Perhaps Ebola does not kill off that fast?

The death rate is any where between 70% to 85% is what I have heard. Thus, why it’s 2 out of 3.

My limited understanding is that there are several different strains of Ebola, some more fatal than others. The one they're fighting now is one of the more fatal versions. But again, they're fighting it in countries with no hospitals as we would recognize them, no health care infrastucture, few doctors or nurses, and a population that for the most part has little or no education or access to hard information. It's a bit different here. I'm not trying to play down the seriousness of Ebola but I'm not going to go rounding up the "Bring out your dead" wagons either.
