Ebola expert provides education on deadly disease during Homecoming 2014
 | | Fort Valley State University president Dr. Ivelaw Lloyd Griffith and Dr. Earl Long at a recent Presidential Excellence Lecture on Ebola. |
|
An infectious disease expert recently told an audience during Fort Valley State University's Presidential Excellence Lecture that Ebola had little chance of spreading to Middle Georgia.
Dr. Earl Long, a former health scientist for the Centers for Disease Control, spoke about his personal experience working in an Ebola endemic area on Oct. 22 in the Pettigrew Center.
"It is really difficult for me to understand why people don't want to vaccinate their kids, yet they are afraid of Ebola," Long said.
Long spoke about his personal experience working in an Ebola endemic area in Western Africa. The Ebola expert described the virus as a filovirus, whose structure was a coil of DNA. According to Long, the virus was first discovered in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in a village called Yambuku near the Ebola River. There have been 40 outbreaks of the virus in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Sudan, Gabon, Uganda and Guinea.
The parasitologist reviewed the symptoms of the disease which include fever, joint and muscle pain, weakness, sore throat, chills, abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, rash, difficulty in breathing, and liver and kidney failure. The disease is transmitted through bodily secretions (urine, sweat, vomit, breast milk, semen) and in syringes and infected animals. It is not spread through the air, water or food.

He said he wants to see the whole agriculture industry do well in Georgia and education is a big part of that. After the tour, the Congressmen mentioned that FVSU is doing great things.
