well Ebola is spreading faster and stronger than ever.

However, i am a person who considers conspiracies alot, and i would just like to ask a few questions here

from the above chart, look at the timeline of Ebola itself, the disease has occurred before, and the deaths have not been numerous, now all of a sudden 2014 reach, virus stronger than ever, spreading faster than ever.

it is alleged that an african tribe contracted the disease after eating some bats from their local cave,

but how is only now the bats have it? after all these years gone by , they eating the animal normal, but now the bats just happened to have the strongest strain of ebola to hit the history of human kind?

look at the timing as well, ISIS is about , World War 3 is on the brink of forming, Over Population is occurring at a rapid rate , and Ebola just happens to spread like wildfire?

AND THERES NO CURE? Im sure if someone important were to contract it( god forbid) im sure they would make a 'miraculous' recovery. Their immune system was strong enough to fight off the disease ent?

let me cut to the point.

I think someone purposely biologically engineered the virus for weaponization of the virus, the outbreaks are the tests to see whether the strains of the virus could stand up. Maybe off of profit ? maybe off of hatred for people? who knows why someone would do this, if they did.

just me and my paranoia speaking

Now i am hearing that Ebola is spreading in TEXAS and one town had to be shut down...WTF!
 
I really think we need to place a ban to the countries majorly affected by Ebola, we just dont have the resources and the know how to contain it also i think that persons should go thru a blood screening from infected continues before entering.
 
NO SHIP HAS COMING IN TRINIDAD & TOBAGO WATERS FROM WEST AFRICA WITH EBOLA IT WAS A RUMOUR CNC3 & OTHER MEDIA HOUSES SPREAD.....anything to make news now.....as dey say stay tuned....more to come
 
The lab technician who handled samples of the man wit hthe first case of Ebola in the US is now under quarantined in a CARIBBEAN CRUISE SHIP! The boat which is a carnival cruise headed to Mexico had to be quarantined off and is now being sent back as the lady is showing signs of the deadly virus. OMGG!
 
yepp i heard about that! this is getting out of hand , i say shut everything down yess!

i go make my little garden farm , go underground and live the rest of my days, i dow wanna die from this virus, this thing brutal!
 
The Caribbean Cruise now is a death ship.... Belize and Mexico refuse to let the boat dock on their shores ..There is hardly time to save the lady if she does have Ebola
