Senegal now has a suspected case.
Mali had a suspect but it tested negative.

The reports of the economy drying up in affected countries are going to start making governments leary of reporting.

I said that in an earlier post when I quoted the PR guy from Brazil. To my knowledge they never said whether a suspect had tested positive or negative, just that Brazil was ebola-free. Which might mean the suspect had died.

It reminded me of Jaws. No, we are not closing the beaches.

“Mali had a suspect but it tested negative.”

The faster ELISA test has a very high rate of false negatives, and I don’t believe they have the results back on the blood sent out for the other test.

Also of note- the man who died in Jeddah had been on a medical mission, serving as an ER doctor in Sierra Leon.
