Today I would like to recommend to you an American drama "Blood Plague", which tells the story of human beings fighting the Ebola virus, and what is more terrifying is that its plot is not a fabrication but a real human tragedy.
Ebola virus is a level IV biosafety virus, the highest known biosafety level virus, with a fatality rate of up to 90%, and the SARS virus and HIV we are familiar with are only three levels. In 1976, the Ebola virus first appeared in the Congo, and then it frantically killed the people of 55 villages along the "Ebola" River, causing the lives of several people to be destroyed, and for a time the corpses were scattered in the wilderness, and none of them were spared. Since humans had never seen a virus that was so harmful at that time, in order to prevent the spread of the virus, the only option in the face of an oncoming Ebola patient was to kill on the spot and then immediately cremate.
Today, there is no vaccine against this virus, no antibodies, and no cure or prevention. Three years after 1976, Ebola ravaged Sudan again, followed by another 15 years of disappearance, most recently in April 2019. There have been 28 outbreaks of Ebola worldwide, and no one can predict when it will break out again, maybe not, maybe today.
I did not tell the plot of "Blood Plague" in detail, but wanted to tell everyone through this American drama about the danger and severity of the virus, and the disaster caused by the plague is no less than the atomic bomb. As of 15:00 on January 23, 2020, 616 cases of novel coronavirus have been confirmed in China, 395 cases are suspected, and 17 cases have died. From January 21 to January 23, the virus grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Now Wuhan has been locked down, but this is not the struggle of the people of Wuhan, but the battle of all of us.
We ordinary people cannot fight in the front line like medical staff, and supporting epidemic prevention work is not as simple as shouting a slogan of "Wuhan refueling". What we can do is to do a good job in epidemic prevention and stop the further spread of the virus. Most of the young people have a strong sense of prevention, but the older generation who experienced the SARS period is not impressed, I want to make people aware of the harm of the virus and the seriousness of the situation through this article, even if only one person is seen, if the real plague outbreak will not be spared. Just when the people of the whole country are fighting the virus, there are also unscrupulous merchants who take the opportunity to raise prices, is such a person's blood steamed bun really fragrant?
There is no shortage of diseases in human history, and the times have never lacked heroes. What they do may not be known to you, but it is they who exchange their lives for the tranquility of our past lives, paying tribute to the unsung heroes who are fighting in front-line positions.
