According to OFFICIAL (and underestimated) stats, the rate of Ebola cases has gone from 36 per day to 64 per day in just the past week. At this rate the average per day new Ebola cases will be over 100 per day in just a week from now. And that is based on OFFICIAL stats which according to this report underestimates the real total.
FYI
PJ, where are you getting your numbers. I’ve been using a spreadsheet to track cases and deaths, and using some normalizing to get the numbers down to averages. The reporting isn’t daily. Sometimes there are 2 and 3 day gaps in the figures, and then there are massive spikes.
What I have for AVG new cases per day is 21.6, and deaths per day, AVG is up to 11.2.
I have trend line figures that are starting to go ballistic.
The numbers I’m using are the WHO/CDC numbers that have been posted to a wiki page - 2014 West Africa Ebola Outbreak.
If you have another source, I’d been interested in comparing those numbers with what CDC is putting out.
Thx
