“As far as I know every known Ebola patient that came to the USA has recovered. That is called 100% folks.”
This is what I said a few weeks ago. Africa: They don’t bathe, wash clothes, they eating rotting “bush meat” whatever the hell that is - they don’t get vegetables, they have no money, they have the mentality of 4 year olds about lists being compiled and people trying to help....
Sorry, like Mr. Butler, I just don’t give a damn.....
The Nigerian medicos were educated, well fed (they have Shop Rite’s in Lagos), lived in homes with water seal flush potties, were vaccinated and still roughly half of those who got it died.

Their ‘Specials’ look not unlike the local specials at Kroger or Pathmark.
I don’t see ‘bushmeat’ listed there though. In fact, it would appear that this particular outbreak originated when a bat bit a 2yr old.
And I guarantee Dr. Adedevoh lived somewhere like this at the VERY least, probably somewhere much more luxurious in fact. Lekki is ‘middle class’ now, not unlike Long Island after WWII:
Clearly that one was just completed.
The point being, the Nigerian medicos were middle class, upper middle class and Dr. Adedevoh was upper class (her bio makes this plain). Even middle class Lagosians have flush potties now, even if only one in the home (like most homes built in the US until the 1970’s). And most of them no longer shop in the open markets, preferring to shop at the grocery stores like we have here. Social status is very important to the up-and-comers there, open markets are something your grandmother shopped at.
None of this prevented their contracting ebola. And half of them died from it.
