Some US scientists have painted a grim picture of the current Ebola outbreak in West Africa as they have reportedly said that it will last for another 12 to 18 months.
Daily
Mail reports that Epidemiologists have been creating computer models of
the Ebola epidemic for the National Institutes of Health and the
Defense Department.
The new figures were derived from this model and it is a far cry from the predictions of the World Health Organization (WHO), which has said a total of 20,000 cases are expected and that it is possible to contain the outbreak within nine months.
This
year’s Ebola outbreak, which the WHO described as the worst ever, has
infected over 4000 people and killed over 2000 of that number in West
Africa.
