Random Analytics: Ebola in Liberia (to 5 Oct 2014)
by Shane Granger
The Liberian Ministry of Health and Social Welfare has released its latest numbers with their data confirmed to 5 October 2014.
The Ebola in Liberia infographic charts the spread of the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) by county. Each figure represents 10 lives. Note: The cases versus deaths in Maryland County are not a typo with the Ministry recording 8-cases and 9-deaths.
According to the latest data from Liberia a further 28-cases were recorded in the 24-hours from 4 to 5 October 2014. By county the new cases were reported in:
- Grand Cape Mount (x1)
- Lofa (x3)
- Margibi (x11)
- Montserrado (x13)
At the same time another 21-fatalities were recorded. New fatalities by county were reported in:
- Grand Cape Mount (x1)
- Margibi (x4)
