It's Slowing?
The World Health Organization (WHO) reported from its Geneva headquarters today that “we are seeing slowing rate of new [Ebola] cases, very definitely” in Liberia.
However, the timing of the WHO’s announcement seems suspect, exactly one week before elections and before justifying statistics were officially posted on the WHO website; quite consistent for the Geneva based organization: “GENEVA — At the U.N. agency spearheading the fight against swine flu [the WHO], key decisions are based on more than just health issues — politics plays a big role, too…. measures such as travel bans, border closures, and raising alert levels can meet stiff political opposition” (Associated Press, 5/3/2009)
Also, WHO’s self-edifying statistics based on low patient count and empty beds at Liberian Ebola treatment centers are "intentionally deceptive," e.g., “MONROVIA, Liberia — Even as Liberians fall ill and die of Ebola, more than half the beds in treatment centers in the capital remain empty, an unintended consequence of the government’s order that the bodies of all suspected Ebola victims in Monrovia be cremated” (Associated Press 10/23/14).
