Admin’s Note

I am deeply saddened to learn that the outbreak of Ebola hemorrhagic fever has once again reached a serious situation. The fact that there are over 3,000 reported deaths highlights the urgent need for us to seriously consider this issue. The United Nations’ call for funding underscores the importance of a united response from the international community. I believe we must also pay attention to this problem and think about what we can do to help.
