Doctor Leading Ebola Fight Gets Infected
By Maggie Fox
[ RETRIEVED 24 July 2014 ]
The head doctor fighting the deadly Ebola virus in Sierra Leone has himself caught the disease, the government says.
Sheik Umar Khan, 39, is only the latest health care worker to be felled by the out-of-control outbreak of Ebola virus, which has infected more than 1,000 people and killed more than 600 of them in three West African countries.
The crisis is a “wake-up call,” warning of how budget cuts at global health organizations are weakening the ability to find, and fight, disease outbreaks in time, top health experts say. “This is an unusually difficult outbreak. It’s the largest and most complex outbreak that we have ever seen,” Dr. Keiji Fukuda, assistant director-general of the World Health Organization, said in an interview last week.
“When a crisis is big enough and complicated enough and bad enough, it overwhelms everybody.”
Dozens of nurses and other health care workers have been infected by the virus, and many have died despite efforts to save them with the only tools available – medical support, including hydration and pain killers. There’s no cure for Ebola and no vaccine to prevent it.
Khan, a virologist credited with treating more than 100 Ebola victims, is being cared for by medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders), Sierra Leone’s presidential office said in a statement.
Health minister Miatta Kargbo called Khan a national hero and said she would "do anything and everything in my power to ensure he survives".
Khan told Reuters in late June that he worried about contracting Ebola. "I am afraid for my life, I must say, because I cherish my life," he said in an interview.
"Health workers are prone to the disease because we are the first port of call for somebody who is sickened by disease. Even with the full protective clothing you put on, you are at risk."
The Ebola outbreak started in Guinea's remote southeast in February and has since spread to Sierra Leone and Liberia. It’s the worst outbreak ever recorded of the virus, which causes vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and, most frighteningly, internal and external bleeding. It’s very easy to catch through personal contact and unlike many other diseases, people’s bodies remain infectious after they die, so loved ones can become infected during funeral preparations.
WHO, local governments and non-profit groups like MSF have been struggling to control the outbreak and so far, they say, they are failing.
“I think this has taken everybody by surprise,” Fukuda said.
Dr. Scott Dowell, who heads global health security at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, says budget cuts at WHO are partly to blame. “To me, the situation in West Africa should be a wake-up call. This weakening of an institution on which we all depend on is in no one’s interest,” he said.
WHO has been struggling to deal with budget cuts. The agency depends almost completely on donations from governments, which have been shrinking. It has cut its outbreak and crisis response budget by more than half.
“In my view, there is no way the WHO can respond the way it needs to,” Dowell said.
Fukuda says it’s not so much a matter of money as of being prepared. And in the past year, it seems like infectious disease threats are popping up everywhere – he named the emergence of H7N9 bird flu in China and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) virus, as well as resurgences of polio and Ebola as examples. “For me, it is not a budget issue,” he said. “We are not adequately prepared.”
Every country needs to admit when it needs help, and poor countries need a lot of help not just fighting outbreaks when they happen, but preparing for them. Good surveillance should have been able to catch Ebola early, before it spread, so it could be better controlled.
“Among the communities there is really a high degree of difficulty in understanding the issues,” said Fukuda. There is fear, denial and hostility, he added. “This has made it difficult to identify those who are infected.”

What brought this on? I had a dream.
Do you dream about Marcus much? Less and less as I get older.
I still think about him.
Every now and then.
What do you think about? How if he were still alive, there would be no us.
No Ethan.
Without Marcus dying, we may have never even met.
Maybe you'd still be with him.
Well, you know what? I think we always end up where we're supposed to.

You were alone the whole time? Well, that's why they call it a solo mission.

Molly, was there an emergency that I didn't hear about, an international crew that docked? No.
Why? You're pregnant.

