Marburg: linear growth in number of deaths
A new report from the WHO shows that the number of deaths from Marburg continues to grow linearily, and has done so since the beginning of May. The current rate is 2.58 new deaths per day, with on average 3.79 new cases discovered each day. The minimal fatality rate is at 84%, but the WHO doesn't report how many people have actually recovered from the disease.
