The total number of probable, confirmed and suspected cases of Ebola in Sierra Leone, Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and now Senegal was 6,263 with 2,917 deaths, as of September 21, according to the World Health Organization. The number of deaths linked to Ebola in West Africa continues to rise and is spreading at an unprecedented rate. The Center for Disease Control estimates that the number of Ebola cases in Liberia and Sierra Leone could rise to between 550,000 and 1.4 million by January without further intervention.
This is a world-wide emergency that requires a world-wide response.
