Ebola style virus hits Pakistan


Health authorities are requesting extra resources to cope with the outbreak

A highly contagious disease similar to the dreaded Ebola virus has broken out along Pakistan's border with Afghanistan.


Afghan refugees are particularly at risk from the outbreak

Health authorities are warning of an epidemic among the thousands of Afghan refugees fleeing their homeland in fear of US military strikes.

On Thursday, a Pakistani man became the eighth person to die since June of Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic fever (CCHF).

Dr Taj Mohammad of the Fatimah Jinnah Chest and General Hospital in Quetta said his facility had received a total of almost 70 cases this year.

CCHF is less lethal than the Ebola virus but has similarly horrific symptoms, including massive haemorrhaging from every orifice.

Refugee risk

Most of the latest cases have been reported in Baluchistan, which has become a destination for hundreds of thousands of Afghans fleeing drought and war.
"It's unheard of - very unusual," Dr Mohammad told the Reuters news agency.

"There's a real risk of an epidemic among Afghan refugees," he was quoted as saying.

Seven out of ten people infected by Congo Virus die.

The horrendous sanitary conditions provide an ideal breeding ground for the virus, which is spread by small insects from animals to humans.

Pakistan has closed its borders with Afghanistan, but has already accepted more refugees than it says it can cope with.

Extra resources

The head of Fatimah Jinnah Hospital, Akhlaq Hussain, told the AFP news agency he had written to the federal government appealing for extra resources to cope with the outbreak.

The hospital has set up a special isolation ward.

The virus has surfaced before in the area and was thought to have been brought under control.

Additional:

Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever (CCHF)
First noted by Russian scientists in the Crimea in 1944
Isolated in 1956 in a patient in the Congo
Usual route of infection via the bite of the Hyalomma tick
Can be passed from person to person
Symptoms include fever, chills, headache, vomiting, and pains in the stomach and lower back
This is followed by haemorrhages, nosebleeds, and other blood loss
Seven out ten people who are infected die.

How unlucky can one Nation be? Ravaged by war for decades, under a repressive regime, after a four-year drought, they flee, fearing nukes or starvation, only to find borders closed and aid agencies, gone....to further compound the problem, they now have to be "isolated" due to an "unexpected" outbreak of an Ebola-like virus (US-doctor-engineered-viral-warfare.) I think the globalists have made it quite clear, they are trying to ethnically cleanse the whole region (as in Sudan) for oil.

US doctor created virus indeed! CAN'T YOU READ!

1944, Crimea, gee, I wouldn't think very many US doctors around there then.

Calling CCHF "ebola" because it is somewhat similar in symptoms and also known to exist in Africa causes confusion.

Tick vectored diseases aren't exactly uncommon in war and refugee situations. They often persist in the wild (ie: tick some susceptible mammals) in various areas with humans rarely catching them only because humans aren't getting bitten by the particular ticks involved. The deadly (to humans) "Rocky Mountain Spotted fever" is endemic in much of the US but you don't hear of many people getting it. CCHF disease could perhaps always been there OR gotten there during the war with Russia (Crimea, remember).

my friends web page-(;-)

are you a fed ? You seem to be posting the same post all over the place!! ... ... fuck the rocky mountains of ur good`ol country...these people are suffering suddenly in their own country for real.
germ warfare is germ warfare is germ warfare.......
WHY the outbreak now ?
'This will be a very different war' (your great 'leader'said that)
why now ?
why now ?
why now ?

OK then, Nazi doctors who were secreted into the USA during the Second World War under Operation Paperclip, who continued their experiments in secret unabated, till now.

yes i see, military warpigs whether they be taliban or american, they r both the same, r testing their biological weapons, and who better to test germ warfare on then the already oppressed fleeing/deserting afghan refugees. also in american some bloke has contracted anthrax, i can see the ordinary public either afghan or western will be getting wiped out in their unwashed masses, first aids, bse, cjd and now anthrax and ebola, to the leaders of this world the world's poor/peasants, be they in the usa / afghanistan/ r all targets to be ethnically cleansed by some form of biological germ warfare bug.
