Sierra Leone 9/27 New Cases Still Increasing:

[franzpick]

Sierra Leone new cases for 9/27 appear to be up 80/day deduced from data at INTERNATIONAL-SOS, although 'non-case' numbers are unclear:

CASES:
Total: 2208 clinical cases as at 27 September
Confirmed: 2,000 | Probable: 37 | Suspected: 171
Deaths: 566 (518 confirmed)

This continued S. Leone daily new case increase brings the estimated 3-country daily new cases for 9/27 up to 190/day from only 80/day 10 days ago, and the 5 and 10 day moving averages up to 162/day from 100/day and 138/day from 120/day 10 days ago, but new case numbers due out today for Guinea and Liberia will give more reliable trend indications:

Re: Sierra Leone 9/27 New Cases Still Increasing:

Guinea has also released numbers this morning for a new case total increase of 69 over 5 days from 9/24 to 9/28, averaging 14 added cases per day, which is exactly in line with 5 and 10 day moving averages over the last week, so no significant change is indicated in the Guinea daily infection rate, but news reports suggest to me that new case additions may be understated in all 3 countries:
