't heard about a case in a while, so I assumed everything was under control; media has even said that possible cures and such had been found. It goes to show you that you can't trust the media, because everything stems from the government. We will be told what they want us to hear and that's usually not the truth. Basically, none of this adds up. I am so confused on the situation and it angers me. Get with the program people, we have already lost thousands of people.

  2. This sucks. I bet the U.S. doesn't know about it because they want to keep it out of our minds or something; but considering how often we get involved in other foreign affairs, that doesn't make sense. I hadn't heard about it either! It's terrible that the media ties into the government so completely, because it dictates what we do and don't find out about. The best ways to help Ebola victims in Africa are probably spreading awareness and donating to organizations there
