However anyone chooses to interpret it, depending on which political party you support. The PDP lapdogs will see nothing wrong with it, while the APC e- rats will see everything wrong with it.

arvinsloane: Such a terrible scenario.

Indeed!

Matthew Lincoln died last night. He was one of two patients to die at the Bong County Ebola Treatment Unit on Saturday.

When Lincoln died, I was embedded with a group of aid workers tracking down Ebola patients. We were on our way to the center with his 23-year-old wife, Garmai and their 11-month-old son, Freeman, both of whom are believed to be infected with Ebola. We picked up Garmai and Freeman in the small village of Mahwa, but instead of traveling directly to the clinic, we detoured to pick up another suspected Ebola patient. A four-hour trip stretched to six, and by the time we reached our destination, Matthew was dead.

There was no chance for his wife to say goodbye.

Bong County Ebola Treatment Unit is run by the International Medical Corps. It was built by Save the Children and is funded by USAID. It sits on top of a forested hill a couple miles from the main road on property that used to be a leper colony, according to a large sign that hangs by the road.

Eventually the facility will house 52 Ebola patients, but it opened just 13 days ago as part of the increased American support coming into Liberia to fight the outbreak. Now, it can only handle 22 patients.

Taking care of Ebola patients requires meticulous attention to detail; one small mistake and a health care worker can become infected. As a result, new centers scale up slowly, working out there systems with a small number of patients at first.


This morning, we attended Matthew's funeral. No prayers, no remembrances, no loved ones at the grave site. There was just a small procession: the burial team, health care workers, and a small group from USAID.

A narrow trail snaked through the jungle leading from the treatment compound to the burial site. Vines hung down and tangled in our hair and roots tripped our feet as we followed the two yellow-suited members of the burial team carrying Matthew's body in a white body bag on an orange canvas stretcher. We filmed them from the front, walking backwards, slowing their progress with the body.

"Hurry, hurry," they said. "He's getting heavy."

We stepped aside to let them pass and filmed them from behind.

Seven mounds of freshly filled graves stood side-by-side, each with a little white sign bearing the carefully written name of the deceased. Stretching past these filled graves were 19 empty ones. It was a horrifying sight.

In the short time the treatment unit has been open, they've buried seven victims and have two more waiting to go into the ground. There were more empty graves than there were living patients being treated here for Ebola.

"We have to plan ahead," Dr. Pranav Shetty, director of the unit explained, adding that they have a team of nine gravediggers who can dig three graves a day. "It's important that they stay ahead of our needs."

At this rate, within two weeks all these graves will be filled, and they will need to clear a larger area and hire another team of diggers. It's an overwhelming feeling to see such a forecast of death, to know what is coming but to also know that -- with high quality treatment -- it doesn't have to be that way.

I talk to Garmai, the newest widow, through the chicken wire that separates us in the visitors area. A ledge extends out to ensure that we stay a safe distance apart, at least 3 feet. It's the smart thing to do but it makes it difficult to talk about illness, death, and her baby, Freeman.

"I don't feel well. My body is cold," she tells me. "Freeman is not good. He won't eat. He's very weak. They took my blood but not from Freeman."

It is so hard to draw blood from a dehydrated infant. The medical team was trying to decide how best to do this.

Garmai’s blood will be taken to a lab on Monrovia. It will take 2-to-3 days before they know if they have Ebola, but Garmai knows the test is probably just a formality. She and her son shared a bed with Matthew.

I ask Dr. Shetty the question that has been eating at me for weeks: How can it be that all the Americans who get treated in the U.S. survive, and here in Liberia 70 percent die? He explains that they are doing the best they can with what they have.

"All diseases have a better outcome in Western countries,” he says. “Ebola is no different. The key to controlling Ebola is preventing new cases."

What he says is true about prevention being the most critical need, but I'm haunted by the sight of those empty graves waiting to be filled. The job of saving lives is enormous and cannot be ignored. It is far too big to be handled without a massive influx of health care workers. Yet, no country has stepped in and said that this will be their mission: providing lifesaving care to Ebola patients.

How can the world accept such a preordained path to death?

...and your point is?

Wow! I'm impressed, nice development.

Apple's PR nightmare on the issue of warrants for iPhones just keeps getting worse.

