The Ebola death toll has now risen to 5,160, according to the WHO.
 
There are some signs that the rate of new infections may be slowing overall in Guinea and Liberia, but there are still places in those countries where transmission remains high, and they are surging in Sierra Leone, the health agency said on Wednesday.
 
While the response to Ebola is ramping up, it is still insufficient: In Sierra Leone. for instance, less than 40 percent of cases are in isolation, according to WHO estimates
 
And Ebola has come to Mali. Four deaths todate.
 
On Tuesday, I was in Lorong Utara B in Petaling Jaya to attend the Taman Indrahana Toastmasters meeting. I was the Ah Counter.
 
Generally-speaking, it was a good meeting although we started three minutes late. Strangely, the Timekeeper maintained that we did start on time. Never mind, as far as I am concerned I was right – therefore, I am giving this meeting a score of a 4.5 over 10.
