Thank you for that good reply.

Speaking of Malaria....

Rumor has it THAT is what they are now calling Ebola for any new cases. Even though it’s rare for someone with Malaria to die bleeding out all of their Orpheus (including, nose, ears, eyes, etc). Supposedly they are doing this in order not to create a panic. I would be interested to see if there has been a sudden increase in Malaria cases in Africa?

Nevertheless, if the above is true, then we will find out in time.

Now I see your later post: malaria. We get thousands of those a year in the US. 99.9% of them fly in. The rest, just a handful, are spread from those cases. The problem is that Ebola is going to be just like that but with a much bigger impact and spread. With Duncan's case we were basically just lucky.

They will label malaria malaria as they always have, but it seems unlikely they will try to label ebola malaria since that would create major problems when it spreads.
