    Ebola now broke containment (which is tricky in the area where the outbreak is anyway) and there's a case in one of the main cities of the Congo. This batch appears to have ~70% mortality rate.

    OH BOY! This could get bad fast.

    Deadly Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo reaches city of 1.4 million | Fox News

    "Health officials have started a vaccination campaign but they have been hindered by sporadic attacks by rebel militias operating in the eastern Congo region."

    "The World Health Organization said "substantial risks" remain in the ongoing outbreak, noting that while control measures appear to be working, health officials are still unable to track exactly where the deadly virus is spreading."

    This article is from NPR, posted yesterday 10/12/18. (Making sure my tin hat is perfectly situated in place) - The Level 1 Trauma hospitals in Indianapolis have dedicated areas of their hospitals that are ready to accommodate patients, either from an outbreak here or brought here from an outbreak anywhere across the globe. Just food for thought.
