Ebola in Sierra Leone 'spreading quickly' - campaign group

BBC                                                   Nov. 2 2014

Ebola cases are continuing to rise "frighteningly quickly" in areas of Sierra Leone, an international campaign group has said.

The Africa Governance Initiative (AGI) found that in rural parts of the country the virus is spreading nine times faster than two months ago.

In Freetown, Sierra Leone's capital, Ebola cases are six times higher than two months ago

In Liberia, however, the rate of new cases appears to have slowed.

AGI's findings come after World Health Organization officials told the BBC the number of new cases is levelling off.

Though Sierra Leone's rural areas have been worst hit, the group says the spread of Ebola is also increasing in the capital Freetown - which is recording six times more cases per day compared to two months ago.
