Truppia Tomas 5°” A” Humanities

Well, I found the lecture pretty interesting, must because of the

reminiscence it gives to me to the coronavirus outbreak we are having right
now.

If I´m not mistaken the speaker is Bill Gates, founder of Apple, no no I

´m joking, he is the founder of Microsoft, the eternal rival of Apple and vice
versa. His story is very, very interesting, when he saw the technology of the
“prehistorical windows” -let´s call it that way- he knew that was the future of
computers and instantly brought it –for pocket money compared to what it
costs now-, I learned about him to be able to recognize the moment and know
how to capitalize a unique opportunity when it is in front of my eyes.

The Ebola virus disease (EVD), also known as Ebola hemorrhagic

fever (EHF) or simply Ebola, is a viral hemorrhagic fever of humans and
other primates caused by ebolaviruses. Signs and symptoms typically start
between two days and three weeks after contracting the virus with
a fever, sore throat, muscular pain, and headaches.  The virus spreads
through direct contact with body fluids, such as blood from infected humans or
other animals. Spread may also occur from contact with items recently
contaminated with bodily fluids. It didn´t spread more simply because we were
lucky, and mostly of 2 reasons:

1-The person that is infected starts showing symptoms after a short

time, slowing the spread.

2- There wasn´t an outbreak in cities or highly populated areas.

Argentina is not ready to affront a coronavirus outbreak, the health

system is very precarious and most important the people in the country think
only for themselves, some examples of this are the people who came back from
traveling and didn’t do the quarantine or the people that breaks the quarantine
now simply to go play some football or do a birthday or eat an asado, and that is
outrageous.

The investment in the health system is poor, and the infrastructure of it is

even worse, we are not ready to take thousands or hundreds of thousands of
sick people, if this happens the system will collapse and things will be much
worse.