CHAPTER 7
FINANCE
Once a month he still awoke on sweaty sheets after reliving the former reality of watching people march into a building from which no one ever emerged alive… and always in the nightmare someone with a cruel young SS face beckons to him to follow them in there, too, because he needs a shower. Oh, no, he protests in the dream, Hauptsturmfuhrer Brandt needs me in the metalworking shop. Not today, Jude, the young SS noncom says, with that ghastly smile, Komm jetzt zum Brausebad Every time. he walks as bidden, for what else could one do, right to the door-and then every time he awakes, damp with perspiration, and sure that had he not awakened, he would not have awakened at all, just like all the people he'd watched march that way.
There are many kinds of fear, and Klaus Rosenthal had the worst of all. His was the certainty that he would die at the hands of one of them, the bad Germans, the ones who simply didn't recognize or care about the humanity of others, and there was no comfort in the certainty of it
And that kind wasn't all gone, wasn't all dead yet. One was right in his field of view, looking back at him, his machine gun in his hands, looking at Rosenthal and the others in the kitchen like Objekte, mere objects. The other staff members, all Christians, had never experienced this, but Klaus Rosenthal had, and he knew what to expect and knew that it was a certainty. His nightmare was real, risen from the past to fulfill his destiny

After all, everyone inside the buildings would have the "B" vaccine shot, and even if Shiva got in, there wasn't supposed to be any danger.

Mancheck is a liar, and you are a racist fool! Yeah? How many died in that outbreak in shanghal? That's enough, both of you.
It's growing? That's right.
Now the first time it displayed that behavior it was unprovoked.
So is what we just saw some kind of nonspecific growth response Or a sentient reaction to injury? Maybe it just doesn't like being poked? I think we need to focus more on structure, What is andromeda made of.
Bill, you and charlene, do an amino acid workup While tsi does a spectro-Analysis.

That is, unless you think i'm a security risk, bill? I trust you, tsi.

I appreciate the lift, man.

No problem, man.
It's important to see your family when they ship out.
You never know, know what i mean? What happened in shanghal? It was a different time back then.
The international treaties on biowarfare were toothless.
Every country, including yours, was experimenting.
We were field testing a weaponized version Of hemorrhagic smallpox at an outdoor laboratory.
It proved much, uh, hardier than we expected.
A young girl in a fishing boat Caught the disease, brought it back to the city.
It killed 107 people, before we could contain it.
There were people in both our governments Who were prepared to unleash unimaginable horrors.
I like to think that in the end reason prevailed, But maybe we were just very, very lucky.

DYING FLAME
Kirk Maclean's job at the Project was to keep an eye on the environmental support systems, mainly the air conditioning and the over-pressurization system, whose installation he didn't really understand. After all, everyone inside the buildings would have the "B" vaccine shot, and even if Shiva got in, there wasn't supposed to be any danger. But he supposed that John Brightling was merely being redundant in his protective systems thinking, and that was okay with him. His daily work was easily dealt with- it mainly involved checking dials and recording systems, all of which were stuck in the very center of normal Operating ranges-and then he felt like a ride. He walked into the transport office and took a set of keys for a Project Hummer, then headed out to the barn to get his horse. mother twenty minutes, and he'd saddled his quarter horse and headed north, cantering across the grassland. through the lanes in the wheat fields where the farm mac lines turned around, taking his time through one of the prairie-dog towns, and heading generally toward the Interstate highway that formed the northern edge of the Project's real estate. About forty minutes into the ride, he saw something unusual.
Like every rural plot of land in the American West, this one had a resident buzzard population. Here, as in most such places, they were locally called turkey buzzards, regardless of the actual breed, large raptors that ate carrion and were distinctive for their size and their ugliness - black feathers and naked red-skinned heads that carried large powerful beaks designed for ripping flesh off the carcasses of dead animals. They were Nature's garbage collectors or Nature's own morticians, as some put it important parts of the ecosystem, though distasteful to some. He saw about six of them circling something in the tall grass to the northeast. Six was a lot then he realized that there were more still, as he spotted the black angular shapes in the grass from two miles away. Something large had evidently died, and they had assembled to clean - eat - it up. They were careful, conservative birds. Their circling and examination was to ensure that whatever they saw and smelled wasn't still alive, and hence able to jump up and injure them when they came down to feed. Birds were the most delicate of creatures, made mostly for air, and needing to be in perfect condition to fly and survive.
What are they eating? Maclean wondered

