Professor Tamfum said that we are now living in a world where new viruses will come and due to this there will also be a threat to humanity. He told humans about the spread of disease in animals, that it could be more dangerous for humanity and it is expected to start from the rain forests of Africa.

Recently, a patient in Congo, Africa showed signs of Hemorrhagic Fever. After this, the patient was isolated and his samples were sent for an Ebola test. During this time, many medical experts were struggling with the question that what if the woman does not have Ebola? What if a woman is a patient of ‘Disease X’ born of a new virus? However, the report of the woman came negative. But his illness remains a mystery even today.

According to the WHO, X in Disease X is unknown. That is, an unknown disease that can spread in the world in the coming times. Well-known medical scientists of the world say that the fear of ‘Disease X’ is justified.

Let me tell you that the new virus can spread like corona rapidly, but the number of people who die from it can also be 50 to 90 percent more than Ebola. Significantly, the sample that Professor Jean had taken to detect the virus was sent to Belgium and the United States, where scientists found that this worm-shaped virus is present in the blood. Let me that there was bleeding on Ebola and the patient dies.

At the Yambuku Mission Hospital in Congo, the mysterious illness was first confirmed as Ebola and then 88% of the hospital’s patients and 80% of the staff were killed by Ebola.
