pandemic flu GET pilots

1)The group of people are the GET pilots,the victims,the researchers at the World Health Organisation(WHO),and the people who have gotten into contact with dead animals.

2)The roles of the GET is that they were suffering from an unidentified ribonucleic acid virus dubbed the Blue Nile.There are patients who had flu-like symptoms.Within two weeks,they will have respiratory distress sypdrome.The researchers at WHO are trying to find vaccines for the virus.They are also trying to find a medication that will slow the virus down.

3)Some key problems are they will suffer from a variety of flu-like smyptoms and within two weeks,they will have difficulty breathing and can result in organ failure.This virus spread around the body very fast as in less than a month,the victim may die.The virus spread through the air and via contact with fecal matter.This is a key problem as there is poor sanitation,crowded shelters and minimal health care after athe flood.This can result in the virus spreading to many people at a faster rate due to the poor living conditions.The other problem is that there is no vaccines for the virus currently.The researchers at the WHO are still finding a way to make the vaccines.Until then,more peo[ple will die as there is no cure.

4)I think we can donate money in funding the people so that they can improve their living conditions which will minimise the number of people catching the virus.We can also donate money to the researchers so that they will be able to make sufficient vaccines to cater to the people.
