“Ebola crisis: Speed and extent of outbreak ‘unprecedented’”
There are numerous possible reasons for the different mortality rates, but I wonder how much reporting/recording issues affect the stats there.
Well, Liberia did have a bunch of people who tested positive, so were included in the ‘cases’, but were sent home because there wasn’t room to treat them. So they were recorded as ‘cases’ but if they died and were buried by their families weren’t recorded subsequently as ‘deaths’.
That sort of thing may be affecting the ratio of mortality and morbidity.
I would think he will rank about as high as the Nigerians rate Patrick Sawyer.
Yeah, probably.
Patrick may be the least popular boys name in Nigeria next year.

Interesting. No live virus research is permitted in Israel.

First pic is kind of brutal.
