Ebola: 50 Critical Facts about Ebola That You Need to Know

Ebola: 50 Critical Facts about Ebola That You Need to Know was a free kindle book. I know I that I wrote yesterday that I was taking a break from this blog, but when I seen this free Kindle book, I had to share it. Especially with what all is going on in the news.

 “Ebola: 50 Critical Facts about Ebola that you Need to Know”
The 2014 Ebola virus outbreak has been the largest in history. Formerly, the virus was known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever; although these days, it is more frequently called as Ebola Virus Disease or EVD. The Ebola Virus disease is caused by any of the five strains of the genus Ebola virus. Each of these can affect humans, although only three strains can lead to disease or death. The present outbreak is brought about by the Zaire Ebola virus strain, which is considered as the most harmful due to its 90 percent mortality rate.
News about the Ebola Virus Disease spread very rapidly and was accompanied by rumors and disinformation. All of these have stuck fear and caused panic among many people. Currently, there is no vaccine for Ebola virus. The most competent physicians can only do as much as providing intensive patient care such as administration of intravenous fluids and keeping optimal oxygen levels, blood pressure and temperature. Scientific and medical experts are still attempting to discover and invent a vaccine against the deadly virus.
There are some scientists who have developed vaccines that are promising, although these are not yet tested and can provide no guaranties. Furthermore, a lot of questions about the deadly disease still remain unanswered. However, there are some crucial facts about the deadly virus that all the people must be aware of including the disease’s history, symptoms, treatment as well as ways to safeguard oneself.
This book entitled: “Ebola: 50 Critical Facts about Ebola that you Need to Know” provides 50 of the most crucial facts about the deadly virus that every person must know. In times like this, staying informed is only the most effective means of defense to safeguard ourselves and our family from such a dreaded disease. This book provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date information on the Ebola virus and Ebola Virus disease.

Taking A Break From Blog...

It has been a busy time. I hate to say it, but I am needing to take a break from this blog for just a couple of weeks. I need to focus on some prepping and am having trouble with my computers. Our desktop finally gave up, it was 5 years old. And now this laptop that I bought used is starting to act up and freeze etc. We are also needing to get some preps ready and done for winter.

I have a ton of information in the Archives:

2008 ARCHIVES

2009 ARCHIVES

2010 ARCHIVES

2011 ARCHIVES

2012 ARCHIVES

2013 ARCHIVES

2014 ARCHIVES

WOW I have had this blog for a long time. That is another reason I am wanting to take a break, my hubby made a comment to my older son and me on Saturday. "If the SHTF you guys would be screwed and wouldn't know what to do with yourselves without the internet!" He might be right. I do get online a lot. Mostly doing research and every single bit of my family  lives out of state so I use Facebook to talk to them. I don't have a cell phone or anything like that so I am on the computer  a lot. Taking a break and focusing on homeschooling and winter preps will help.

Hope that you all will be ok and focus on your preps. Whatever type of preps you are prepping for get them done. Focus on your family and your preps. Get you heads out of the TV and computer.

Love to all of you!

    "I would highly recommend this book to get started on your overall survival plan." - 5* review.

    The only thing you can be certain about in life is the fact that life is uncertain – you never know when a disaster might strike. To make matters worse, disasters and emergencies may take a variety of forms. Your city might be struck by a hurricane, or the breadwinner in your family could lose his job.

    No matter the circumstance, in times like this you will be glad that you have an emergency pantry stocked with survival foods. There may come a time when you no longer have access to a grocery store – you may even be without power and unable to use the foods in your refrigerator or freezer.

    You care about your family more than anything. While it is not certain that you will ever need an emergency pantry, it is better to have one and not need it than to not have one when you do need it.

    Stocking a survival pantry is easy to do, but could be one of the most important decisions you ever make.