THE GAMES BEGIN
Then came Phase Two. Horizon Corporation would manufacture and distribute the "A" vaccine, turn it out III thousand-liter lots, and send it all over the world by express flights to nations whose public-health-service physicians and nurses would be sure to inject every citizen they could find. Phase Two would finish the job begun with the global panic that was sure to result from Phase One. Four to six weeks after being injected, the "A" recipients would start to become ill. So, three weeks from today, Gearing thought, plus six weeks or so, plus two weeks, plus another six, plus a final two. A total of nineteen weeks, not even half a year, not even a full baseball season, and well over ninety-nine percent of the people on the earth would be dead. And the planet would be saved.

BLOOD WORK
It was hours later when the dawn again awoke Popov in his motel-like room. He'd fallen quickly into a routine, first turning on his coffeemaker, then going into the bathroom to shower and shave, then coming out ten minutes later to switch on CNN. The lead story was about the Olympics. The world had become so dull. He remembered his first field assignment to London, as in his hotel he'd watched CNN comment and report on East-West differences, the movement of armies and the growth of suspicion between the political groups that had defined the world of his youth. He especially remembered the strategic issues so often misreported by journalists, both print rind electronic: MIRVs and missiles, and throw weight, and ABM systems that had supposedly threatened to upset the balance of power. All things of the past now, Popov told himself.

And 14 weeks ago, I was in space.
I put the family in the spaceship so that they'd be safe.
Safe from what? Extinction.
Why didn't you call me? I was worried.
I just couldn't.
I'm sorry.
If you're not ready to talk about what's going on with you, that's fine.
Is that why you haven't told John? What? That I had a vision of my dead boyfriend and now I'm pregnant with something I can't explain? Harmon is alive.
He told me not to trust the ISEA or anybody.
They'll follow you, they'll force you into quarantine, and if you tell anybody, nobody will believe you! Not even the people you love.
HIDEKI: With Molly, there can be no doubt.
You think we found them? I think they're already here.

Barton's car there with the surveillance drone.
Sam Barton knows? She knows there's a baby.
That must have come as something of a surprise.
She was with Molly through all of her infertility courses at the Medical Center.
All unsuccessful.
She was pregnant once, but she lost it.
It was a previous relationship.
Who's this? Marcus Dawkins.
They met in the Ascendants Program.
There was an automobile accident before he had a chance to go up.
And that's how she lost the baby? Mm-hmm.
We have to contain this before she tells anybody else.
I'll take care of Molly.
What are you gonna tell her? Something more believable than the truth.
(sighs) I'm sorry.
For what? I feel like it's my fault.
No, no, Molly.
Hey.
It's not.
We'll try again.
I don't know if I can.
Then we'll stop.
Or we'll wait.
They're making advancements in stem cells every day.
There's a lab in Lucerne that's on the verge of creating an oocyte.
I mean, maybe we can pull some strings and get in a trial.
But that's still experimental.
Well, it's a possibility.
I don't want possibilities anymore.
I want something concrete.
I want tangible.
(sighs) I don't want to be disappointed.
We've been doing this for so long.
Maybe we have to just face the facts that this isn't for us.

Yesterday morning, before I watched that episode, I was getting out of the shower and I was wondering, "Who is actually the biological father of all Melinda Gates children?" I wondered if they stole my biological information. After this episode, I wondered about that headline I scanned a few days ago, on Seattle PI's website, I think, that was titled "Melinda Gates: What we can learn from Coke" or words to that effect. We know for a fact that Bill Gates is a female and we know for a fact that Melinda Gates is a female.
Now, I may not be in full contact with my faculities as a medical doctor, thank God, and I might not have conscious awareness of my advanced training as a medical doctor, or even medium training, or even basic medical doctor training, but I know enough to know with absolute certainty that girl-girl sexual intercourse will never, under any circumstances, in the million years humans have existed, result in biological reproduction to produce another human being.

