This morning we were talking about Ebola and here are some of the random thoughts we cobbled together:
a. Among those Africans who grow up exposed to Malaria there seems to be some attenuating response. IOW, they don’t get as sick as someone from the US who gets Malaria.
b. While Ebola does kill the majority of patients, I can’t help but wonder if there is some sort of immunity among folks from Africa, something like Malaria, that has not yet been identified.
Not yet but after this outbreak there will be a certain percentage of survivors that are genetically superior and thus survived. Their genes will propagate into the gene pool.
Mother Nature is a vicious ruthless bitch.
