Interesting, useful and appreciated, as always.

I've perceived a fog on hard numbers descending over the affected west African nations, aside from what can only be described as anecdotal asides in a handful of mostly Western news stories, most of these repetitions of week old or more figures.

If this is an actual phenomena, it could be credited to the governments there being overwhelmed, negation and other forms of disinformation, or both, of course.

Because you have your ear to the rail, as it were, are you also perceiving a darth of reported, hard numbers of infection and deaths?

Whom do you look to for your reliable sources, other than the WHO, for example?

The CDC number of 3330 death was added, and what other various sources are saying around the world. Perhaps it's incorrect? Anyhow it's just a projection.

For what its worth, if many of these 3rd world countries collapse because of the Ebola, then it will probably invite a flood of infected immigrants here. Since we now have an open door policy and they can fly here too.

We will know for sure in the next 6 months.
