The interval between the onset of symptoms and death has been 48 hours in the majority of cases, and “that’s what’s really worrying,” Serge Ngalebato, medical director of Bikoro Hospital, a regional monitoring center, told The Associated Press.
The latest disease outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo began on Jan. 21, and 419 cases have been recorded including 53 deaths.

Do they? Most everywhere people eat basically the same shit. Preparation methods vary and there’s substitutions historically based on available resources but globalisation has practically obliterated all that.
I’m not a westoid BTW I’ve traveled a decent amount.
Buffalo sauce is a rare sight in Europe, as is white gravy. Americans consider them an everyday occurrence.
man what part of america are you in lol. I’ve never seen either of those as an everyday occurrence, though you will find them if you go to a southern fried chicken joint.
…the south lol
Of course. Do you eat bats too? FWIW, when I was in federal service overseeing biotechnolgical modifications of animals, I and my reports were discussing some permit requests that came to us in conjunction with our duties. One of the permits requests included an animal that was unknown to us at the time. When the critter was mentioned, I and one of my reports (both of us are of an ethnicity stereotypically known to have wide-ranging culinary tastes) turned to each other and wondered aloud, “I wonder if they are good to eat?”.
What on earth do you put on your biscuits, if not white gravy?
