THERE IS A WAY TO HALT THE PRESENT EBOLA EPIDEMIC !!
RATIONALE:
EBOLA is highly susceptible to UV-C RADIATION; therefore,at the VERY EARLIEST inception of infection and ,hopefully prior to initiation the destructive effects of the EBOLA VP35 on the human immune targets (monocytes,macrophages,interferon,etc.), the virus is vulnerable to sequential destruction by using DIALYSIS MACHINERY and UV-C PULSE RADIATING TUBING!
METHODOLOGY:
Since dialysis tubing is extra corporal it can be surrounded by
UV-C pulse radiating tubes.Virus blood count is obtained prior to exposure; then, following each blood cycle another count is made. IF evidence ANY DECREASE in count then cycling should persist until viral count is ZERO.
NB:
Hypothetically this method should so quickly destroy the EBOLA that it should not have an opportunity to form resistant strains; howener, if this proves successful and, hopefully, there are survivors they must be kept in isolation for a short period to be certain there are NO resistant strains.

We are concerned about France given the cultural and air traffic connectivity. That said, most of the European and African countries are fully aware of the threat and have taken tremendous precautions.

Just today an emergency dept in Charlotte, NC was in lockdown during an eval of a returning traveler suspected to have flown from a high risk area, however this was ruled out. This is precisely what every emergency department in the country should be doing- be vigilant, ask a travel history, and take proper precautions to protect the community. Those physicians should be commended.

There is so much false information out there. It is truly scary.

Dr. Wilson, my hat off to you for your efforts in this regards. You are a hero to go into the face of this epidemic to offer your services. I wish for your safety and a quick return.
