In West Africa , esp. Ghana , Sierra Leone , Liberia , the death toll from Ebola is over 450. I'm interested in this event b/c Ebola represents a recent ( 20 yrs ) example of diseases that transfer from animal to human populations.
Nothing new in the mechanism of infection but full of insight about human interaction w/ the natural environment and human encroachment into previously ,wild and un - human containing places.
The human tragedy is remarkable. The fear that the onset of disease causes is alarming itself. The UN commission on health has declared the Ebola outbreak on the verge of the limits of current medical facilities.
Reports have emerged that indicate medical staff evacuating facilities out of fear. There will be a movie about this one.
Ah , let me guess , someone ( an American ) goes in and solves the crisis. I would have mentioned a Canadian but our government is so out of touch , Canada would send help after the movie came out.
In truth , there are doctors working diligently , in difficult to preposterous conditions to help stem the outbreak.
Weather :A break in the humidity slightly. Temperatures fall slightly and the rain although possible for to -day, goes away for 6- 7 days.
We slept in the bedroom. All that I can smell is paint. It didn't affect my sleep. Go figure.
Aesthetically , looks good.
We transposed a lithograph of a wildlife scene - pond, egret and other animalia - done in blue (of course ) with gold highlights ( to match the light fixture bases ). The whole scene is oriental in tone and composition. This litho is temporary but we wanted some piece of decoration to give us ideas about what is best suited for the wall.
Can you get Ebola from smelling and sleeping in latex paint fumes.
find that one on the internet , why don't you ?
If so , I've got Ebola , for sure.
Getting ready for your 4 th of July , down there , south of the GWN