STALKERS
"I can do that, John," the Director of Central Intelligence said. "It means talking to the Pentagon, however."
"Today if possible, Ed. We really need this. I was remiss in not considering the need earlier. Seriously remiss." Clark added humbly.
"It happens," DCI Foley observed. "Okay, let me make some calls and get back to you." He broke the connection and thought for a few seconds, then flipped through his rolodex, and found the number of CINC-SNAKE, as the post was laughingly called. Commander in Chief, Special Operations Command at MacDill Air Force Base outside Tampa, Florida, was the boss of all the "snake eaters," the special-operations people from whom Rainbow had drawn its American personnel. General Sam Wilson was the man behind the desk, not a place he was especially comfortable. He'd started off as an enlisted man who'd opted for airborne and ranger training, then moved into Special Forces, which he'd left to get his college degree i" history at North Carolina State University, then returned to the Army as a second lieutenant and worked his way up the ladder rapidly. A youthful fifty-three, he had four shiny stars on his shoulders now and was in charge of a unified multiservice command that included members from each of the armed services

Wish You Were Here
You were right.
I didn't think there was a chance in hell that it could be true, but it is.
What is? There's a covert program in the Medical Center.
They've been conducting experiments on astronauts, all off the books.
For all I know, this is the tip of the iceberg.
Why would they do that? It was an experimental treatment to reverse your anovulation.
Nanotech, set to time release.
They picked you because you still had samples in storage from your infertility courses.
So it's ours? Yours and John's.
Well, why wouldn't they just ask me? It was a blind test, Molly.
Given your history, they didn't want anything to impede the possibility of success.
I'll know more tomorrow.
Right now, my primary concern is you.
There's something else going on.
Your brain scans are identical to Harmon Kryger's.
Which makes me think you're suffering the same hallucinations he did before he killed himself.
I'd feel a lot better if you'd come in and get checked out.
No, no, no.
I just got home; I'm not going into quarantine.
I'm not talking about quarantine.
I'm talking about a day or two in the hospital with somebody you trust, like Sam.
John and Ethan can come whenever they want.
You're right.
I was supposed to protect you, and I didn't.
And I intend to take full responsibility for that.
This is going to end a lot of careers, including mine.
But before I show myself to the door, I'd like to do everything in my power to make this right.
I got to go.
- I'm out of here.
- Molly Molly, I hope you'll let me help.

