Lower, no idea if it would be significantly lower. Treatment efficacy is most likely directly related to how soon you get treatment. The protocol is probably the same - these doctors going overseas to help aren't using salt and vinegar, they're taking the same antibiotics with them and IV's that you'd get here. They don't go over empty-handed to treat the sick.
The one exception I'm aware of is using blood/antibodies from that one doctor who had recovered to treat the nurse. That's likely an extraordinary treatment you or I wouldn't have gotten, and appears to have been experimental and no idea if it helped or not.
