Revelation 6:7,8 NCV When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse. Its rider was named death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill people by war, by starvation, by disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.
Italy has confirmed their first case of Ebola.
Italian health officials say that a doctor who had been treating patients in Sierra Leone became contracted with the virus.
“The procedures for transfer of the Italian doctor who is positive for Ebola do not present any risk to the community,” Gianni Rezza, director of the Department of Infectious Disease at the Spallanzini clinic told the Corriere della Sera.
“We have been ready for this possibility and are already equipped to manage the situation. It is our moral duty to provide therapy and support to co nationals struck by Ebola: better here than in Sierra Leone. We can resolve this safely.”
The doctor, whose name has been withheld, was flown to Rome for treatment at the Lazzaro Spallanzani infectious diseases institute.
There are 26 Italian doctors with with the charity group Emergency in Sierra Leone.
