Last week we were all going to die, this week there is no news.

Funny thing now that the election is over no one is paying attention to this?
 
Yeah, funny how that works. Bastards.
 
Except Ebola talk slowed way down well before the elections.

May have had something to do with the fact there were no new cases.

That that Nigeria!
 
Funny how it in all the top news feeds from four days ago (with Nurse Kaci Hickox), but maybe Alzheimers has set in.

Because even though the elections are over, the media is going to spend its energy on theorizing for weeks on what the "GOP wave" signifies, escorted by a variety of assuming and speculating predictions. Eventually, the Ebola topic will be revived when every possible theorizing has been exhausted. And the usual audiences glued daily to their US news networks will start being bored.

Further when it comes to the Ebola topic in the US, nothing worthy of the usual sensationalist frenzy from the media has happened. There has not been more Ebola contaminated US health care workers. No signs of members of the general public having come in contact with Ebola infected patients or suspected to be potentially infected due to exposure, being now diagnosed Ebola positive. IOW all the "looming doom" predictions we saw via the social media have not materialized.

However for some of us who intend to keep up with the most recent findings on improved therapies and supportive care,

and that because we are well aware that the epidemic itself needs to be addressed in the geographical locations where it has so dramatically developed in order to come close to containment preventing a pandemic of global proportion.
 
Glad you are on top of it. Like CNN.

Apparently Cuba is spending a lot of resources there.
