Two Ebola patients, who died of the virus in separate communities in Nimba County have reportedly resurrected in the county. The victims, both females, believed to be in their 60s and 40s respectively, died of the Ebola virus recently in Hope Village Community and the Catholic Community in Ganta, Nimba. But to the amazement of residents and onlookers on Monday, the deceased reportedly regained life in total disbelief. The NewDawn Nimba County correspondent said the late Dorris Quoi of Hope Village Community and the second victim only identified as Ma Kebeh, said to be in her late 60s, were about to be taken for burial when they resurrected. Ma Kebeh had reportedly been in door for two nights without food and medication before her alleged death. Nimba County has had bazaar news of Ebola cases with a native doctor from the county, who claimed that he could cure infected victims, dying of the virus himself last week. News of the resurrection of the two victims has reportedly created panic in residents of Hope Village Community and Ganta at large, with some citizens describing Dorris Quoi as a ghost, who shouldn't live among them. Since the Ebola outbreak in Nimba County, this is the first incident of dead victims resurrecting. |

America has a long rich history of the dead coming back to life. Think of the Clintons, John Kerry, The Chan woman from WHO, Juan Williams of FOX and last but not least the man who seems to have a problem finding his birth certificate who lives in a house with the front door unlocked. The aforementioned crew is almost as scary as Ebola.

Hi the post that I originally put this to has been removed. It was right after drumfish last post. Just was replying to someone complaining about the humour on this topic.
Can I be so rude as to make a distinction. I don't think we are laughing at the suffering of people, many posters on here have persistently expressed deep sympathy, and outrage for those caught up in this horror, and if we could change the situation we would. Our governments are sending aid, and volunteers ( even from the NHS hospital I work in ), and troops from US. No one would grudge these people, and I think over and over people here have strongly expressed suspicion and outrage at the lack of care and lack of action. However in this thread it is this particular article, and the way it has been written that is funny, it would be funny no matter what the disease. Imagine your neighbour died, you went to the funeral, next morning you get up open the blinds and there he is putting out the rubbish waving at you...you would be like...what the...then next week it happens again....it is the article and the village reaction. On top of that this whole situation has been like a nightmare horror film, and now walking dead. Can the care of these people get any worse. There is also a definite pseudobulbar affect i.e. inappropriate Laughing such as at a funeral. That doesn't make us wicked and bad. So yes maybe it is wrong to laugh, but I assure you in most people case it is at the actual article, not the overall situation. |

In other developments, Joan Rivers was flown to Liberia for postmortem evaluation, and was seen the next day at a local restaurant in Liberia eating fried chicken and celebrating with friends - and giving a thumbs up to the crowd.
Meanwhile, the deceased Patrick Sawyer made a quick statement to reporters while Jogging at a local park in Lagos and was quoted as saying, "I did not pee on those people". And then quickly recanted by saying, "Well I liked it, and I know they did too". |

I don't see this as a negative at all, if we can get them to bury themselves two days after they die it will be easier on everyone else.

Good point talon. If the zombies are also immune now to ebola, maybe they can help out in the hospitals for awhile too. Plus they could be nice zombies and maybe people can keep them as pets. You never know.

Let's not forget
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/man-bitten-ebola-patient-flown-switzerland-25677039 Swiss authorities say a male nurse who was bitten by an Ebola patient while working in West Africa has been flown to Switzerland as a precaution. The health ministry says the unidentified man was working for an international organization in Sierra Leone when he was bitten by a child infected with Ebola on Saturday. The ministry says the nurse was wearing protective gear and is unlikely to have contracted the disease. It said the man, who was flown to Switzerland by a private transport company Monday, will be kept under observation at Geneva's University Hospital for the incubation period of three weeks. The ministry said it was the first medical transport to Switzerland from the Ebola-affected region. |

Plus they've been worried about a mutation. On another note, this might sound odd, but I wouldn't mind having one of those zombies as a possible pet down the road. A Zombie, mans best friend.
Wonder if Sawyer can be potty trained. |

Came across the news on snopes and apparently it's a mystery.
Resident EbolaClaim: Two female Ebola victims mysteriously resurrected as their corpses were being transported for burial.
Example: [Collected via E-mail, September 2014]
Can you verify the story about 2 dead Ebola patients in Liberia
coming back to life before burial?
Origins: On 24 September, Monrovia, Liberia-based newspaper The New Dawn published an article regarding an unusual occurrence in Nimba County. According to the local news source, two deceased victims of Ebola had mysteriously come back to life just prior to their burials. The strange and sudden resurrection of two Ebola patients had naturally frightened local residents, all of whom are already living with the specter of a terrifying and deadly outbreak of the disease. The article was titled "Dead Ebola patients resurrect?" and it began:
Two Ebola patients, who died of the virus in separate communities in
Nimba County have reportedly resurrected in the county. The victims,
both females, believed to be in their 60s and 40s respectively, died of
the Ebola virus recently in Hope Village Community and the Catholic
Community in Ganta, Nimba.
But to the amazement of residents and onlookers on Monday, the deceased reportedly regained life in total disbelief. The NewDawn Nimba County correspondent said the late Dorris Quoi of Hope Village Community and the second victim only identified as Ma Kebeh, said to be in her late 60s, were about to be taken for burial when they resurrected. The newspaper lists the "Ebola resurrection" as one of a few unusual happenings in the course of the current outbreak in the region, adding:
Ma Kebeh had reportedly been in door for two nights without food and
medication before her alleged death. Nimba County has had bazaar news of
Ebola cases with a native doctor from the county, who claimed that he
could cure infected victims, dying of the virus himself last week.
News of the resurrection of the two victims has reportedly created panic in residents of Hope Village Community and Ganta at large, with some citizens describing Dorris Quoi as a ghost, who shouldn't live among them. Since the Ebola outbreak in Nimba County, this is the first incident of dead victims resurrecting. While the report was widely aggregated to several international news outlets, a few key aspects remain unclear. No reports address how the patients were declared dead, or what transpired between that moment and their miraculous resurrections. What's more, the death of a medical professional who had previously claimed an ability to "cure Ebola" is not a "bazaar" [sic] development. As of September 2014, the only treatments, vaccines or cures for Ebola are experimental, are not available in Africa, and are in the research stage. As such, it's very likely that any individual claiming to have an Ebola cure would a) come in contact with the virus frequently, and b) be at a high risk for contracting and/or succumbing to the disease himself. No corroborating reports of Ebola resurrections have surfaced since the initial story was published in Liberia, and no details have emerged to clarify the circumstances under which the patients "died."

