Ebola virus disease(EVD) or Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF) is the human disease caused by the Ebolavirus. Symptoms start with a fever, sore throat, muscle pains, and headaches. Typicallynausea, vomiting, and diarrhea follow, along with decreased functioning of theliver and kidneys. At this point, some people begin to have bleeding problems.
Thedisease has high mortality rate: often killing between 50% and 90% of thoseinfected with the virus. EVD was first identified in Sudan and the DemocraticRepublic of the Congo. The disease typically occurs in outbreaks in tropicalregions of Sub-Saharan Africa. From 1976 (when it was first identified) through2013, fewer than 1,000 people per year have been infected. The largest outbreakto date is the ongoing 2014 West Africa Ebola outbreak, which is affectingGuinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Nigeria. As of August 2014 more than 1750suspected cases have been reported. Efforts are ongoing to develop a vaccine;however, none yet exists.
Theapplication of thermal imaging inspection is based on infrared radiation fromhuman body skin. Its noninvasive, comfortable and rapid inspection is veryimportant for an absolute passive and unharmed diagnostic tool. The history ofmedical thermal imaging diagnostic technology has been over decades which hasbeen proved to be an effective tool.
Rapid investigation of a large area temperatureanomalies staff
Screeningof "high temperature individual" in the crowd rapidly by infraredcameras which have been widely used in airports, terminals, railway stations,shopping malls, schools, hospitals, enterprises and other associations.
Non-contact screening. To guarantee the safety of testingpersonnel
Non-contacttemperature measurement, testing personnel can stay away from the populationtesting objects, to avoid cross contact with infections;
Easily control
Directdisplay image of temperature. No stopping, standing or any movement to completethe test;
Abnormal temperature alarm
Automaticsearch. Alarm will be triggered with suspected patients with abnormal bodytemperature. This tool can facilitate a timely isolation checks.
