I was hoping to share the spreadsheet itself, as a working model, so others on Free Republic could critique the underlying assumptions, formulas, etc. There is embedded information in it that will identify me. Like I said, I don't want my employer to take the hit if I am, as another poster said, completely wacko.
The link shows a map with brief comments on the spread of Ebola. Tells in personal terms how it can spread and multiply, along with the numbers. The comments for the first dot on the map:
Dec 6, 2013 — The outbreak’s first suspected victim, a 2-year-old Guinean boy living in Meliandou village, dies after four days of fever, vomiting and diarrhea. The boy’s mother dies 10 days later, followed by his 3-year-old sister on Dec. 29, and his grandmother on New Year’s Day. Over the next few weeks, a local nurse and a village midwife also die.
I’m no expert, but the only thing I’ve seen on Excel spreadsheets that identifies the source can be easily changed/deleted and is under “file”, then “properties”.
