Guest Chewie Posted October 20, 2014 Interesting behaviour: 2 day lock down so EVERYONE dashes to the shops to stock up. Sit at home for a bit. Declare the country E-free and all gather to have parties. With that amount of extra social mixing the virus should have a great boost ! OMHO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted October 24, 2014 OK, so everyone thinks that the west has marched over the horizon, a bit late but with the best efforts this will be over in a few weeks.... and... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-29755443 Now in Mali. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
En Passant 3,733 Posted October 24, 2014 I woke up this morning in a terrible state, I was covered in lottery tickets. I dashed to the doctor and he said, "Ah, I've been expecting this, the uk's first case of tombola." Can somebody direct me to the coat rack? I'm sure I saw it on the way in. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charon 4,943 Posted December 29, 2014 A returning health worker means there's a case in Glasgow now. Thankfully, having thought about for, ooooh 20 seconds, they are doing the obvious thing and transferring the dame to London Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,620 Posted December 29, 2014 I'm mindful of the time Paul the Postie and his mates struck Deathrace gold by finding the name of a rabies infected woman in Belfast on the website of her local paper and then struck gold by getting her on their team. Then again, I'm guessing this stricken health worker in Glasgow will suffer...before surviving the Ebola. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ebola sucks! Posted January 2, 2015 Latest update I found is 20,000 reported cases. Less that half that have died. I also saw an article that There are about 1200-1400 suspected cases being watched by authorities in the USA. (Yahoo News at the end of 2014). Have not seen anything about Britain's suspected cases yet. There is a predicted number of 40,000 cases by the end of February 2015 (if the Death rate is 50%, then There could be 20,000 dead by then). The number of cases seems to be doubling every 60 days, so You do the math. I would be interest what information others have about this. From Germany and other places. Thanks.

Magere Hein 1,399 Posted January 2, 2015 I would be interest what information others have about this. From Germany and other places. Thanks. Three or four Dutch who were in West Africa were isolated in hospitals in the Netherlands as suspected Ebola cases. None turned out to be infected. One Nigerian ebola aid worker who was infected in Liberia was flown to the Netherlands and treated in a special isolated ward in Utrecht. After two weeks he was declared cured, released and returned to Liberia. regards. Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ebola sucks! Posted January 3, 2015 Thank You Hein! I just read There is someone in Scotland who is pretty bad off. No one here in Norway, that they are reporting anyway. The one last was cured a while back. We live in interesting times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
