What is interesting is the comparison to Ebola.

Research show:

  • Lassa is named after the area in Afica where first identified in 1969
  • It causes no symptoms in many victims
  • 1% of people infected die
  • About 25% suffer hearing loss, that partially returns
  • It is spread due to infected rat urine & feceas
  • It presents in a similar way to Ebola
  • No vaccines are available

Ebola on the other hand

  • Has a high risk of death 25-90%
  • it is spread from human to human
  • Fruit bats are the main carriers
  • Containment is critical to stop spread.

So what we have are 2 diseases, that initially present the same way, but with massive differences in outcomes.

So why is msm spreading FUD ?
What is the purpose?
