Did you hear about the outbreak of the new “mystery disease” in Tanzania? What about the alarming new outbreak in Congo? New developments in South Africa are making headlines all over the globe as well. Despite all of our advanced technology, humanity remains extremely vulnerable to outbreaks of disease, and many believe that the COVID pandemic is just the beginning. Fearsome new bugs are constantly being cooked up in labs all over the planet, and it is inevitable that there will be more “accidents” that result in more of these bugs getting released in the future. As we have seen, a single virus can rapidly spread throughout the entire world, and it is just a matter of time before a pandemic comes along that will wipe out tens of millions of people.
This is a hot button topic for me, and so I am constantly monitoring news sources for new pestilences that may be emerging. Needless to say, when news stories about a new “mystery illness” in Tanzania started coming out, that definitely got my attention…
A MYSTERY illness which causes patients to vomit blood has killed at least 15 in Tanzania, officials said.
More than 50 people have been hospitalised in the south of the country due to the unidentified condition which also causes nausea in sufferers.
Authorities in Tanzania do not know what is causing people to vomit blood and drop dead.
But they did suspend the doctor that first reported this outbreak for “causing panic”…
Tanzania has suspended a medical officer who reported that a mystery disease had killed 15 people in the country and caused people to throw up blood.
Felista Kisandu, the chief medical officer for the Chunya district, had described how patients ‘vomit blood and die when they get to the hospital late’ in an unexplained bout of sickness which was said to have affected more than 50 people.
At this point, officials are insisting that there will not be a wider outbreak, but of course Tanzania would also have us believe that COVID does not exist in their country when there is a tremendous amount of evidence to the contrary.
So far, this new mystery disease does not appear to match the type of killer pandemic that I described in my latest book, but we will continue to monitor the situation.
Meanwhile, a new Ebola outbreak in Congo is creating a tremendous amount of concern…
