EBOLA - Theoretical Rate of Infection 1.92 as per August 12, 2014 [ Updated for 1.795RO ]
Here's an updated calculation. I used the statistical data on the Ebola 2014 Wiki page to refactor the death rate and rate of infection based on actual statistical data.

Average Death Rate: 0.611
Average Rate of Infection: 1.928

Data from Wiki used to recalculate the numbers.
[link to en.wikipedia.org]

Updated November 3rd, 2014 for Octobers RO of 1.795

Keep in mind, the Wiki page I am using even shows the death count now with a greater than equal as we know the actual cases are at least 1/4 of the actual reported numbers and less deaths are being reported.

Updated October 8th, 2014 for Septembers 2.02.

I just want to add that the R0 has dropped, but so have the deaths either we are seeing incorrect data as the death rate is ~70% and too many deaths are going unreported and confirmed at this point, and also likely that the infected may also be under reported.

Update September 19, 2014
Wasn't able to post for a while so sorry about the lack of updates. Here is the latest prediction to compare from above. August ended with an R-naught of 2.574

Added R0 2.672 to catch up to the WHO's worse case scenario projection: Thread: CDC to Announce Ebola: HALF MILLION cases by JANUARY

UPDATE September 22, 2014 for worse case scenario.
Updated to 1.4 million worse case scenarist as per USA Today. R0 3.47, so the RO is growing... that is a concern.

CDC scientists conclude there may be as many as 21,000 reported and unreported cases in just those two countries as soon as the end of this month, according to a draft version of the report obtained by The Associated Press. They also predict that the two countries could have a staggering 550,000 to 1.4 million cases by late January.

Good work OP. I have a feeling that the numbers will be much higher now that the virus is spreading in more mobile, densely populated and more contact-intensive societies. Either way the numbers will be much, much higher than most people are imagining. This really is the 'calm before the storm.'

We are seeing a major spike between June and July's Rate of infection.

I calculated them all based on the Wiki stats for more accuracy.

March - July ROI: 2.404006678
May - June ROI: 1.938511327
April - May ROI: 1.326180258

It is theoretical based on the statistical data that exists, of course things will likely change if this goes pandemic and governments respond hard to infection.

The linear logorithm bases itself on the assumption that the rate of infection remains 1.92 based on the current average since the start of infection.

I don't expect it to reach our entire population base so the numbers although very doomy have less reality to them as this grows. Airtravel will stop, people will change how they interact to prevent infection. Anything that brings down the ROI until burnout is the desired effect of containment and disease control.

Op I am glad that you are better at Stat's than I am. We are just at the front of the bell curve. What do you think the max ROI could be based on that data? We know that these are just reported cases. I believe that the numbers are probably 50 to 100 times greater than what is being reported.

Great threads, I wonder, at what point would the rate of infection decrease dramatically due to large swaths of population being wiped out and great distances between remaining densely populated areas?

Seems the rate would spike in a huge way early on, once it begins to spread in a major metro area and gradually decrease from there?

Just wait until it really takes off in Lagos. 21 million people in a huge slum area. Then you will see a spike.Lagos is still in the very early stages. About another 2 months things should be very interesting over there.
We do not learn from history because our studies are brief and prejudiced. In a surprising manner, 250 years emerges as the average length of national greatness. This average has not varied for 3,000years. The stages of the rise and fall of great nations seem to be:
The Age of Pioneers , The Age of Conquests ,The Age of Commerce ,The Age of Affluence ,The Age of Intellect ,The Age of Decadence.
Decadence is marked by: Defensiveness, Pessimism, Materialism,Frivolity An influx of foreigners The Welfare State A weakening of religion. Decadence is due to: Too long a period of wealth and power, Selfishness Love of money ,The loss of a sense of duty.
The life histories of great states are amazingly similar, and are due to internal factors. Their falls are diverse, because they are largely the result of external causes. - Sir John Glubb The Fate of Empires
We are at the end of the Age of Decadence heading into COLLAPSE

Op I am glad that you are better at Stat's than I am. We are just at the front of the bell curve. What do you think the max ROI could be based on that data? We know that these are just reported cases. I believe that the numbers are probably 50 to 100 times greater than what is being reported.
 Quoting: Sam Fox 76


Well, the American that flew to Lagos Patrick Sawyer infected at least 10 cases that I am aware of, and quite possibly a lot more.

Obviously the rate reflects itself based on how many available human vectors are in the vicinity of an infected person.

The numbers can be quite alarming if this is airborne even at 3 feet. In a dense population base it would spread like a wild fire using humans as the fuel once it hits a critical mass.

