This is not a virus like Ebloa. Get out and enjoy life!
86 have died in Sumter county and 80% of all people who have died from Covid-19 were over 70.

Ebola killed about fifty percent of all infected but they developed a vaccine. Ebola was not as easily contagious, but far more deadly.
We had no good plan against Ebola in the U.S. Doctors were allowed to return to the U.S. from Africa and did not have to quarantine.
