The killer is equally dangerous as Ebola virus

Being stung by bees, food poisoning, accidents . are potential dangers that make people die more often than Ebola.

Surely everyone of us is worried about the Ebola epidemic. According to statistics on August 10, at least 1,779 people were infected and nearly 1,000 died.

Many countries have also issued prohibitions, along with preventive measures to prevent widespread epidemics. Mortality rate of people infected with Ebola virus is up to 90%.

Ebola virus is not transmitted through the respiratory system but spread quickly through the way of contact with blood or any secretions on infected people. The patient will feel extremely painful, uncomfortable due to many open wounds on the skin and some other diseases such as kidney failure, excessive blood loss .

However, besides Ebola prevention, every day, you also face many other potential dangers around. And importantly, these dangers can kill us at any time.

1. Died by accident

Ebola virus will kill people slowly. But an accident can cause you to die instantly. Traffic accidents are one of the leading causes of death in developing countries. If careless, you may have an accident at any time.

According to the World Health Organization statistics, about 1.2 million people die from traffic accidents each year and about 2 million people die from accidents in general.

2. Malaria outbreak

If you think of a really worrying disease, don't think about Ebola hemorrhagic fever. Did you know, malaria kills up to 3 million people in the world each year, of which more than 600,000 are from Africa.

The cause of this disease is mainly Anophen mosquito. Symptoms may include headache, fever, tremor, joint pain, vomiting, hemolytic anemia, jaundice, blood in the urine, retinal damage and seizures.

Malaria has two types: normal malaria and severe malaria. When properly treated, people with malaria can usually recover completely. While severe malaria can progress extremely quickly and cause death within hours or days.

3. Too much partying

Alcohol or alcoholic drinks not only make you "drunk off the road" but also endangered. According to CDC data, about 88,000 Americans die each year from drinking alcohol overdose, this number is even nearly 100 times the number of people killed by Ebola by the present time.

Alcohol or alcoholic drinks inhibit nerves, making the person's brain inadequate to consider things, easily leading to wrong action.

'Say' is a mild manifestation of overdose of alcohol. In severe cases, it can cause difficulty breathing, stop the heart or suffocate you when vomiting.

4. Food poisoning

Few people know that, in developing countries, the number of deaths due to food poisoning by food safety is not really guaranteed.

The most common poisoning symptoms are poisoning of fungi, bacteria (due to food stagnation, fermentation, fermentation .) and natural toxins (due to poisonous foods such as seafood, frogs, toads .).

Poisoning people have signs of dizziness, abdominal pain, diarrhea . if not timely detoxification can die from heart failure, respiratory failure. Although food poisoning can be cured if detected in time, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 3,000 people worldwide die every year from food poisoning.

5. Being stung by a bee

Many people believe that the small bee is unlikely to endanger us. But the truth is that bee stings can lead to death.

The problem sometimes does not lie in the bee venom but depends on the locality, the response of the body to each person. That means, people not only die because of a swarm of bees but can be 'defeated' in front of a small bee.

If the patient is sensitive, after a bee sting, the skin may have hives, itching. Then there is anaphylaxis, dyspnea, laryngeal edema, hard tongue. More dangerous, the victim may have respiratory failure, edema of the alveoli, vomiting, hypotension leading to death.

Japanese wasps are one of the bees with the highest risk of death. With a body length of up to 75mm, the 6.25mm long stinger section, containing 8 types of chemicals - this wasp's sting caused the sick to suffer, attack the nervous system and hurt the victim's tissue.

Moreover, the bee's toxin secretes also has a characteristic smell, attracting, calling for many other wasps. A statistic shows that only Japan, the number of people dying from wasps burned up to 70 people every year.

6. Being kicked by horses, falling horses

It sounds funny, but about 100 people die every year because they want to be 'knights'. The horse's hind legs are an extremely powerful weapon.

Legs with incredible power can cause injury to things they consider enemies. Moreover, being kicked by horses can lead to serious internal injuries and death.

Another danger is that horse falls are often heavier than normal falls because horseback is usually quite high and you always tend to wish your head to fall when you fall. This can lead to death due to a broken neck.
