"Ebola is great examples of how poorly this administration is handling the affairs of this nation" Ebola is an example of how well the US is handling it, and how poorly uninsured Texas is. Nobody has died from Ebola in the US. 1 person died in Texas. This is what happens when we "invade" countries to set up field hospitals. Is Ebola Outbreak Entering New Phase? by Bahar Gholipour, Staff Writer \| November 03, 2014 06:02pm ET livescience.com excerpt: The reports of declining rates of new Ebola cases in Liberia, announced by the World Health Organization on Oct. 29, fueled hopes that the outbreak response is working, but experts are cautioning that it is too soon to believe West Africa have entered a new phase of the epidemic. Liberia is one of the worst affected countries by the Ebola outbreak, with more than 6,500 cases and 2,413 deaths reported in that country alone as of Oct. 31. In addition to the perhaps positive news out of Liberia, WHO officials are saying that the total number of new cases in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea may also be leveling off, with some officials telling the BBC News that they now expect the rate of new cases will be steady, at around 1,000 weekly cases total in all three countries. This is a contrast to the increasing pace seen earlier weeks, when the number of new cases was growing exponentially. [2014 Ebola Outbreak: Full Coverage of the Viral Epidemic] [...] The positive trend in Liberia is partly due to people there practicing safe burial of patients who die of Ebola, said Dr. Bruce Aylward, the WHO assistant director-general last week. The bodies of Ebola victims remain highly infectious after death, and have been a significant route of spread during this outbreak.
