Ebola: Is it Already Here ?<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

Ebola is rarely in the news these days. What we should be asking is why it isn\u2019t in the news. It hasn\u2019t gone away, in fact, cases are actually on the increase.\u00a0The World Health Organisation<\/a>\u00a0states:<\/p>\n

The steep decline in case incidence nationally in Sierra Leone from December until the end of January has halted. Transmission remains widespread, with 8 districts reporting new confirmed cases. A significant proportion of cases are still arising from unknown chains of transmission.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The report covers the 7days up to the 22nd February and was published on March 4th. The\u00a0CDC<\/a>\u00a0lists almost 24,000 cases and almost 10,000 deaths and both organisations accept that many of the cases have an unknown outcome, that is, they have no idea if the victims lived or died which could mean the death rate from the outbreak is far higher than the official figures suggest.<\/p>\n

So why is this not in the news? Have mainstream media outlets been \u2018advised\u2019 to reel in their coverage?<\/p>\n

I worked for many years in the National Health service here in the UK, and I have been told, several times, by several people that are still working in the NHS that Ebola cases are currently being treated in UK and US hospitals, and that this has been the case in the US since the death of Thomas Duncan in October of last year. The first UK case arrived \u00a0a short time later and the patient died. William Pooley, the public face of Ebola in the UK was apparently not the first case as stated but was the first survivor and he also returned to West Africa, which made him the ideal poster boy for the \u2018we cured Ebola\u2019 brigade.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t verify that hospitals in the UK\u00a0and the USA, and in a single instance Australia are reporting Ebola cases as malaria cases to avoid a pubic scrutiny in their handling of Ebola cases. The Australian case was listed as Dengue fever according to these sources.<\/p>\n
