Central africa and this includes the outbreaks that have been reported worldwide and have been garnered. It is actually relatively recently that this has emerged in west. And in fact this actually started around the area and this includes where siberia and liberia intersect. In an embossed the case of a 2yearold boy and this includes moving into sierra leone and liberia. And so nice chain of events, if you will, with transmission moving from very remote areas into urban areas. And that is one of the most notable features of this particular outbreak. And they are found to be over 8000 suspect cases and half are little but more than confirmed. The country that has been most affected by this has been liberia and also significant cases in sierra leone and guinea as you all know. What is most important is that most of these cases have occurred in last three to four weeks and the burden of this particular outbreak is increasing.

First time in the subhuman primates. Today ive been given permission something ive known about for a few weeks when i wrote the piece is concerned me greatly. The colleagues made the national lab and actually took and put them in a little over a month and a half ago but they saw was remarkable. It was unlike the had ever seen. It was much more severe and as gary said its very worrisome to me about what i saw. Maybe this is a different virus. If you have that much maybe somebody might cough it up and you might get a cycle. Im not saying that to scare people. Plan b. , what the hell are we going to do if we see the potential for the transition to quite be respiratory and nature . Do we have a plan . I dont know if it is a one in 1,000 but the point is if we cant talk about that because people say youre scaring people come up, then the blowback has been substantial. I guess im getting old and it doesnt bother me so much anymore because it was all based on what i believe to be true science ....

We do have medical Treatment Facilities and special containment studies unit in bethesda. We will handle cases of occupational exposure from the four teacher campus. Cdc has memory and two years ago i convened a symposium with two colleagues rick davey and lisa hensley bringing the medical directors of those various facilities together to review medical countermeasures that could be possibly prepositioned in those facilities so they would be available on short notice. It was somewhat disturbing at that time that ther ....
At that point right now. But its, everybody wants to know about transmissibility, and part of the reason is that the cdc has been so emphatic about it not being transmissable, yet people are hearing about transmissibility. Two people have it now. So it makes it like like look like the cdc is not being forth coming. It, clearly, seems to be a tough disease to understand in terms of how it transmits to people. And so far, again, its just two Health Care Workers who had real contact with patient and not, you know, anyone else in the general public. If it stays that way, i think confidence in the cdc will increase. But if not, i think friedens got a problem on his hands. Host no matter what the result of the midterms, theres a lot congress has to handle when they come back from the break. Whats the likelihood that ebola gets to the top of the line to do . Guest it will if more happens about people are catching this more frequentl ....
