Ebola, again
2014-ish?
There was once an active discussion on Ebola, a significant outbreak, lost to forum resets.
Today, i got a notice from my clinic, they want to know about travel to the Congo.
May 2026 / “Former ‘Ebola czar’ on the current outbreak in Africa” [Ron Klain]

June 2026 / WHO / “Ongoing outbreak in Democratic Republic of the Congo”

How unfortunate to have distrust wrt public health matters over politics.

Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.

You don’t know if you are traveling in the DR of Congo? Are you able to look outside and describe what you are seeing?

You never know what God might do and spontaneously send Temp to the Congo.
Temp, you might want to get your passport ready.
