Is ebola a man's or god's creation.

When i heard about the ebola outburst,  more than being worried the first thing that came in to my mind was how it came into existence.
Is it human’s or god’s creation?
Since the Ebola came into existence, there has been a contradiction about its original. Everyone has a question in their mind that whether God has created it or human themselves. As the origin of the virus is still a mystery people doubt in the creation of GOD. If God has created all the goodness why have he gave such a disease pain and death that can’t be healed or treated? But when we are searching for the answer we need to find out the goodness of God. Viruses are the living parasites that live in the world. Like the other living creations Human animals’ birds, virus is also a part of such amazing creation of God. Not all infectious viruses are spreading harm to the world. There are many which have been used for the good. Life and death is a part of living cycle.

Diagnosis of Ebola

It is very difficult to diagnose Ebola in a person who has been infected by the virus for only a few days. The reason is that the early symptoms like fever are non-specific and are often observed in patients with more common diseases like malaria and typhoid fever. However, once a person has been diagnosed with early symptoms of Ebola, the person should be isolated and it is very important to notify the public health authorities about the case. If a person has come in direct contact with: Bodily fluids or blood of an Ebola infected person who has died Items that were handled by an Ebola infected person and are contaminated with the blood or body fluids of the sick person Semen from a man who has just recovered from Ebola To confirm infection, samples from the patient can be taken and tested. For the symptoms to reach detectable levels, it may take up to three days after the onset of symptoms. Only after the onset of symptoms, most prominent being fever, is the Ebola virus detec...

Severity of Ebola

The first outbreak of the deadly Ebola disease took place in 1976 first in Sudan, then in Zaire. The disease can be fatal in majority of the cases. It is a viral fever which can get extremely severe in humans and primates. The virus affected around 284 people when it took place for the first time and it took toll over the lives of 53% of its victims. The second time it affected around 318 people and had the highest mortality rate among the viral diseases. The mortality rate was 88% in Zaire. The cause of such deadly disease could not be found as researchers kept trying to find the origin of the virus. In 1989, the third strain of disease, the Ebola Reston (EBOR) was identified for the first time. Monkeys that were imported from Reston were found to be infected with Ebola virus. Till now, Ebola has caused about 4493 deaths and the count of its victims is as high as 8998, according to World Health Organization (WHO). WHO still believes that the numbers can be 2.5 times the numbers that...

These areas have faced recurrent Ebola flare-ups, often linked to the Zaire ebolavirus species, known for its high fatality rate. The outbreaks typically start in remote areas but can spread to urban centers, complicating containment efforts. Response Efforts: Rapid and Coordinated Action The response to these outbreaks involves a multi-faceted approach: Rapid Diagnosis and Isolation : Quick identification of cases is crucial.
