I cannot for the life of me imagine the fear and heartbreak of watching your child die in such a horrific way. What a nightmare.

These hemorrhagic-fever like outbreaks (like Ebola and Marburg) usually don't spread too far because of how dramatic the symptoms are and of how quickly they usually kill patients: here "death occurs within just 48 hours of the onset of symptoms".

"However, here, it is concerning that we have hundreds of cases and over 50 deaths, with hemorrhagic-fever like symptoms widely reported among those cases." - Michael Head. Current estimate of a "fatality rate of 12.3 percent" is of course a major problem locally, tho that % could be completely wrong.

If there are few or no asymptomatic carriers, and the incubation is period is short, then it's unlikely to be like COVID-19.

Bird flu is still big concern - and potentially the solution to omnicidal anthropogenic climate change.
