World Bank President Jim Yong Kim: ''We have a responsibility to that particular region of Africa''
The World Bank has announced that it is allocating $200m (£120m) in emergency assistance for West African countries battling to contain the Ebola outbreak.
The money will be distributed to the governments of Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea as well as to the World Health Organization (WHO).
The number of people killed in the outbreak has reached 887, the WHO says.
The World Bank's announcement came as African leaders including 35 presidents discuss the crisis in Washington.
World Bank President Jim Yong Kim - an expert on infectious diseases - said that he was "deeply saddened" by the spread of the virus and how it was contributing to the breakdown of "already weak health systems in the three countries".

TIPS UNTUK DEMAM DENGGI
Ok, untuk pengetahuan semua, demam denggi ni memang tak ada ubat.. Penawarnya hanya air sahaja.. Sebab tu kalau di tahan wad pun, doktor suruh minum air banyak dan bagi mereka yang tak boleh minum kerana muntah, doktor akan masukkan air dalam badan... Memang tak ada ubat setakat ni... Tapi, masa saya nak gi hospital last week, saya ada berbual dengan pemandu teksi ni tau. Muda lagi, dalam lewat 20 an la.. Dia bawa teksi ni part time je.. Kerja hakiki dia berkenaan dengan bidang kajian ubat-ubatan.. Tapi, saya tak pasti kerja apa. tak tanya pun masa tu. Sebab lagi suka mendengar je time tu. Masa tu dok pikir macam-maca kan.. Risau kat Cik Abg kat hospital nu. Balik kejap nak ambik baju je masa tu.. Driver teksi ni kata, dah ada ubat untuk denggi. Tapi, masih dalam peringkat kajian.. Bila nak dipasarkan tu, tak tahu lagi... Ada juga driver tu bagitahu pengalaman dia kena denggi jugak...
Eh, berbalik kepada tajuk akat atas ni.. Saya nak kongsikan beberapa tips untuk pulih dari demam denggi. Kita hanya berusaha, Allah jua yang menyembuhkan segala penyakit...
1. Air mineral/air kosong/air masak.
Sama je kan?. hihi.. Sebenarnya kalau tak sakit pun, air memang penting untuk tubuh kita, kan?.. Tapi, bila kena demam denggi ni, lagilah penting.. Jangan tak minum tau. Memang kita akan rasa tak larat sangat nak minum. Tapi, cubalah gagahkan diri minum ye.. Untuk kesihatan diri sendiri juga 
2. Minuman Isotonik/ 100 Plus.
Air ni pun penting jugak.. Untuk memberi tenaga buat yang mengidap demam denggi. Masa demam tu, comfirm kita tak lalu makan kan?.. Jadi, bila kita minum air 100 plus ni, sedikit sebanyak memberi kita tenaga juga.. Ada yang kata tak elok minum banyak-banyak.. Kandungan gula yang tinggi, dan boleh memudaratkan bagi yang ada gastrik.. Tapi, saya rasa, tak salah nak minum pun. Sebab bukan kita minum hari-hari.. Kita hanya minum ketika terkena denggi ni je, banyak-banyak.. Dan dah tentu kita pun tak nak kena denggi lama-lama kan?.. Lebih baik amalkan.. Pengalaman saya duduk hospital temankan Cik Abg, Doktor sendiri yang minta pesakit minum. Doktor tak bagi minum air masak je. Doktor suruh campur-campur minum dengan minuman manis yang lain.. Contohnya susu, milo, 100 plus dan lain-lain..
3. Sup Ketam.
Ok, sup ketam ni memang ramai yang cadangkan.. saya sendiri pernah dengar dari kenalan rapat. Bila Cik Abg masuk hospital, mak ayah, mak ayah mertua, keluarga, rakan-rakan, nurse, dan pesakit denggi sendiri yang cadangkan buat sup ketam. Tak lupa juga buat teman-teman blogger yang wassap.. hihihi.. Memang saya ada buatkan. Tapi, nak habaq mai. Buat sup ketam untuk pesakit denggi bukan buat macam kita buat selalu tu.. macam yang kita dok makan kat restoran seafood tu.. No, No, No..ye.. hikhik.. Resepinya simple sahaja.. Hanya ketam,serai yang diketuk atau halia dan air sahaja.. Orang kata ketam Nipah lagi baik. Tapi, tak kisahlah kan ketam apa pun. Ketam tu ketuk sikit-sikit kat kaki dia tu bagi pecah sikit-sikit.. Masuk je dalam air dengan serai atau halia tadi. Biarkan.. Pastu dah siap.. Minum sup dia dan makan isi ketam tu... Kita berusaha je, Allah yang izinkan segalanya....
