They just want to keep the government paychecks rolling in. They just don't care how many are dead. They just know they need more money cause they want more money. Government types never want to be held responsible for failure. The failure is always due to a lack of funding. Never mind that 95% of the money is wasted on ineffective nonsense. Just how much money does it take to keep 3000 soldiers fat and happy who are never going to treat a single ebola. How many soldiers does it take to put up a cheap tent and call it a hospital?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-59636145088642067272014-11-30T17:27:34.356-08:002014-11-30T17:27:34.356-08:00Sorry about a mistake above, 6800 cases and 1800 d...Sorry about a mistake above, 6800 cases and 1800 deaths are from Sierra Leone and not Liberia. Both countries report unlikely numbers, but the specific numbers I mentioned were attributed to Sierra Leone.

That death will not be recorded and the eventual fate of that individual remains unknown. However, WHO records a confirmed case and doesn't record a death. When there was a study done on patients who remained inside the treatment center, the fatality rate was about 70%. People under 25 died about 50% of the time and people over 45 died around 90% of the time. This is a far cry from the reported 1800 deaths among 6800 cases from Liberia giving a rosy fatality rate of only 26%. <br /><br />There is no meaningful follow up of those individuals who are seen in their treatment centers. On the other hand, it may be that there are many times more people who are infected with Ebola in these countries and only suffer such mild symptoms that they never show up at a center and are never tested for Ebola. If this is true then maybe the 1800 deaths that are recorded in the latest WHO report are the eventual outcome of 18000 infected individuals and then the real rate of dying from Ebola is substantially lower than what is currently thought it is.<br /><br />It is curios why in America, we have had such success in our few infected people surviving. I don't know if the 2 nurses from Texas received the experimental drug such as ZMapp, or if they were only observed, or if they were simply lucky. Two cases does not make much of a study.<br /><br />Perhaps someone reading your blog will know and share the information about the sort of treatment Americans with Ebola received. I think the 1st 2 people treated here, received ZMapp, but I don't know any details about those 2 nurses or the "doc" in NYC.<br />Ex-Dissidenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03837109472357860889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-91453357746088239772014-11-29T13:26:18.801-08:002014-11-29T13:26:18.801-08:00Since Liberia just raised their death total by 38%...Since Liberia just raised their death total by 38% over the figures they have been putting out and these are supposed to deaths which occurred at some past time then it should be fair to raise every figure in their data by 38% to account (somewhat) for the undercount over time.<br /><br />And understand why their Supreme Court has <a href="http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/ebola-virus-outbreak/liberias-supreme-court-suspends-election-campaign-over-ebola-n257966" rel="nofollow">suspended </a>the upcoming election. geoffbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13938430350029694575noreply@blogger.com
