Despite WHO's Confidence, Mali Becomes 6th West African Nation With Ebola
In yet another blow for the doctors fighting the spread of this deadly disease, AP reports, Mali's health minister says the West African country has confirmed its first case of Ebola. Despite every effort to close borders, quarantine areas, and now send US troops (to do... well we are not sure really), Mali becomes the sixth West African country to report an Ebola case.
Mauvaise Nouvelle EBOLA:
Le Mali vient d'enregistrer son premier cas positif. Il s'agit d'une fillette de 2 ans( Ministère de la santé)

Mali's health minister says the West African country has confirmed its first case of Ebola.
The announcement made on Malian state television Thursday evening by Ousmane Kone said that the patient was a 2-year-old girl who had come from neighboring Guinea.
The child was brought to a hospital in the Malian town of Kayes on Wednesday, and her blood sample tested positive for the virus.
Mali becomes the sixth West African country to report an Ebola case — though nearly all the cases and deaths have occurred in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.
Senegal and Nigeria had imported cases though both have now been declared Ebola-free.
The World Health Organization says the disease has killed at least 4,877 people and infected 9,936.

Sadly this comes just hours after WHO said the following:
The World Health Organization said on Thursday it was still trying to slow the rate of new infections but had "reasonable confidence" that the Ebola virus plaguing three West African ountries had not spread into neighbouring states.
Asked whether countries such as Guinea Bissau, Mali and Ivory Coast might have cases of the disease crossing their borders without knowing about or reporting them, WHO assistant director general Keiji Fukuda said he considered that unlikely.
"I think that there is reasonable confidence right now that we are not seeing widespread transmission of Ebola into the neighbouring countries," Fukuda told a news briefing in Geneva.

How Precious.
p.s. There's Gold there.
Nope. The French and US "safeguarded" the gold reserves last year? Hard to keep up with in scooping.
There's never only one roach.
Why is the Traitor in Chief doing this? I have Lefty friends who never quite figured out I'm not one of them. It's really simple.
Barry and his ahem, advisers, are afraid that if we close the borders, for any reason, people will like the effects. They will feel safer, wages will rise, housing, especially rents, will fall, and they will never get them open to illegals again.
Flooding the country with illegals is Barry's top priority, to replace Whitey with the great unwashed, and bring about CHANGE, to the sort of thing you see in Mexico, or the DC Public Schools.
If you think he couldn't be that evil, you haven't been paying attention.
Say hello to 100,000 fresh, visaless Haitians! Oh yeah, and do you know anybody who can print up nine million greencards a year for the next four years?
Containment is spreading.

