South Korea's crowded hospital system and the outbreak of MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) in 2015

06/08/2015

South Korea's hospitals are crowded with patients waiting to get to larger hospitals and using networking to get hospital beds. Patients beds are in close proximity and caretakers live with patients, creating an atmosphere where rapid spread of inhaled droplets of the MERS vrius from coughing patients can occur. The result is 95 people infected with the virus and 2000 cases in a short time. The virus originates from camels in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
