quote:Those numbers are totals for all of 2014. The number of newly identified cases is roughly 900 a week right now and a lot of those are DOA, not people being treated. 30 / day (210 / week) plus the capacity of the new facilities we are building would put a significant dent in those numbers.
Build facilities in Africa and train African doctors to treat this disease. You are sticking your finger in the leaking dam by bringing 30 people a day here.

By September 14, 2014, a total of 4507 probable and confirmed cases, including 2296 deaths from EVD (Zaire species) had been reported from five countries in West Africa — Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria, Senegal, and Sierra Leone. We analyzed a detailed subset of data on 3343 confirmed and 667 probable Ebola cases collected in Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone as of September 14.
Fast forward 1 month and those numbers are double. The CDC thinks there could be 55,000 cases by January. 30 people a day isn't going to do jack.
