Denial In Mali, Not Just A River In Egypt

BAMAKO (Reuters) - Mali said on Monday that another person had tested positive for the Ebola virus, bringing the total number of cases in the West African nation to eight.

The Malian government did not provide further details about the new case and how the person contracted the disease, but it came after another case was confirmed on Saturday.

It said both cases were at an Ebola treatment center.

If you're keeping score at home, it's doubled there three times in 6 weeks. True to form, mostly among health care workers, which their nation doesn't have a plethora of to begin with. And those are just the exposures they think they know about. And their borders are still wide open to Guinea and Liberia, because they're a land-locked nation.

That works both ways, which must be a great comfort to those in the additional 5 countries they border on with no Ebola outbreak - yet.

"Wait, you're coming from WHERE?"

HIPPA

These are works of fiction.
Any similarity to actual persons or circumstances, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
Especially if you suspect I may have had anything, however coincidental and fictional, in making them dead.
If you think you're reading anything about yourself, or someone you know, or someone you read about, you have the right to remain silent.
If you give up the right to remain silent, I reserve the right to consider you a work of fiction.
Void where prohibited by law.

Because a person's a person, no matter what the hippa-potamus says.
So any attempts to annoy, pester, harass, bully, or otherwise vex me about the uncanny similarity you and your delusional psychoses have ascribed to an actual person will result in the deployment of the dreaded "I know you are, but what am I?" gambit, straight out of third grade recess. My 5-year-old neice was 0 for 342 against it, and she was professionally ranked before I broke her, so I'd back off now if I were you.

Comments

Comments are appreciated. They require neither prior ID nor screening for content.
Anonymous abusive or rude comments will be either mocked mercilessly, or simply deleted into the internet ether, solely at the blog owner's discretion. (That would be me.)
If you somehow labor under the misapprehension that free speech applies everywhere, try this experiment: go to your next door neighbor's house, urinate and defecate on his living room floor, and call him a m*****f****** @$$hole, then see whether you receive an award from the ACLU, or an ambulance and police car, who stop momentarily to help collect your teeth.
If you don't get this, you're too stupid to be on the Internet, let alone posting comments on my blog.
Disagreement is one thing, even ignorance can be understandable, but rude @$$holery will not be tolerated here. I have neither the time nor inclination to imbue what a public K-12 failed to instill in those folks bereft of the ability to reason intelligently or behave like well-adapted human beings in polite society.
That's why for you there's a Skid Row.
