An epidermic 

An epidermic had hit hard in our country. The disease was curable but the vaccines were not available in the country since it was not expected. Many people got sick and especially in my county since the disease was caused by eating birds e.g chicken, ingoho as it is known in my home town which means chicken is our staple food. 
The hospitals flooded with sick patients seeking the little help they could get. Luckily the news hit the television and the government was informed about it. They knew that they had to seek assistance as fast as they could. The world health organization (WHO) found ways of distributing vaccines and medicines to the local hospitals. 
Thankfully the medicines got in time to save the remaining patients. I was lucky to be alive and breathing though I was seriously ill. The government from then has been prepared for epidermics.
