Many of the monitoring experts, too, are based in the capital. Months into the crisis, officials still remind themselves of the need to get out into the wider country to test their assumptions about the epidemic.Cowering in their 5-star digs? That's your typical UN in-country gig, is it not?

If the hospital beds are empty then why is Obola sending the Army to Liberia to build more hospitals?

Maybe or could be they have decided to refuse to come in as they know it’s likely they’ll die.

A while back, a very intelligent and mathematical FReeper posted a statistical study of projected Ebola spread. Now I can’t find that thread.
Did anyone bookmark it, and would you please post a link?

FR scouter did several progressive graphs ping or FR mail and request a repost
So far her tracking has pretty much proved out given B minus C plus data reliability

You may have hit on something there. The patients maybe are in the army hospitals where no one can see them or count them.
To: Covenantor
Found it! Thank you so much.

Maybe or could be they have decided to refuse to come in as they know its likely theyll die. Not that NOT going to hospital would be a bed of roses either, but if I had to bet, I'd bet you've hit on the most plausible explanation.
