It's the end of a four month long outbreak in humans. Not the total end of Ebola, unfortunately (which has been around much longer than a decade), as there are natural reservoirs of the disease in animals.

The concern with this recent outbreak was it would run out of control and spread more widely than the usual range for Ebola, as happened with monkeypox. The good news is, it has now been contained and that's not going to happen. But Ebola still exists as a pathogen in the wild, and can pose a threat again in future.

I bet you are also not convinced by the rising temperature in the oceans, or the fact that the ice is melting.

No matter what you think about the ozone layer or how much you are willing to wait to confirm it, science is science and it will remain so without you believing it. Just like math. Or simple logic.

BTW, the ozone layer is one of the least complicated notions about our planet’s atmosphere.

If the stock market crashes due to an unforeseeable event and it causes all your savings to be wiped out, is that your fault?
