WARWICK, England, Sept. 22 (UPI) -- The spreading Ebola outbreak has entered uncharted territory. The virus became the deadliest on record some time ago, but new research suggests it's spreading at an exponential rate -- a worrying sign there is just something "different" about this latest outbreak.
"What the results seem to indicate is that it isn't just an extreme event," Thomas House, a mathematician at England's University of Warwick, told The New Republic last week. "It's becoming more and more likely that there's something different this time."