Wow. Talk about Zombies. I wonder if the "New Dawn" is related to an African Church in Aurora Colorado or the New Dawn based out of Burbank CA in the 70's. They were a newspaper of sorts. Run out of town after being exposed as an FBI-linked front to infiltrate a peculiar religious identity movement. The New Dawn has been getting slowly around it looks like. Like a Zombie.

It's odd in itself that the story was never confirmed as hoax. I suppose until further notice, if a zombie auction comes up and if someone wants sawyer, still make sure he's trained to use the litter box.

I generally hate hoaxes... But, sometimes they are so far out, like this one, that they can serve as comic relief to give a break from the actual horror that is reality.

I didn't get a chance to read the responses on this thread so maybe this has already been said. In Africa, especially west and east, there is a very strong belief in voodoo. It is called Juju here but west Africa is where voodoo was actually born. So if 2 people who were thought dead because they would not get close enough to check them good got up and walked because they were actually alive chaos would happen. The people would definitely believe they were brought back from the dead by some evil witch doctor. You would have a near impossible time convincing most that they were not dead in the first place. I have seen many crazy things here myself. I may find a lot of it quite amusing but to some here it is very serious.

Great point 7laws, I've heard of this multiple times on legit news sites... "Man comes back from the dead at his own funeral...". I've seen it where it was a child or a baby also... and no offense but it's always a 3rd world country type thing... where likely the person was not dead to begin with, just thought to be, not a situation where they were declared medically deceased.

I think it used to happen with led poisoning back in the 1300's.
They thought the people were dead, and then they came back to life,
etc..

And then there is the Amanita Muscaria, Mexicana or whatever other "a"'s they take to have a near death experience with the gods and come back like zombies from the dead. That's all they're doing over there and elsewhere is taking what we over here call poison and doing the voodoo dance. For all we know these people could have taken Ebola like it was a party drug.

I believe that zombification was achieved with bufotoxin, a curare like poison, extracted from cane toads.
This produced a fantastically low metabolic rate and both breathing and heartbeat became undetectable to the poor medical facilites of the island (they were still there). In hot, poor countries, like Hati, the dead were burried very quickly, usually within 24 hours. The Bokor (black magic priest) would then return to the grave after nightfall and exhume the victim at roughly the time the toxin wore off. Though still alive, the person would usually suffer brain damage from anoxia, plus huge psychological trauma. Bokors would have a knowledge of psychological techniques and this coupled with the superstitions of the islanders rendered the hapless victim efectively without a will of his own. The perfect slave. You do not shoot the zombie, Boss. You shoot his maker. With great pleasure! I suspect the poor people who are ebola zombies are recovering from a brief coma. I hope they escape at least some of the superstition that surrounds the state. A last chilling note. Being buried alive is not uncommon, or at least it wasn't until the monitors of modern medicine were commonplace. If you want nightmares read "The Romeo Error". |

Getting crazy on the moonshine.....can have the same effect. Large dose alcohol ingestion increases the risk of acquiring or aggravating hypothermia. Although the clinical presentation may be such that the victim appears dead, ie the victim is not breathing and is pulseless, this is associated with marked depression of cerebral blood flow and oxygen requirement, reduced cardiac output, and decreased arterial pressure.....bla bla bla. Full resuscitation with intact neurological recovery is possible. However in my scientific opinion, aided by my secondhand shop 1970s encyclopaedia, I have to agree with Drumfish...the evidence is sadly overwhelming pointing to Zombies. Whether it is the mad eyed rampaging swift moving variety or the slow shufflers garden variety I am not sure. Does anyone know the incubation time, all eyes on the bitten Swiss nurse and we will hold our nerve until then. Disclaimer. In no way am I insinuating that poor Dorris and Ma brewed, distilled, or participated in the consumption of moonshine, hooch or other methanol loaded beverages. These poor woman have been through enough being called ghosts, undead death eaters and such like. Disclaimer 2. In no way have I been at the moonshine tonight. |

Hee Hee.....and there is so little alcohol in Scotland, so hard to come by.. Buckfast...our other national drink. I have actually crossed the border into England for a few weeks. Air feels heavy and misty, suspicious, will keep a look out for any emerging evidence of ongoing Zombification....nothing obvious as yet except a few suspicious greenish garden gnomes in hotel garden.

Sorry Techno. You are right. And I knew this from a long time ago. The frog toxin. The mushrooms were the Myans or Aztecs -or both. What we call deadly toad stools they used to eat to have near death experiences to meet their god. But like the pyramids, they all were into the same kinds of rituals.
