Ebola – CDC: By the end of the year, 1.4 million people will be infected with Ebola… 62 percent dying

During a talk at the National Defense University, the commander of U.S. Southern Command painted a grim picture of the Ebola problem that's facing the world.

He said, according to the CDC, by the end of the year there should be 1.4 million people infected with the virus with 62% of these people dying from it.

Marine Corps General John F Kelly said it's a real possibility that the virus will spread to Central and South America.

He said there could be mass migration into the United States from countries that cannot handle the virus. If it spreads to Central or South America, people will flee to the US to run from the virus or to get better treatment if they are infected.

Much like in West Africa there are countries in the west where, if Ebola begins to spread, it will be very difficult for them to contain it.
