Talk of the Town: Mark Zuckerberg Donated MILLIONS to the CDC to HELP Fight Ebola Crisis!; Magic Mike XXXXXXXXXL!


The creator of Facebook is willing to do whatever it takes to help STOP the Ebola epidemic.

Mark Zuckerberg, along with his wife Priscilla, gave the Center for Disease Control Foundation 25 MILLION DOLLARS! He says he wants to stop the epidemic from becoming a long-term crisis like HIV or polio have been. Zuckerberg claims that money is the fastest way to get help to front line responders. He states,"These people are on the ground setting up care centers, training local staff, identifying Ebola cases and much more."

Way to go Mark and Priscilla! Maybe more celebrities should get on board and donate as well!

Ebola has killed 4,000 or more and infected more than twice that number of people mainly in West Africa making it the BIGGEST health crisis in modern times according to some health care officials.

MMMMM! Yes, LADIES! These fine men have been recording Magic Mike XXL in Savannah, Georgia! If you seen the last one, the new one will be 10 times better! MORE dancing and MORE eye candy! Yesterday, Channing Tatum told Tamron Hall from Today's Show, "This is the Super Bowl version of what the first one was," the Book of Life star, 34, said of Magic Mike XXL. "I'm dancing probably five times as much in this one."(US Magazine) We all know that Channing Tatum is probably the BEST dancer out of the whole cast so I am excited to see what he has in store! The MAIN characters I am interested in seeing are, Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer, Alex Petyfer, Joe Manganiello, and Donald Glover(Childish Gambino). I DON'T care about the female cast mates so, I didn't even bother looking them up. This movie is set for a 2015 release! Who is excited??!

Talk of the Town: TEXAS NURSE TESTS POSITIVE FOR EBOLA!!!!!


                                                                     (www.thedenverchannel.com)

According to the Washington Post, a nurse that was helping treat the 1st US Ebola patient(Thomas Duncan who died earlier this week)has also tested positive. The diagnosis was confirmed by the CDC today. Thomas Frieden, director of the CDC, said that an unknown breach in protocol led to the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital worker being infected and that federal officials are investigating. He said additional CDC staff are heading to Texas. He also said that more cases are likely.

Frieden also stated that the CDC is considering the treatment of Ebola patients to be conducted at one of the 4 facilities in US. 3 of the 4 have successfully treated confirmed or suspected Ebola cases.
The infected worker, is the first person to contract the disease in the United States.Hospital officials said the worker had been wearing CDC-recommended protective gear during treatment, including gowns, gloves, masks and shields.

The current Ebola outbreak which is said to be the worst outbreak on record of the disease, has already killed more than 4,000 people in West Africa.  



If you don't think this Ebola outbreak is serious, you need to rethink that!

Talk of the Town: Dallas, Texas Ebola Patient Dies!

Thomas Duncan, a Liberian man who was diagnosed with Ebola in Dallas, Texas died today at 7:51 am at the age of 42. He had been critically ill and was the very first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in the US.
                                                  (New York Times)

Since the diagnosis, Duncan had been receiving the experimental drug Brincidofovir and was being treated at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital. According the hospital, Duncan was on a ventilator, had been receiving dialysis, and his symptoms appeared to be improving. This resulted in the downgrade of his condition from serious to critical this past Saturday.  Of course, the hospital where Duncan had been treated has received a great deal of criticism for failing to recognize his symptoms. He first arrived to the hospital on Sept. 25, received an antibiotic, and was sent home. I am sure he also let the hospital know that he had come in contact with someone who died of Ebola prior to his checkout.

Apparently, Duncan had been visiting family in Texas when his symptoms appeared in September. Earlier in the month, it is said that he assisted a woman in Liberia who later died of the virus as well. This is probably how he came in contact with it. I send my condolences to his family.

Our government needs to take this Ebola virus more seriously. There needs to be some kind of border control or screenings done at the airports. This can get out of control if nothing is done to stop it!


What are your thoughts?
