Ebola virus has crossed into Nigeria, in fact Lagos.

Borders of Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea are already at risk of closing down.

Bit hard to say without being alarmist if infected persons would try to make it out by plane. They'd get sick quick at the airport most likely > organ failure.

The infected person would already be dead after such a long trip to Oz without treatment, but can you imagine a quarantined plane at a far corner of an airport?

Some passengers will probably disobey orders and set off exit chutes after seeing blood coming out of an Ebola infected person's ears/nose/bowels/mouth!!!

Seen this terry, also thought that Ebola has an incubation period of three or so days before the symptoms occur?

Thanks Grimesy.

Looks like this is one disaster area that Presidents and PMs don't visit.

I wonder how many plagues or serious diseases have emanated from rodents (albeit that bats are flying rodents) > black plague, hendra, ebola....???

I hope the irony in my post was better received than Ebola itself...

Ebola is habitually and demographically selective...there's no way the wealthy and white will catch it...

Maybe some fake westerner cases tipped off to the western media would light a fire under the bums of our healthcare watchdogs...

But I digress; prevention doesn't pay the pharmacists :P

The common denominator is that Ebola can't become a pandemic unless it mutates into an airborne strain.

It does need to be contained though lest it merges with say a H1N1 flu virus.

I personally don't want to contemplate that one ay?

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