The rides here were the things that drew people most of all, and so the walkways had been planned to lead people to the more spectacular of them. The big expensive ones were pretty spectacular. His own kids loved to ride them, especially the Dive Bomber, atop-hanging coaster that looked fit to make a fighter pilot lose his lunch, next to which was the Time Machine, a virtual reality ride that accommodated ninety-six guests per seven-minute cycle any longer and some patrons could get violently ill, tests had shown. Out of that and it was time for some ice cream or a drink, and there were concessions planted right there to answer the cravings. Farther away was Pepe's, an excellent sit-down restaurant specializing in Catalonian cuisine-you didn't put restaurants too close to the rides. Such attractions were not complementary, since watching the Dive Bomber didn't exactly heighten the appetite, and for adults, neither did riding it. There was a science and an art to setting up and operating theme parks like this one, and Mike Dennis was one of the handful of people in the world who knew how it was done, which explained his enormous salary and the quiet smile that went with his sips of wine, as he watched his guests enjoy the place. If this was work, then it was the best job in the world. Even the astronauts who rode the space shuttle didn't have this sort of satisfaction. He got to play with his toy every day. They were lucky to fly twice in a year. His lunch completed, Dennis rose and walked back toward his office on Strada Espana, the Spanish Main Street, the central spoke on the partial wheel. It was another fine day at Worldpark, the weather clear, the temperature twenty-one Celsius, the air dry and pure. The rain in Spain did not, in his experience, stay mainly in the plain. The local climate was much like California's, which, he reflected, went just fine with the Spanish language of the majority of his employees. On the way, he passed one of the park security people. Andre, the name tag said, and the language tag on the other shirt pocket said he spoke Spanish, French, and English. Good, Dennis thought. They didn't have enough people like that.
The meeting place was prearranged. The Dive Bomber ride used as its symbol the German Ju-87 Stuka, complete to the Iron Cross insignia on the wings and fuselage, though the swastika on the tail had been thoughtfully deleted. It ought to have greatly offended Spanish sensibilities, Andre thought. Did no one remember Guernica, that first serious expression of Nazi Grausarnkeit, when thousands of Spanishcitizens had been massacred? Was historical appreciation that shallow here? Evidently it was. The children and adults in line frequently reached out to touch the half-scale model of the Nazi aircraft that had dived on both soldiers and civilians with its "Trumpet of Jericho" siren. The siren was replicated as part of the ride itself, though on the hundred-fifty-meter first hill, the screams of the riders as often as not drowned it out, followed by the compressed-air explosion and fountain of water at the bottom when the cars pulled out through simulated flak bursts for the climbing loop into the second hill after dropping a bomb on a simulated ship. Was he the only person in Europe who found the symbology here horrid and bestial?
Evidently so. People raced off the ride to rejoin the line to ride it again, except for those who bumbled off to recover their equilibrium, sometimes sweating, and twice, he'd seen, to vomit. A cleanup man with a mop and bucket stood by for that - not the choicest job in Worldpark. The medical-aid post was a few meters farther away, for those who needed it. Andre shook his head. It served the bastards right to feel ill after choosing to ride that hated symbol of fascism.
Jean-Paul, Rene, and Juan appeared almost together close to the entrance of the Time Machine, all sipping soft drinks. They and the five others were marked by the hats they'd bought at the entrance kiosk. Andre nodded to them, rubbing his nose as planned. Rene came over to him.
"Where is the men's room?" he asked in English.
"Follow the signs," Andre pointed. "I get off at eighteen hours. Dinner as planned?"
"Yes."
"All are ready?"
"Entirely ready, my friend."
"Then I will see you at dinner." Andre nodded and walked off, continuing his patrol as he was paid to do, while his comrades walked about, some taking the time to enjoy the rides, he imagined. The park would be even busier tomorrow, he'd been told at the morning briefing session. Another nine-thousand-plus would be checking into the hotels tonight or tomorrow morning in preparation for the bank-holiday weekend in this part of Europe, for Good Friday. The park was set up for mobs of people, and his fellow security personnel had told him all manner of amusing stories about the things that happened here. Four months earlier, a woman had delivered twins in the medical post twenty minutes after riding the Dive Bomber, much to her husband's surprise and the delight of Dr. Weiler - the children had been awarded lifetime passes to Worldpark on the spot, which had made the local TV news, part of the park's genius for public relations. Maybe she'd named the boy Troll, Andre snorted, as he spotted one ahead. The Trolls were shortleg/massive-head costumes worn by petite females, he'd learned on coming to work. You could tell by the skinny legs that fit in to the huge feet-shoes they wore. There was even a water supply in the costume to make the monstrous lips drool… and over there was a Roman legionnaire dueling comically with a Germanic barbarian. One of them would alternately run from the other, usually to the applause of the people sitting down to watch the spectacle.
He turned to walk over to the German Strasse, and was greeted by the oom-pah music of a marching band - why didn't they play the Horst Wessel Lied? Andre wondered. It would have gone well with the damned green Stuka. Why not dress the band in SS black, maybe have compulsory shower baths for some of the guests wasn't that part of European history, too? Damn this place! Andre thought. The symbology was designed to incur the rage of anyone with the most rudimentary political awareness. But, no, the masses had no memory, no more than they had any understanding of political and economic history. He was glad they'd chosen this place to make their political statement. Maybe this would get the idiots to think, just a little bit, perhaps, about the shape of the world. The mis-shape, Andre corrected himself, allowing himself a very un-Worldpark frown at the sunny day and smiling crowds.
