    Speakers Name: _Chandler White ______________________________________________


    Speech Topic: Ebola_________________________________________________
    General Purpose: To Inform
    Central Idea (Main Goal): How does Ebola affect people, and what are the symptoms? Is there a
    cure for the virus?
    A. Introduction
    Attention Grabber: Have any of you ever been curious or questionable about what Ebola does to
    you?
    Basic Facts about Ebola:
    Named after the Ebola River in Africa
    The first human case was in 1976
    Most infected areas are in West Africa
    Five Strains: Bundibugyo, Reston, Sudan, Ivory Coast, and Zaire
    Most commonly spread by wild animals like fruit bats
    Materials: PowerPoint
    So now you know just some basic information about Ebola, lets dive deeper into the topic.
    B. Body
    How does Ebola affect humans?
    A.
    1. Attacks every organ and tissue in the body except the bones and skeletal
    muscles
    2. Release proteins that dampen down the immune system response
    B.
    1. Causes blood clots in the bloodstream, and blood clots dont let blood go to the
    organs of the body
    2. Causes red spots on the patients skin, and they grow as the disease progresses
    C.
    1. Causes spontaneous bleeding from needle injections, and rips from the skin
    2. Death is caused by huge loss of blood, renal failure, and shock

    So, these are just some of the awful things that Ebola can do to you, but that is only if you have
    the disease. Now I am going to talk about the symptoms of the disease.

    Symptoms of Ebola
    A.
    1. Fever
    2. Strong headaches and joint and muscle pain
    B.
    1. After first symptoms diarrhea occurs
    2. Stomach pains and vomiting
    C.
    1. Lastly, internal and external bleeding
    2. Bleeding can come from the eyes, nose, and tongue
    So now that we know about the symptoms of Ebola, lets talk about a cure.
    Is There A Cure For Ebola?
    A.
    1. Unfortunately, there is no cure
    2. Survival is low
    B.
    1. We are working towards a vaccine
    2. Currently there is no vaccine for the disease
    C.
    1. Americans have taken an experimental drug and have shown to make progress
    2. Gives us hope in finding a cure
    So, unfortunately there is no cure, but like I said, there is hope for one.
    C. Conclusion
    So in conclusion, these are the main topics I am interested in relating to Ebola.

    I hope I have informed you on how to know what Ebola does, the symptoms, and the
    cure.
