Cases of Ebola on the rise in Guinea and Sierra Leone

Have you seen the movie “Contagion”?  This is a serious situation and the latest data from the WHO says it’s getting worse.  I hope this doesn’t go global. With the mortality rate of this disease, Ebola could kill half of the population.

 

At least 21 people died and 37 new cases of suspected Ebola were recorded in Guinea between May 29 and June 1, the World Health Organization said on Wednesday, undermining the government’s claims that the number of Ebola deaths was slowing.

The new figures take to 328 the number of cases linked to the disease in Guinea, of which 193 have been confirmed by laboratory tests.

In total, 208 deaths have been linked to Ebola, making the outbreak one of the deadliest for years.
