I have spent a little time compiling links to threads about the Ebola outbreak in the interest of having all the links in one thread for future reference.
Please add links to new threads and articles of interest as the situation develops.
Thank You all for you participation.

Went through the Atlanta airport a few hours ago. Walked from one end to the other, including, unfortunately, one of the international terminals. Saw ONE person with a mask on.

Gallery: Ebola in Guinea - Finda Marie's story
20 May 2014 MSF
After a phone call, an MSF team goes to Finda Marie Kamano's home, age 33. She reported extreme weakness, vomiting, and dysentery. These symptoms, along with fever and nosebleeds, are typical of those caused of the Ebola virus.
An MSF doctor takes her temperature. At 36.6C she has no fever. Although the Ebola virus often causes a fever, the fact that she does not have one is not a decisive factor in determining whether or not a patient is infected.
Finda decided to walk to the ambulance by herself, even though it is difficult for her to walk the 30 metros.
When she arrived at the treatment centre, Finda Marie is seen by a nurse in a protective suit and is given a bed in the area reserved for suspicious cases, that is, patients with symptoms but who have not yet been tested for Ebola.
Wearing a protective suit, a doctor checks Finda, who complains of severe stomach pain.
An MSF team disinfects Finda Marie Kamanos home. She had just been confirmed the day as suffering from Ebola. Like the mattress, anything that could not be disinfected with bleach is burned.
The water and sanitation team disinfects the home of a patient infected with the Ebola virus. Whatever cannot be disinfected, such as mattresses, will be burned. The team offers new mattresses with pillows and mosquito nets to replace them.
Two days after testing positive for Ebola, Finda Marie Kamano dies. The sanitary team dresses the deceased to present her to her family to show them that she is indeed the one in the sealed body bag.
The burial takes place near her house. Traditional funerals are one of the causes of the propagation of the Ebola virus. Finda had previously prepared the body of a victim, and that was most likely how she contracted the disease.
I learned something new today about symptomatic ebola and it is something I wondered about. Prior to an immune response, there may not be a fever while the virus is replicating. I had read that a later onset immune response in many cases leads to a cytokine storm. This is one of the characteristics reported about the "New Ebola."

Just documenting the timeline of reports is interesting.
