And me looking for a short-term reversal.

Either I'm right and the scribes are just reflecting their (grantedly pretty sophisticated) readership or we are all going to die via an agonizing bio-weaponized ebola induced horror.


If it's the latter keep an eye peeled for (via the NYT):

Symptoms
During the incubation period, which can last about 1 week, symptoms include:

• Arthritis
• Backache (low-back pain)
• Chills
• Diarrhea
• Fatigue
• Fever
• Headache
• Malaise
• Nausea
• Sore throat
• Vomiting

Late symptoms include:

• Bleeding from eyes, ears, and nose
• Bleeding from the mouth and rectum (gastrointestinal bleeding)
• Depression
• Eye inflammation (conjunctivitis)
• Genital swelling (labia and scrotum)
• Increased feeling of pain in skin
• Rash over the entire body that often contains blood (hemorrhagic)
• Roof of mouth looks red
• Seizures, coma, delirium

As many as 90% of patients die from the disease. Patients usually die from shock rather than from blood loss.

I suppose if you are bleeding from every orfice the depression is understandable.
