Ebola outbreak: Virus could reach UK and France by the end of the month, scientists claim -- my God what a news so bad to hear this making me all afraid. ebola is such a dangerous virus.



Experts say a vaccine to prevent the deadly Ebola virus is between two to six years away from being available to use


Scientists have claimed the Ebola virus could reach the UK and France by the end of the month.

Following an analysis of disease spread patterns and airline traffic data, experts have predicted there is a 75 per cent chance the virus could be imported to France by October 24, while there is a 50 per cent chance it could have also hit Britain.
The deadly epidemic has killed more than 3,400 people since it began in West Africa in March and has now started to spread faster, infecting almost 7,200 people so far.
The estimates have been based on air traffic remaining at full capacity. An 80 per cent reduction in travel however would see France's risk remain at 25 per cent, while Britain's risk would still be at 15 per cent.
