Comment: According to latest numbers, more than 5800 people have been infected in West Africa. That is not to say there aren't multiple times that number in populations that haven't yet displayed symptoms. A recent culling of 100 exposed persons in Monrovia, Liberia, resulted in nearly 50% testing positive while the remainder are being held for observation. WHO warns we will soon face thousands of new cases.
Reason would have it that the protective gear worn by the male nurse either did not rupture, thereby insulating the victim from the virus...or...the gear is not as good as it is made out to be. Many uninfected countries now have Ebola workers under observation and the potential for new pockets of hemorrhagic fever to latch onto greater populations. Additionally, WHO has stated that there should be no travel bans to countries impacted by the outbreak. "Flight cancellations and other travel restrictions continue to isolate affected countries, resulting in detrimental economic consequences, and hinder relief and response efforts risking further international spread." "The Committee strongly reiterated that there should be no general ban on international travel or trade..." Does this sound like containment? What is the real plan here?
