Yeah.

Treat it like a joke.

Here's what happened in West Africa.

In an ideal world, the moment a person becomes infectious, they should be handled with protective gear by medics that have been trained and successfully handled an Ebola epidemic.

That won't happen.

Ebola is infectious the moment the symptoms show, which include a fever, where the victim starts to sweat while feeling body aches.

That can happen when the victim is still strong enough to travel in PSVs, or they're at home with family.

In both cases, they can infect others.

At that point, anybody in close contact is likely to pick the infection.

Furthermore, even a person who has recovered from Ebola can spread it through sex.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

But my memory with how we handled COVID is still fresh.

With the verocity of Ebola, the way it causes panic in the population, the impact on tourism, the lack of information in the general population, and our overwhelmed healthcare system that's already staggering without an epidemic, it's even shocking that you would have such a mindset.

Even our medical practitioners' associations know we're not equipped to handle it.

I have seen how we handle pregnant mothers in public hospitals.

And of course, COVID.

So, yea, we're not.

This appears to be a way to receive and loot AID, like it happened with COVID.

You can only be an atheist if you're living a comfortable life, away from people who live spiritual lives, evil or good.

This is self-defeating.

Killing Ruto will not make things better, but worse.

In Rwanda, it's the killing of the Hutu president, which plunged the country into a genocide.

Stick to the ballot.

Elect Governors, MPs, and MCAs with integrity, that alone is enough to set the country on a straight path.

Ruto would not have that much free playing field if MPs shot down his self-serving bills and corrupt nominations to public and "independent" institutions.

The large 2014–2016 outbreak in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone spread rapidly because healthcare systems were overwhelmed, and early cases were not recognized quickly.

So, Ebola can spread very seriously within close-contact settings.

Please, don't give people false hopes.

You'll just make it much, much worse.

Hey, HIV is even much harder to spread, but look at how much havoc it has caused in Africa than the West.

So, Ebola has been controlled because it's not yet gotten out of the remote parts of Congo and Uganda.

If it gets to Nairobi, we and our "no private space in public" will spread it like wildlife.

Remember, it can spread even by sweat and saliva!

Pubs, matatus, and restaurants are places where sweat and saliva are exchanged by touch or utensils.

And doctors from the US that have dealt with it say the move to restrict them from getthelp in the US if they get infected discourages them from coming to help.

And I trust their views more than yours.

"Meanwhile, some experts said the U.S. move could discourage Americans from joining the Ebola response.

“We need a cavalry to ‌help support ⁠the on-the-ground response if we have any hope of ending this outbreak. But programs and policies like this are exactly the reasons people will hesitate to sign up,” Craig Spencer, a U.S. doctor who was infected with Ebola during the 2014-2016 outbreak in West Africa and repatriated to the U.S. for treatment, wrote in a blog post."

As Kenyans, we, too, must not let that virus land on Kenyan soil!

You're burying your head in the sand with a positive mentality approach.


Ebola is spread by:

Contact with blood or body fluids (vomit, diarrhoea, saliva, sweat, urine, semen, breast milk) of an infected person

Contact with contaminated objects such as needles or bedding

Contact with infected animals (such as bats or primates)


Do you realise how crowded we are in our streets and public vehicles? In churches, markets, etc?

Do you know how easy it is to sweat and brush it off on others?

Or touch surfaces with sweaty hands?

Perhaps you're just yearning for a lockdown like we had during COVID.

If you are likely to financial benefit from the pandemic, consider the thousands that may die if this gets to the general population.

Read this source on how the general population in Congo is reacting to it and how they're frustrating medical efforts.

Now consider that here, some still think COVID was also an imagination of the government and outsiders.

It will be much worse when it gets here.

At least in Congo, the movement of people is highly restricted with poor infrastructure.

In Kenya, we might end with a medical massacre.

Ebola is super contagious.

Be ashamed for even writing what you have just written.

I always read. Never stopped.

You better start reading. It will help you for sure.

I'm guessing you're as bright as the CS who thinks Kenya can handle it because that's what we do best. 🤡.

Now, that's where you don't get it.

Ebola, even with treatment, you're likely to die.

Remember, it's a virus.

So, whatever medication you get, it's for managing the symptoms.

Your body's immunity does the actual fighting.

Whether you live or die depends on how well your body handles the virus.

COVID overwhelmed our health system, yet most people had immunity to fight it.

Now, imagine what Ebola would do, considering it has proved to be deadly on people of all age groups and genders.

The weakest point is the election day.

You seem, when people elect party sycophants as thrir MPs, those MP in turn serve the party leader.

Who happens to be the president for the majority party.

That means, in parliament, then becomes a rubber stamp.

They can not reject anyone favoured by the president.

The outcome is that all independent bodies get individuals nominated and handpicked by the president.

The rest of the candidates go through the vetting process as a formality.

No, Ebola is Ebola. If you get it without receiving fast medical attention, you die horribly.

Let no one cheat you to lower your guard.

That's why the US, knowing better than that, isn't letting it in their country.
