Ebola Outbreak

In class, we had a task to find the exact same new on three different English new websites.

Here is what I found. 

What is Ebola? 

  • Disease, virus
  • Fast to catch 
  • Dangerous

Symptoms for Ebola: fever, headaches, joint, muscle

NBCNews:

Two American Ebola patients,Nancy Writebol and Dr. Kent Brantly.
 Walk out of Emory University Hospital in Atlanta infection-free.
They were the first human beings to receive an experimental drug called ZMapp. But they are not the first people to have recovered from Ebola. 1976 Ebola came to east Africa. But with good hospital care is likely more responsible for their recovery
Ebola has infected 2,500 people in West Africa and killed 1,350 of them in 

BBC:  More than 2,630 people have died of the virus in 601 Guinea, 1,459 Liberia, 562 Sierra Leone and 8 Nigeria this year. The disease infects humans through close contact with infected animals, including chimpanzees, fruit bats and forest antelope.

CNN: More than 2,600 people have died from the virus since March and the numbers continue to grow.

This is what I found from all three news websites. Every one of them had almost the same thing to say, but the numbers of people was the only different.
