This is a really important point. Ebola in Africa is bad because so many people have no education at all or very little. I don't think compulsory education exists at all in most of these countries. So, superstitious beliefs of their tribes likely would take precedence.
However, the beliefs handed down might not prepare the general populace for a disease that spreads off of dead or dying bodies, especially where touching your relatives in these cultures as they are dying or dead is sacrosanct.
In the U.S. there is not only compulsory education, but also everyone pretty much is used to getting shots or vaccines to prevent illnesses. Almost everyone has a TV set, internet and has been to college for at least one year by age 20 in this country too. Then we have a superior hospital system.
But, here is the problem if you see 1 Ebola patient that means likely there are 12 no one knows about in a country (the U.S. or any other country).
So, if people start to panic all sorts of bad things might happen just like when AIDS first started in the U.S. in the 1980s.
So, staying calm and making a plan of survival for your family might be important right about now.
But, thinking rationally might be important.
And if Ebola gets going at all it is going to be the most dangerous in whatever city or cities that happens in.
So, be calm and make a survival plan for your family if Ebola comes to your City.
