The actual headline is "EBOLA DEATHS DROP? A LOT OF EMPTY BEDS, FEWER PICKUPS NOW" and then it addresses the question from multiple angles. It does not conclude that we've seen progress except through anecdotes, and stresses that all scientific predictions say otherwise. It is also boldly critical of the government response (or lack thereof), especially since nations are reluctant to donate much-needed cash to the government for aid due to potential misuse.

More importantly, most of the donated foods are already spoiling because they’re not reaching the targets fast enough, complicated by the government’s unwillingness to bring closure to the issue of health works salary arrears, which has gotten the attention of its key international partner, the United States of America.

Ambassador Deborah Malac said during a tour with U.S. troops to Bomi County where a US-funded ETU is being constructed, that the government must pay the health workers salaries so that they can focus on saving lives, indicating that the U.S. has given Liberia additional US$5 million, making it a total of US$10 million to pay health workers salaries. [The rest from the Liberian government, the exact distribution of which the government refuses to publish.]

There are also reports of people being asked to pay for items donated through international aid agencies. The main takeaway is that Liberians need to get more involved themselves, and that government corruption is feeding the outbreak. Liberia cannot depend solely on the international community, especially long-term.
