That 49.5% number is interesting. In these cultures the women are responsible for caring for the ill, so you expect to see more women infected than men simply due to greater exposure to infectious fluids. That it’s now evenly distributed between males and females says something about the nature of this outbreak but I’m not sure precisely what.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Maybe that it's much easier to catch then they're letting on....