I'm hearing about more infections in France, the US, China and waiting to see what is going on in Mexico, Saudi Arabia and many other regions of suspected ebola.

I do expect this to make some large jumps well past a rate of 1.92 or 2.04 if the population density is large enough.

India for example, 1.2 billion people are at risk of rapid infection if it makes it's way into their filthy slums.

We are watching in real time an unprecedented ebola outbreak never witness before in our history. This is a big event and is gaining momentum as per the Jun-Jul spike to 2.404 ROI vs 1.92 that's a big increase.

Great threads, I wonder, at what point would the rate of infection decrease dramatically due to large swaths of population being wiped out and great distances between remaining densely populated areas?

Seems the rate would spike in a huge way early on, once it begins to spread in a major metro area and gradually decrease from there?
 Quoting: Ag47


I agree with you, it will have some periods of critical mass infecting massive numbers in dense populations if not contained.

We can only wait and see and update the statistics and predictions based on reported data. If we speculate these numbers we are seeing right now could be 1.75 times larger as they are saying only 25% of the actual cases are known.

 Quoting: YouAreDreaming


It can be explosive in dense populations like you say... this is the early stages and the above predictions are statistical only thus no doubt if at this current rate we will start seeing some big numbers in a couple of months.

I expect in many large centers of the world as well, it's not Africa's problem anymore.

This ebola outbreak rings of global doom... never seen anything like this with this type of a disease. Scary to know that it can now strike anyone, anywhere in the world.

Maybe you get some money handled by an infected person, or sit on a plane or bus and pick it up.

It's really eerie because it's moving rapidly without restrictions now that it breached into airports and cities.

Yes, ever since Patrick Sawyer flew to Lagos... pandora's box has been opened.

At least with statistical data we can make predictions and adjust the predictions accordingly with real-world data, if we are being lied to, covered up.. the numbers can be far greater which itself is a nightmare scenario.

A virulent strain of ariborne ebola like we are suspecting with this one, quite possibly a deliberately released bioweapon is what used to be the works of horror fiction and is now becoming a reality.

Unlike a movie, you are the active player in this unfolding drama.

You need to adjust your data for the ebbs and flows of the disease once it passes "breakout" (not there yet
The linked chart indicates that for the Spanish Flue deaths came in a clear 3 wave cycle of 18 weeks peak to peak.

For the Spanish Flu the incubation period is reported to have been 2 to 7 days, with a skew to the longer side. In this Ebola event the incubation period is reported to be 7 to 21 days, with a skew to the longer side.

Because of the longer incubation period one should lengthen the data from the Spanish Flu somewhere in the range of 2x to 4x, with 3x being the idealized lengthening (imo).

Based upon a 3x lengthening of the data from the Spanish Flu that would indicate 54 weeks peak to peak for the 3 peak cycle of deaths ... and about 5 to 6 years from when it begins to run until it is over with.

When "breakout" occurs the disease may well go above the infection RO rate that is indicated at the moment by it's STEADY expansion, (and then will decline somewhat before it begins it's next ramp up).

You need to adjust your data for the ebbs and flows of the disease once it passes "breakout" (not there yet
The linked chart indicates that for the Spanish Flue deaths came in a clear 3 wave cycle of 18 weeks peak to peak.

For the Spanish Flu the incubation period is reported to have been 2 to 7 days, with a skew to the longer side. In this Ebola event the incubation period is reported to be 7 to 21 days, with a skew to the longer side.

Because of the longer incubation period one should lengthen the data from the Spanish Flu somewhere in the range of 2x to 4x, with 3x being the idealized lengthening (imo).

Based upon a 3x lengthening of the data from the Spanish Flu that would indicate 54 weeks peak to peak for the 3 peak cycle of deaths ... and about 5 to 6 years from when it begins to run until it is over with.

When "breakout" occurs the disease may well go above the infection RO rate that is indicated at the moment by it's STEADY expansion, (and then will decline somewhat before it begins it's next ramp up).

You are right, I was trying to find a population database by city but couldn't find one. What I want to do is factor in the number of flights per day, the probability of spread and see if I can get some probabilistic statistics based on what we know of Patrick Sawyer's numbers that were infected after he landed in Lagos.

There will be peaks and die offs as it ebbs and flows, some of the peaks could be explosive numbers too.

The 21 day incubation period and lack of treatment/cure makes this one hell of a risk to humanity. If it's not controlled or contained it could be a real long term problem that won't go away as easily as it has in the past.

If this really happens we all need to be ready. Everyone should go get 2 gallons of bleach and 100 lbs of rice.

It's the middle of August and we already have at least 1000 dead.

So is this the reason for all those FEMA coffins?
