1 Herpes zoster, or shingles, which is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox, can involve the cornea. 2  Conjunctivitis is inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin lining over the front of the eye and on the inner side of the eyelids. 3  Allergies or infections (viral or bacterial) can cause conjunctivitis.
So the real âcurseâ is in fact an oil price collapse. The current price collapse â for the first time since 2009 prices are below the symbolic $50 a barrel â is largely a result of the boom in shale oil production in the US, adding more than 3m barrels over the past few years. High prices bring investment and supply, and this boom was no different.
After the epic crash last year, the price of oil is stabilising and it should rise exponentially over the following years. Over the past year, global consumption has stayed weak. However, once the economy recovers, crude oil should resume its secular bull market.o, unless this is a permanent global recession (which I doubt), it is inevitable that the price of oil will go up significantly over the medium to long-term. On the supply side of the equation, let me be clear. If I was asked to pick the biggest threat to a sustainable economic recovery, âpeak oilâ would top that list.
