Is the government of Liberia using or applying any quantitative analysis to the Ebola virus? Have they developed a model that will at least estimate the potential impact of this model? Is there an epidemiology model that we can use or that has been used somewhere before that can provide guidance on the potential impact of this virus given our healthcare infrastructure, our population congestion in certain places, our dispersion outside of the main concentrated areas, our inability to reach all these areas or provide care there, our available resources, the potential help resources we can get, etc. etc? I know there are couple of models, the Suscpetible Infected Susceptible (SIS) model, the Susceptible Infected Removed (SIR) model, the Suscpetible Exposed Infected Susceptible (SEIS) model, etc. Is Ebola a virus that you only get one time are are you susceptible to getting it again after your initial recovery from infection? Is there a representative from MoHSW that can come and have an intelligent conversation with us about this Ebola virus? Just wondering!
