I would Like to start with him and those who he mentored.
Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Thanks for the ping!
Keep an eye on it. The incubation period is a few weeks. Those give could have infected another 25 easy—and they are wandering around with the virus growing inside of them.
In addition, it hasnt been three weeks since Patrick the Infected strolled through town.
Nigeria is the lynch pin here...if it breaks out there it will go global. There are too many Western Oil folks in Nigeria to contain it. They have the means and the money to get out. And they will be bringing home more than postcards.
