Underreported by a factor of at least 3 which means in reality about 25,000 cases now.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

I heard some IDIOT on a radio show the other day saying

“Oh the media are ignoring the good news! The number of reported cases in West Africa is going down!”

These IDIOTS! People in West Africa are in frenzy, conspiracy theories, witchcraft accusations are running rampant. Of course less people are reporting themselves, they believe the hospitals are killing people.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all if more than 25,000 across the region had it, either in the symptomatic or incubation phase. Could it transmit to animals? The Spaniards seem to think so.

Obola has our doors wide open for Mega-Death to hit the homeland

still, when HIV became the rage of the day, we were lectured repeatedly that all of Africa was going to die.....it hasn't....

those people seem to live on the edge of civilization as far as health practices, and they are at high risk for viruses...
