Time for more ‘diversity visas’ and amnesty now! /sarc
Like any virus, it will do what it has to do to propagate efficiently.
Keep the borders open and martial law at home.
I’m sure that the eugenicists and population control freaks are ecstatic.
Less than 300 doctors in all Liberia. Medical profession hard hit by this illness.
This graph hasn't been updated for the Sept 10 figures, because the vertical isn't high enough. Latest WHO report has 4846 cases, 2375 deaths. Note you can't divide deaths by cases to get a death rate, because a lot of the cases are new and haven't had a chance to die yet.
On Aug 21 I projected at the then current rate of spread, we'd have 10,000 cases in 30 days. Cases have doubled since that time. Still got 9 days to go, but it now looks like it will be Sept 30 before we get to 10,000, instead of Sept 21st.
Thanks for posting. Health/life BUMP!
Coming soon to a neighborhood near you courtesy the obola administration.

Didn’t they say this about AIDS?
Bring Out Your Dead
Were gonna need
a bigger cart!
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
PING!
