"It's not something we've seen over the last few years," said Sylvie Briand, director of the WHO's epidemic and pandemic preparedness and prevention department on Tuesday. She said it is still containable and that countries can cut the chain of transmission by raising awareness and getting people to recognise the symptoms early. The illness itself begins like many acute viral diseases — with high fever, muscle pain, and swollen lymph nodes. Those symptoms can be followed by a skin rash often starting in the face before spreading elsewhere and sometimes growing into fluid-containing pustules that form a scab.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Close to 1,000 Americans from across the spectrum of politics, business, journalism, entertainment, faith and advocacy have been permanently banned from entering Russia , a largely symbolic move that has generated a lot of buzz about those included, and excluded.
