UN's Newest Fabulism

GENEVA ( Reuters) - Ebola is still spreading quickly in western Sierra Leone and deep in Guinea’s forested region, a senior UN official said on Tuesday.
“We know the outbreak is still flaming strongly in western Sierra Leone and some parts of the interior of Guinea. We can't rest, we still have to push on,” Nabarro told a news briefing in Geneva.
More foreign health workers are needed to combat the epidemic, especially in Sierra Leone where treatment centres are still opening and need expert staff, said David Nabarro, the UN Secretary General’s special envoy for Ebola.

So to recap from last Monday:
: the WHO hit all their targets for containing the outbreak
: except they didn't, because the numbers are ca-ca
: so the war is over, but they need more soldiers.

Got that?
And the minute our troops leave Liberia, they lose rapid lab turnaround, and even the official infection rate there skyrockets, and they still haven't figured out, in either Sierra Leone or Liberia, how to lure people into the ETUs now that everyone knows they're simply death houses (except for the 11% who survive despite zero medical intervention, just as they would at home). The only thing the ETUs stop is further spread by the infected, and the governments there are so mistrusted, the people would rather take their chances with Ebola than with what passes for government help there.

Word.

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.
May contain peanuts, gluten, partially dehydrogenated vegetable fat, and D and C Dye Number 6.
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 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.
