The last real death rate number was 84%. I guess it is coming down but somehow the rounded 70% number does not give me confidence they are telling the truth.

They were playing with the numbers in most news stories before by adding new cases in with those who had passed through the disease to give us the supposedly non panic worthy number of 50%.

I wonder why they don’t start planning for SANATARIUMS...like in the olden days, people diagnosed with T.B were sent out of town to a special asylum complex to get treatment with VERY limited access and visitors. I dread going to hospitals knowing in the next room is someone with Ebola.

Logic is that with the breakdown in Liberia and maybe other places there are people who are dying and not being reported.

The death rate must be higher. I heard a lot of families and villages were burying dead that were never “confirmed” to be ebola. IMO, it is well over 85% but hey, 70% sounds better.

So far, the death rate of west Africans in the U.S. is 100%.

The death rate is not going to come down until Obola is out of office.
