This may be one of those things we should just be damned grateful for, instead of snarking. Ebola is a ridiculously scary prospect - one mutation to a more airborne (not blood-borne) variant, and humanity can kiss about 80-90% of itself goodbye. Not something to take lightly.

dbirchall: FTFA: He said there had been 19 confirmed and probable deaths during the outbreak.

Uh... probable deaths? I had no idea Schrödinger's cat was Ugandan. But I hope they'll let us know when they figure out whether people are dead or not.

/Wife and 7-month-old landed are there right now.


Some of the "patients" escaped the hospital.

Bonanza Jellybean: They still don't know what its natural reservoir is, right? Monkeys or bats, maybe? It'll be back again someday.

They think it's a fruit bat. No direct evidence, but fruit bat populations seem to spike just about or before the times Ebola hits the human population.

Headline seems rather optimistic for the text of the article.