4. Air rebusan daun pucuk betik.
Ya, air ni pun amat baik tau.. Try la kawan-kawan.. Saya tahu ni pun dari mak ayah saya.. Pastu, mak ayah mertua saya pun ada juga beritahu.. Kalau minum awal, InsyaAllah, akan sembuh.. Saya buat agak lambat. Sebab tak ada pokok betik sekitar rumah. Maklumlah rumah flat di tengah bandar.. daun betik ni saya dapat buat bila mak ayah mertua mai dari Kedah masa dah dua hari suami saya dok dalam wad... Jauh berjalan daun betik tu.. hihi.. Senang je, caranya.. Pilih daun yang muda-muda, yang pucuk tu. Tapi, jangan ambik yang baru nak jadi daun pulak... Sekali buat, ambik dalam 2 helai je.. Rebus dalam periuk. Agak-agak dah mendidih tu, dah la. Bila dah sejuk, bagi pesakit denggi minum.. Macam saya hari tu, say buat lebih sikit.. Pastu letak dalam tupperware, bawak pi hospital bagi Cik Abg saya minum.
5. Air Jus Jambu Batu.
Yang ni saya dapat tahu dari teman FB. Pastu bila saya google, memang ada yang minum. Saya beli yang dalam kotak tu je. Yang marigold peelfresh tu... Tapi, Cik Abg tak minum banyak pun. Sebab takde selera. Lagipun, air jambu batu ni sejuk kan?...
6. Kurma/Jus Kurma
Saya bagi Cik Abg saya makan buah kurma je.. Tak buat jus masa tu. Sebab Cik Abg kata selagi boleh makan, dia akan makan. Tak perlu nak buat jus.. Dia lagi selesa kunyah je.. Alhamdulillah..
7. Air kelapa.
Air kelapa pun saya ada bagi Cik Abg minum. Tapi masa tu tak tahu yang Cik Abg kena demam denggi. Ingatkan demam biasa,.. Air kelapa ni, doktor sendiri pun ada cakap pada saya masa Cik Abg kat dalam wad...
Ok, tips 1 sampai 7 ni memang yang saya bagi kat Cik Abg saya la.. Ada lagi beberapa tips yang boleh juga amalkan.. Antaranya :
8. Jus tembikai/buah tembikai.
Ok, yang ni memang ramai yang minum masa kat hospital. Saya nampak kat hospital, bila family dorang datang time waktu melawat, mesti bawak jus tembikai. Tapi, bila doktor atau nurse lalu, mesti dorang sorokkan air tembikai tu.. Tak tahu kenapa?.. Mungkin doktor larang kot?.. Eh tak tahulah saya.. saya tak bagi pun Cik Abg minum jus tembikai. Sebab dah banyak sangat jenis minuman yang dia minum kan.. Lagipun, tak terfikir nak beli Jus tembikai yang siap punya kat gerai. masa tu dok pikir , kat mana nak cari buah tembikai?.. Pastu macam mana nak angkut buah tembikai naik rumah flat tingkat 4?.. hahaha.. Blur masa tu kan..
9. Jus kiwi
Ok, jus kiwi ni pun bagus tau. masa saya kena suspect denggi, saya ada minum jus kiwi.. Pun saya beli yang dalam kotak marigold peelfresh je. Tapi, ada yang kata lagi baik kita beli buah kiwi dan blend sendiri je..
Tu je setakat yang saya tahu.. Ada lagi ke petua-petua lain?.. Kalau ada tulis kat kotak komen ye.. Tak salah kita bertukar-tukar petua untuk membantu yang memerlukan
Terima kasih! |

Spanish priest struck with Ebola becomes the first person brought to Europe for treatment as shocking pictures reveal how more bodies are being left in African streets
A Spanish priest has become the first person carrying the deadly Ebola virus to be brought back to Europe for treatment.
The revelation came as shocking new pictures emerged showing more victims being dumped in streets across west Africa by terrified relatives who fear being quarantined.
Liberia and Sierra Leone have declared a state of emergency, with hundreds of soldiers setting up roadblocks to stop rural residents reaching the cities as health experts discuss using untested drugs to stem the 900-strong death toll.
