OH, GOODY: New Ebola-Like Disease Is Emerging: WHO Tracks South Sudan Fever. “The World Health Organization says it is closely tracking an outbreak of a mysterious hemorrhagic fever that has killed at least 10 people in the country this year and sickened dozens of others. The disease causes Ebola-like symptoms, including bleeding, fever, and fatigue, NPR reports, but the WHO says that, unlike with Ebola, the symptoms quickly disappear when patients receive effective treatment—which can be hard to find in a country shattered by years of brutal civil war. The disease doesn’t seem to spread from person to person, though investigators aren’t sure exactly how it is transmitted.”
