@dailymail: The World Cup will have the 'perfect conditions' for infectious diseases to spread, an expert has warned. The rapid influx of tourists could spark outbreaks of infectious diseases, from respiratory viruses and foodborne illnesses to more serious threats such as Ebola. That's according to Dr. Andres Henao, Associate Professor of Medicine and Infectious Disease at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, who has outlined the biggest health threats experts are monitoring. The five-week tournament kicks off today, with millions of fans expected to descend on 16 cities across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. #worldcup #fifa #ebola #covid19 #Soccer