At a hospital in Madrid this morning, a convoy of medics in protective suits escorted missionary Miguel Pajares, 75, after he was repatriated on a specially-adapted Airbus plane from Liberia in west Africa.
He was put in quarantine on Saturday after testing positive for the killer disease.
Mr Pajares, who had been treating patients infected with Ebola at a hospital his Catholic humanitarian group runs, was flown back to Spain accompanied by a nun.
Although she was uninfected, she was also quarantined.
The pair were taken to an isolation ward at Madrid's Carlos III hospital as around 30 patients were reportedly evacuated.
'The patients have arrived well, though a little disoriented. They are both now in quarantine,' Madrid health official Javier Rodriguez told a news conference.
Twelve medical staff working in three shifts will care for them in a building which has been cleared of other patients.
Mr Pajares' condition overnight was initially said to have deteriorated according to local reports, which claimed he was on a drip and was now unable to walk unaided.
But Rafael Perez-Santamarina, director of Madrid's La Paz hospital, later said medical checks showed Mr Pajares was in stable condition.
Madrid regional government health chief Francisco Javier Rodriguez said neither of the patients were bleeding, which is a symptom of an advanced stage of the illness.
The priest's brother Emilio said he was 'worried but happy' about the transfer amid concerns within Spain that the nation's hospitals may not successfully contain the illness.
Mercedes Vinuesa, director general of public health in Spain, downplayed fears over the repatriation by insisting: 'The safety protocols we will use guarantee minimum risk.'
Mr Pajares had worked as a missionary in Africa for nearly five decades and was due to return to Spain for good in September.
Speaking before he was flown back he said: 'I'd like to return because we have a very bad experience of what's happened here.
'We are abandoned. We want to go to Spain and be treated like people.'
It comes after a Saudi man who was being treated for Ebola-like symptoms after visiting Sierra Leone died yesterday at a hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
If confirmed it would be the first Ebola death outside Africa.
In the worst-hit regions, meanwhile, new images show more victims lying in the street as chaos and fear reign among the authorities.

Obama Says It’s Too Soon to Send the Experimental Ebola Drug to Africa
On Wednesday the CDC confirmed that the suspected Ebola patient in New York does not have the deadly disease, but that's pretty much the only good news to emerge about the epidemic. While the outbreak is mostly confined to Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, it's suspected that the disease killed a man in Saudi Arabia, and in Nigeria nine people are infected. The World Health Organization announced that it's considering declaring an international public health emergency after 108 new cases were confirmed over the weekend, raising number of known infections to 1,711, with 932 deaths. And the apparent improvement of two America patients who received an experimental drug has sparked outrage over why the treatment isn't being made available to Africans.
This week, three leading Ebola researchers said in a statement that African governments should have the opportunity to use the experimental drugs, which have only been tested on primates. "It is highly likely that if Ebola were now spreading in Western countries, public-health authorities would give at-risk patients access to experimental drugs or vaccines," they said.

However, President Obama said at a press conference on Wednesday that it would be "premature" for him to weigh in on whether the serum, a drug cocktail called ZMapp, should be fast-tracked for approval or made available to patients outside the United States. "I think we've got to let the science guide us," Obama said. "And you know, I don't think all the information is in on whether this drug is helpful."
The president said the disease can be controlled when there is a "strong public health infrastructure in place," and for now the U.S. is focusing on helping the African countries contain the virus. "Let's help to bolster the systems that they already have in place. Let's nip as early as possible any additional outbreaks of the disease," he said. "And then during the course of that process, I think it's entirely appropriate for us to see if there are additional drugs or medical treatments that can improve the survivability of what is a very deadly and obviously brutal disease."
There are several major hurdles preventing the treatment from being distributed widely, as Arthur L. Caplan, director of the Division of Medical Ethics at NYU Langone Medical Center’s Department of Population Health, explains in the Washington Post. First, the medication is extremely expensive and in short supply. The Americans were only offered the drug because Samaritan's Purse, the organization they work for, sought out the untested treatments and made a deal with Mapp Pharmaceuticals in San Diego. It also requires careful handling and refrigeration, which is not available in many of the areas where the outbreak is the most severe.
Then there are the ethical concerns. While it's not clear if the drug works, or how it could be distributed, the World Health Organization is convening a panel of medical ethicists to explore its use. The organization said the treatment of the two Americans, "has raised questions about whether medicine that has never been tested and shown to be safe in people should be used in the outbreak and, given the extremely limited amount of medicine available, if it is used, who should receive it."
