If you look at the initial Liberia graph on the tweetpic in 944 it looks like the one from Nigeria. The difference is the seriousness with which it was treated by the health professionals. Nigeria immediately did proactive things to stop it. The Liberian doctors ‘didn’t believe’ in ebola and spread it to all their patients. Who spread it to their families. Etc. And now their case graph, 3 months later, is straight up.
The ‘hero’ doctor, Brisbane, won’t be a ‘hero’ when it’s all said and done in Liberia.
I would think he will rank about as high as the Nigerians rate Patrick Sawyer.
