More or less on cue, WHO updated numbers as of 5 Oct 2014: 8033 cases and 3879 deaths.
Spike in reported cases/deaths - both in absolute and average.
Trendline using prior ^3 polynomial predicts <12k by the end of the month, which would represent a slowdown.
Interestingly, now, a ^4 polynomial curve better fits the existing data points, and would show a diminishing rate of increase by the end of the month.