But now BO's bringing you CHANGE YOU CAN BEREAVE IN...
Just a matter of days until PMSNBC and the rest declare 'containment is going viral'...
GW's article is important, this ebola strain was weaponized by the CDC/Tulane University. that bar graph comparing all the known outbreaks tells the story.
when the first bombs dropped everyone wondered who launched first.
24 hours later, no one cared.
GW is the mother of all conspiracy theory promulgators. Imagine if you were GW and you actually believed all that shit?
The gold is less relevant (unless the supply comes off line), as there are already Frogs and Transgendered Navy Squeels all over the place planting little flags and securing NATO interests.
However, there is plenty Al-CIAda in Mali (among other flavors), so Dempsey & the Congress Critters just got a huge early Christmas present of Fear-Mongering-Fodder.
This is a great case study. Lots and lots of valuable data on transmission speed and routes being generated for finetuning real use of that or similar stuff. Those senseless aid workers seem to be a very important part of the puzzle.
my roomate's ex-wife makes $83 an hour on the internet . She has been unemployed for 7 months but last month her check was $20054 just working on the internet for a few hours. visit the site... yelptrade.com
......does her gig involve a bangalore monkey a cat and a burlap sack by chance...... I subscribed to that service last month...... yeah its worth a look //s
My brother's roommate's uncle's best friend makes $83 an hour surfing for porn on the web.
He works for the Federal Government.
Now I can believe that, but the pay seems low for government work...
It doesn't include benefits like a fully funded noncontributory 100% pay at age 55.
They have a virtual war here in my state raising teacher retirement to age 60.
Hey where's the link?!
Getting your tonsils glazed by complete strangers is no way to for your room mate's ex-wife to make a living.
She could get Ebola from that......
OK, asshole. Don't cross the street in front of any ZH readers. Just checked out your link, researched it. This is what I found: The Home Income Profit System (recently renamed The Home Income Wealth System) is a now notorious internet scheme that claims to help you make money from home. Their make money kit is often promoted through the use of fake newspaper articles and other unscrupulous means.
You may have seen “news articles” talking about a Kelly Richards (who incidentally lives in your area) and how much money she made working online. If you look at the article more carefully you’ll see that it’s nothing but a farce, closely resembling what real news sites commonly look like.
It comes as no surprise to me that Home Income Wealth System is almost a direct copy of previous make money online scams called Home Income Profit System, Home Income Black, and BlackBelt Profit System among others. This sort of tactic is often used by experienced online scammers…
When the customer complaints start piling up they simply give it a new name, move some graphics around, and start over fresh. This process goes on and on while they continue to generate hundreds of thousands of dollars from unsuspecting customers.
Damn it! It sounded so good. We gave him our SS#, Visa, mothers maiden name, keys to the Swiss chalet. Everything's going to be OK, right? RIGHT???
Wow, you put all that effort into researching this and reporting on it for the benefit of ZHers. That is truly admirable.
Could you maybe look into how much money Amazon is going to lose next quarter? That would be information I could use, but I'm too lazy to try to figure it out.
So, when you have the info, could you post it prominently? Or maybe send me a private email.
Tell your roommate's ex-wife to try some of the larger city hotel bars...she can do better than that.
another ebola ........ will wonders never cease??
US troops are there to help with the disbursement of Mali's natural resources. I don't even know if Mali has any valuable resources and neither does the U.S. government. They'll send the troops just in case.
They're there to either build MASH units, or
to assist when the enforced vaccinations begin.
Not sure Ebola virus qualifies as a natural resource. I guess it just depends on how you use it.
Oh well isn't that just dandy? Right in line with the ebolahedge agenda, pushing out one garbage article after another for the tinfoil's delight/terror and normal people's amusement.
And here you are, the taint of zh.
I just like to point out how silly you people really are. Sorry if it bothers you.
And just wait until Tyler's finally realize how much they are over-hyping the entire situation, I'll only get louder.
Exponentially increasing hemorrhagic fever outbreaks are just nothing to worry about, right? Do have any background in epidemiology or virology - or are you just a self-proclaimed expert?
He has a Masters degree in assholatry.
Hey, End Times, Fuck You.
Isn't there an old saying: Don't feed the trolls!
Do have any background in epidemiology or virology - or are you just a self-proclaimed expert?
But you believe the MSM experts right? Who said printing money will solve all your economic problems and markets are doing great and Gold is backed by nothing but tradition?
Economics is a psudo-science at best (as defined by Popper). The issue is, when confronted by a potentially catastrophic disease, who should I trust - some clown with no credentials on the internet making claims not supported by published data and the opinions of actual experts I know and trust personally, or perhaps somebody who may actually have some basis for presenting knowlege claims with a foundation I can verify independantly.
Yeah, if this fucker really WAS exponential, most of the USA and Europe would be infected by now. But no, that doesn't fit the narrative, see, its AIRBORNE, and MUTATING and OH-EMM-GEE.
Like what the fuck man, any idiot who knows how exponentials work can see that if there's nobody next to you coughing up blood in a month, then it isn't fucking exponential.
Just another rallying point for the fapping-while-the-world-burns crowd. Maybe they needed something to distract themselves from gold's shit performance.
I wish I could upvote you 10 times.
On ZH, you're either a dumb sheeple or a smart one.
Anything with a doubling time is exponential Mr. Math. Here's a formula with a >98% correlation to the increases in cases we're actually seeing as (under) reported by the WHO and CDC: Y= 94.317e^0.0209x
Why don't you tell me what kind of formula you think that is and what kind of curve you get?
I get a curve that puts us at 10k +/- infections at roughly day 225 (last actual data point of 9936 at day 221 ) and over 50k by day 300. By day 600, if the current rate holds, we'd be at over 20 million.

I thought they were vaping while the world burns...
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sir, I'll buy you a round trip ticket for 2 weeks in Monrovia. So you can put your money where your mouth is. My guess is you're all talk.
Obama and his politically Correct people will keep the borders open until it takes hold in the US.
Mexico and other countries will halt flights and close the border once it's prevalent here.
Just consider something...with the incubation period of this thing, there could be a few weeks of fairly quiet news, then suddenly one day there are 1,000 new cases at once, and all over the place.
It is obviously still actively spreading, despite the lack of huge news. But short-attention span America thinks the whole thing is over in a week or two.
It is also detection. Absence of detection does not mean absence of infection.
Africa WILL continue to export cases, and eventually this WILL lead to undetected propagation. That is when it all gets very interesting.
I think Mali needs Obama.
We need to send more military advisors and 20,000 anti-tank rounds made by General Dynamics. We can't afford to let this situation get out of hand!
Yep. And Nigeria is ebola-free. My ass.
Bullshit.
Short: Germany's gold repatriation.
Don't worry ebola as a topic has a long way to go before it ever catches up to whether or not Greece is going to default.
