There have been
numerous reports of people rising from the dead in Africa. Fear and
panic is spreading in Nimba County, an African community where dead
Ebola patients have reportedly “resurrected” and roams around among the
living. The victims were allegedly women in their 40s and 60s who was
thought to have died from the virus in Liberia’s Nimba County.
According to the
local paper The New Dawn, the pair of “walking dead” is believed to be
amongst the living. The report said Dorris Quote, and Ma Kabeh
who are in their 60s, both from Hope Village Community and the
Catholic Community in Ganta, were about to be buried when they “rose
from the dead.” Witnesses claimed Ma Kabeh had stayed indoors for about two nights without receiving medication or taking any food before her reported death.
When residents
gathered to prepare the burial of the dead women, they were shocked to
see the dead rise. Aside from the mass panic, many have wondered whether
Kebeh had survived the virus after all, if the presumption of her death
turned out to be false. Since the Ebola outbreak in Nimba County, this
was the first time that dead patients had allegedly come back from the
dead.
The town has
previously reported strange incidents relating to Ebola. One report
claimed a native doctor could cure Ebola, but died from the virus last
week. According to reports, the virus has killed about 2,800 people in
West Africa with 5,800 cases. The Ebola virus has no known cure,
although efforts are under way to develop an effective vaccine to it
from spreading.
The World Health
Organization has predicted that more people could die from the virus as
it currently has a 70 percent mortality rate. The total number of
infected people would reach hundreds of thousands in the next four
months if the virus cannot be controlled.
Previous reports
have said the Centres for Disease Control projected that there could be
1.4 million people infected with Ebola in Sierra Leone and Liberia by
the end of January. In some parts of Africa they don’t go to medical
professionals to check to make sure people are dead. On occasion they
bury people who are in deep sleeps or comas which sometimes results in
people waking up just before they are buried alive. That’s the only
explanation that makes any sense.
