The big event yesterday was WHO's remarkable DON on the likely presence of Ebola in Tanzania—which the Tanzanian government and media still seem to be denying. An example in yesterday's Dar24, in the Google translation, and then a comment:
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) from the United States, have confirmed that there is no outbreak of Ebola.
The confirmation came after the Tanzanian government through the Ministry of Health, allowing them to take samples of patients suspected of having Ebola and after testing they confirmed that they did not have Ebola.

Deputy Minister of Health, Dr Faustine Ndugulile yesterday spoke with US CDC Director Robert Redfield who arrived in the country to look at how the United States could cooperate with Tanzania in controlling the outbreaks.
Redfield said the United States will continue to support Tanzania in its efforts to fight the outbreak of epidemics through 'Global Health Security' with the goal of continuing to work together to protect global health security.
It should be noted that last weekend, the Minister of Health, Ummy Mwalimu denied rumors of the Ebola virus being present in the country and that two patients who were suspected of having the disease tests showed they did not.
I'm going to do a quick survey of some possible sources and post what I find as soon as possible.
