Ebola in DRC: Is there something in this place?

[Old_Observer]

This place is also known where AIDS was traced to whether through New York lab or some forest. Ebola is showing up second time now.

There is constant wars in that country, but is that the reason?

Probably from eating Monkeys. 

Fruit bats; at least some species, are hosts to Ebola, and through their droppings or fruit they have come in contact with, can infect other non-human primates such as gorillas and chimpanzees; a delicacy in that area of Africa.

Then these peole better change their life style before they get us all killed.

Well, it is a large, beautiful country blessed with immense natural resources with neighbouring countries (small and big) repeatedly interfering its affairs. This country needs another strong man, a nationalist version of Lumumba and ruthlessness of Mobutu Sese Seko (not the CIA-installed version).

DRC is richer than Canada and Australia combined in natural resources. What a waste!

When the owners cannot match the risk its a curse. A lot of wars done just for Lica for cell phones, some of the groups that were fighting did not even know.

Some times its better not to allow survey companies, even for oil unless you know how you are going to handle it if the find is positive. The Belgian king accumulated all that wealth he knew was there, and now he does not want to risk against other wealthy men of europe.

It is a curse in this or similar cases. You can see Swiss have no port and sea related problem but the Somali, Yemeni, Egyptians..have been paying a high price for centuries.

Its very interesting in deed. Even the Eritreans once sent a team (Battalion) I guess they had relationship with some Amercan/european company. Ruanda, Uganda are always finding some new name organizations to control piece of that country.