On Sept. 18, Tim Cook published an open letter to Apple customers that detailed how secure the company's new mobile operating system, iOS 8, is.

The FBI and local police forces have grown concerned over the level of encryption in Apple devices, as they claim that it's becoming difficult for them to access iPhones even if they have a court-ordered warrant, if the owner refuses to give up their passcode.

Now, the chief of detectives for Chicago's police department has issued an alarming statement on the effects of Apple's heightened encryption.

Speaking to the Washington Post, John J. Escalante said, " Apple will become the phone of choice for the pedophile. The average pedophile at this point is probably thinking, I’ve got to get an Apple phone."

Previously, James Comey, the director of the FBI, said "What concerns me about this is companies marketing something expressly to allow people to place themselves beyond the law."

And before that, Ronald Hosko, the president of the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund and a former assistant director of the FBI's criminal investigative division, worried that people would be killed if police were unable to speedily unlock iPhones to get encrypted information on them.

The key change in iOS 8 is that iMessage texts are encrypted on the iPhone. As long as they're not stored in the unencrypted iCloud backup system, the only way to get them is through the user's passcode. Even a warrant won't unlock them.

Most iPhone users use iCloud, and iMessages are stored in iCloud, so it's not clear just how big a universe of criminals the encryption in iOS 8 would include. And police have access to Elcomsoft products, which are designed to help law enforcement crack password-protected iPhones.

The point being, this is a PR issue rather than a tech issue at the moment: Apple's new stance on privacy and encryption has gone down poorly with law enforcement, but it's not yet clear whether criminals are actually able to take advantage of Apple's products the way they fear.

KTBFFH

I'll rather my children play with the children of Atheist than the children of a religious bigot/fanatic.

Just hoping it's not some kind of cover up for the $9.3million dollars bust in SA.

Having said that, I think we should send the yanks out for real, if they are not sharing intelligent with us and they can not deliver on the Chibok girls and all, what then was their mission to Nigeria. I guess to spy and collect vital security info from us. They should be given an ultimatum to ship out ASAP.

I don't trust the yanks one bit and their hypocrisy stinks to high heaven.

obamaobama: SO UPON ALL HIS MONEY NA ONLY TWO CHILDREN HE BORN

Typical....!!!!

Upon all the money he should have had 50 children. Smh for a bushman like you.

Something sure doesn't add up in all of this, only time will tell.

igbsam: How of all the Pictures........Only 2 are showing. The Rest no dey show.

I was wondering too, i disconnected and reconnect thinking t'was my connection.

Op, re upload the pics.

@topic, Amy Winehouse was my favorite among the lot. I was devastated when i heard of her demise.

Jmain: The excuse given by the man of God is very unreasonable. It defiles simple logic.

Pls tell them...

wesley80: You are entitled to your opinion but stop making it sound like a fact till the details are all out. You have absolutely no basis to assume the building collapsed because of a structural defect.

...so are you, and stop making it sound like a strange aircraft brought the building down until a thorough investigation is carried out by a competent body/committee that can determine why the the building collapsed. C'est tout!

Let's not play the religious card with this tragedy, neither should we believe in any conspiracy theory of "a strange aircraft, I'm of the opinion that the said building was not well reinforced for additional building that was being built on it, reason for the collapse.

I respect MoG, TB Joshua included, but there comes a time when we have to call a spade a spade. C'est fini!

OXYGENO1: Useless thwart from a failed state.You live in a useless country where people die like flies.Pray for your own country and stop thinking about someones' economy.

Incoherent, demon-possesed orangutan called Oxygen.

Stop hyperventilating like someone possessed by a wicked demon.

Ghanaians shouldn't start what they can't finish. Not with their economy on the brink, this should be the least of their worries.

JUHABACH: just because we re at war doesnt mean we should become animals

The only language the terrorist understand is brute force, if in doubt ask the Americans and the Israelis. When it comes to terrorism, all method should be employed, i still stand on that. You don't cajole a terrorist to give you vital info concerning national security, you extract info from them by doing the needful. Americans were able to extract vital info from Khaled Shiek Mohammed ( KSA) after he was water borded.

Now op tell me this is a joke, and a big joke for that matter.

Next story pls!!!

I thought they said all is fair in war. No? We are at war against agent of the devils parading themselves as Muslims, all necessary technique should be used to get the info needed to stop the next suicide bomb.
