For decades nothing has been done in order to look for a cure. In name of no-business
Opinion
Let put lies aside. Europe is not ready to deal with Ebola, and the reason is very simple: pharmaceutical industry didn't want to invest in research because virus has always been something related only to Africa, a part of the globe where make business is impossible. This is the reality. There was no interest in searching a cure for this virus, which is a new disease at all since it was identified in 1976. In nearly forty years no one knows anything about Ebola virus, and it is not a case. If the virus a was a Western society problem, now probably we would have more results and more information at our disposal, perhaps we would have a treatment ore a therapy too. But since only African people have been affected by this sanitary emergency, pharmaceutical industry saw no opportunities for profit in a poor continent where people have no money to pay for a medicine. So nothing has been made. Unfortunately, new capitalist globalization produced connections among all the countries of the world, and now Europeans come back home with virus. The Ebola virus, until today considered as an African business, is travelling and finally reached the rich world. Finally Western societies become aware of the situation, just because these great countries are worried and have fear. High level meeting have been organized by governments in order to address the situation. It has to be clear the main purpose of these high level committees is to have protection from Ebola rather than find a medical solution. That lies in pharmaceutical industry will. Until European and Western populations will not start die no real answers will be found.
