除了非洲地区,受埃博拉感染危险度较高的是英国和法国,相对较安全的是印度和中国。但是英国和法国的医疗保健系统更先进,所以对埃博拉疫情的防护可能也会更有效。而相比之下,中国尤其是印度的医疗保健体系不够完善,且国家人口数量庞大,因此不能对埃博拉掉以轻心。
Peter Piot, who helped discover and name the virus, told the Guardian about his concerns with an outbreak in India:
发现并对埃博拉命名的彼得•派奥特表示了他对印度地区爆发疫情的担忧:
But an outbreak in Europe or North America would quickly be brought under control. I am more worried about the many people from India who work in trade or industry in west Africa. It would only take one of them to become infected, travel to India to visit relatives during the virus's incubation period, and then, once he becomes sick, go to a public hospital there. Doctors and nurses in India, too, often don't wear protective gloves. They would immediately become infected and spread the virus.
“如果在欧洲或是北美爆发疫情则可以很快控制住。我更担心的是那些在西非工作或做生意的印度人。只要这其中有一个人受到感染,之后在潜伏期之内回印度探亲,这时候一旦他表现出症状,他就会去公共医院就医。而印度的医生和护士也都没有穿着防护服。他们可能会立刻受到感染并传染给其他人。”
