Disagree with what, my post 19, no.

It sounds like you want to go off on some tangent, go ahead, you don’t need me to do that.

Your lack of an answer is answer enough.

Lack of wanting to go off on your tangent?

If you want to rant, you don’t need anyone to get off into the various areas you want to go into, just start writing on it.

Everybody has been very carefully watching this 3 day event to see if it disrupts the epidemic cycle. If it does, it is going to be analyzed from top to bottom, and used in future outbreaks just about everywhere.

So for all we know this woman could have coughed the virus into the air, and don’t get me started on water sanitation.

Conditions are rough in Africa.

Out of the 26 outbreaks of Ebola over the decades, this is the worst.

Me too, this whole outbreak has been persisting for more than one month so far, I do hope the 3 day lockdown has a decent effect, but still important to prepare in case it doesn’t.

Looks like they are carrying her by her 4 limbs into a treatment center. Cannot use a stretcher I guess.

"unless that graph suddenly takes a nosedive I am not optimistic."

I know. That's what I'm thinking too. It won't actually nose dive, because the cases won't ever go down unless they got mis-diagnosed in the first place, but we need to see the slope level out and go flat.

There's another graph on Wikipedia that shows new cases. It's up and down, but trending up. That's the one that needs to nosedive.

my local supermarkets have been having bottled water ‘sale’ almost every week for the last couple of months- very unusual

But I have been buying at least a case a week, and any canned goods that I normally use that are on a “buy one get on free” sale I also get a case.

The only thing I DO NOT have stocked is a few cases of toilet paper- do not forget that! and keep it wrapped tight- it will absorb moisture and swell-up if you puncture the plastic wrap on a case - I used to poke my fingers through it because it made it easier to grab.

And google a ‘Rossi Circuit Judge’ and stock up on one or two. I don;’t know why but I love this thing for home protection. A 410 may not take out structural walls like a 12 gauge but it will still ruin someone’s day. And it will shoot 45 cal too
