"This is the biggest and most complex Ebola outbreak in history," Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said in a statement.
"It will take many months, and it won't be easy, but Ebola can be stopped," he said. "We know what needs to be done."
Ebola spreads through contact with organs and bodily fluids such as blood, saliva, urine and other secretions of infected people. It has no known cure.

932 that they have documented. How many others did they not know about who died at home?
That’s still not many, especially for those outside of those few countries.
Maybe what remains of the health care workers in these countries just aren’t into doing tests on corpses anymore.
Those which do report to work probably have other priorities.
Yes, but it's enough to make the process of containing exposure extremely complicated.

CNN gets it wrong ... AGAIN.
There are not 932 confirmed Ebola deaths. There are 603 confirmed Ebola deaths.
There are 932 total deaths (confirmed, probable, and suspected Ebola.)

Dr. Tom Frieden ..... Obama political appointee. As with most libs, they’re more concerned with the little ‘PC” things that don’t matter so much as opposed to the big stuff that will kill you .... and of course, along with their interference in your everyday life comes loss of individual liberty/freedoms to accomplish their goals. Look him up ..... here’s a small sampling:
Frieden has been criticized by interest groups from across the political spectrum – especially advocates for the tobacco and restaurant industries. The New York Post quipped that Frieden had turned the city into a “nanny state on steroids.” These criticisms did not diminish after he was appointed as Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “Frieden’s stick-over-carrot, for-your-own-good approach to public health is no longer confined to the Big Apple,” the fast food, alcohol, and tobacco industry-backed Center for Consumer Freedom wrote on its blog. “Get ready, because the ‘nanny state on steroids’ is going national.”
There is no way to count all the sick and dead. Bodies are in houses, being tossed in the street and the infected are running away into the bush. There is no way for an accurate count whether living or dead.
let’s say i crafted an email containing instructions to send it to 2 people at noon.
then i sent the email to you.
within the first week, only 128 people would have received it. no big deal.
by the end of the 2nd week, 16,384 people would have received it. getting a bit more serious.
within 30 days, it would’ve been sent to 1,073,741,824 people ... 4,294,967,296 total 2 days later
yea, it’s a big issue

“Remain calm!”
I still say it’s a bad batch of Liberian canned killer clams.
