  • Ebola: Basics About the Disease
    Ebola: Basics About the Disease Sarah A. Lister Specialist in Public Health and Epidemiology October 3, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R43750 Ebola: Basics About the Disease n March 2014, global health officials recognized an outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in Guinea, West Africa. In retrospect, officials determined that the outbreak began in December I2013, and spread to the adjacent countries of Liberia and Sierra Leone. In September 2014, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed the first EVD case diagnosed in the United States,1 heightening concerns among some who fear the disease could spread in American communities.2 This report discusses EVD in general, including symptoms, modes of transmission, incubation period, and treatments; presents projections of the future course of the outbreak; and lists additional CRS products, including products focused on the situation in West Africa. Unless otherwise cited, information in this report is drawn from Ebola information pages of CDC3 and the World Health Organization (WHO).4 Figure 1. Ebola Virus Particle The Ebola Virus and EVD The Ebola virus is named after the Ebola River, near where the virus was discovered in 1976 in Zaire, now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). It is in the filovirus family, so called because of its filamentous shape. EVD is also known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever. The disease sometimes causes hemorrhage (i.e., bleeding) from body openings, but this symptom is not consistent. Five strains of Ebola virus have been identified. The Zaire strain is responsible for the current outbreak in West Source: Colorized transmission electron micrograph Africa.

The Long Road Leave behind one burning ember The 2014 Ebola epidemic in West Africa is the first in history. The first case was reported in Guinea and the epidemic could re-ignite. in March 2014, and the disease spread in the neighboring countries of Liberia and Sierra Leone.

  • Smoking, Vaping & Covid-19: What Are Health Experts Saying?
    SMOKING, VAPING & COVID-19: WHAT ARE HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS AND EXPERTS SAYING? U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention “Being a current or former cigarette smoker can make you more likely to get severely ill from COVID-19. If you currently smoke, quit. If you used to smoke, don’t start again. If you’ve never smoked, don’t start.” (“Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) – People with Certain Medical Conditions,” CDC, Apr. 29, 2021) "We also know that tobacco smoking can increase the risk for developing lung disease, making it harder to recover from lung diseases or infections such as COVID-19. And so we do encourage you to have your patients quit smoking or think about that, and they can call 1-800-QUIT-NOW or visit the CDC website at http://www.cdc.gov/quit for help or more information about that." (Dr. Georgina Peacock, "COVID-19 Response At Risk Task Force Lead, CDC, Underlying Medical Conditions and People at Higher Risk for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)," CDC Clinician Outreach and Communication Activity (COCA) Call, Mar. 27, 2020) Dr. Nora Volkow, Director of the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse “Because it attacks the lungs, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 could be an especially serious threat to those who smoke tobacco or marijuana or who vape. … Thus far, deaths and serious illness from COVID-19 seem concentrated to those who are older and who have underlying health issues, such as diabetes, cancer, and respiratory conditions. It is therefore reasonable to be concerned that compromised lung function or lung disease related to smoking history, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), could put people at risk for serious complications of COVID-19.

  • Most Countries Aren't Prepared for the Next Epidemic
    Most Countries Aren’t Prepared for the Next Epidemic PreventEpidemics.org Highlights Gaps in Preparedness and Encourages Action to Save Lives June 21, 2018, Aspen, CO, USA – The world will face another unpredictable epidemic, but most countries are not ready to find, stop, and prevent its spread. A new website, PreventEpidemics.org, spotlights gaps in preparedness and highlights actions countries, donors, activists, and organizations can take to fill them. An infectious disease can spread from one community to any country in the world in just 36 hours, but as PreventEpidemics.org shows, most countries have not yet taken the steps needed to prepare for this risk. The website is being presented tomorrow at the annual Aspen Ideas Spotlight Health Festival by Dr. Tom Frieden, former US CDC Director and now President and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, an initiative of the global health organization Vital Strategies, and Amanda McClelland, RN, MPH, its Senior Vice President, who coordinated frontline Ebola response during the 2014 Ebola epidemic. The website is the first to provide a single ReadyScore for every country based on their ability to find, stop and prevent epidemics; it also provides advocacy tools to help make health protection a priority. “By the end of this year, nearly 100 countries will have completed a rigorous, transparent assessment of how prepared they are for an epidemic – but there has been too little support from the global community and countries to close life-threatening gaps,” says Dr. Tom Frieden. “It’s not a matter of if there will be another global epidemic, but when.
