  • Ebola Scare: Healthcare Workers to Leave Africa
    Ebola scare: Healthcare workers to leave Africa 31 July 2014 | News | By BioSpectrum Bureau Singapore: With large number of healthcare workers falling prey to the flesh-eating virus, several organizations from global countries are pulling out their workers from the affected West African regions. Ebola is out-of-control in West Africa and has gripped the world in fear of the deadliest outbreak recorded in history. "This is a major epidemic," said Mr Ken Isaacs, vice president of Samaritan's Purse, a US-based medical charity. "People are not giving it the credibility that it deserves," he said. The US Peace Corps said that it was temporarily removing 340 volunteers working in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea after its American staff contracted the deadly virus. Another US citizen and a top doctor from Sierra Leone have died. As Ebola spreads it attack on health staff treating infected patients, global mandates are now fearing to extend help and cure. This underscores the gravity of the evolving crisis in a poor corner of West Africa where government authorities and international health workers have struggled to bring the deadly outbreak under control. Mr Bruce Johnson, president of SIM USA, a Charlotte, NC, missionary group, one of the groups helping Ebola patients in Liberia, said that though non-essential workers will be removed, staff needed to run its Ebola treatment centers will stay. He added that few centers have stopped admitting new patients due to increased spread of the virus. He added that instability and insecurity in African villages add to the misery of Ebola as "healthcare workers do not feel safe." Another organization, Samaritan's Purse said that it was curtailing its operations in Liberia, due to increased threat from locals.

  • U.S. and International Health Responses to the Ebola Outbreak in West Africa
    U.S. and International Health Responses to the Ebola Outbreak in West Africa Tiaji Salaam-Blyther Specialist in Global Health October 29, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R43697 U.S. and International Health Responses to the Ebola Outbreak in West Africa Summary In March 2014, an Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak was reported in Guinea, West Africa. The outbreak is the first in West Africa and has caused an unprecedented number of cases and deaths. The outbreak is continuing to spread in Guinea, Sierra Leone, and Liberia (the “affected countries”); it has been contained in Nigeria and Senegal, and has been detected in Mali. As of October 22, 2014, more than 10,000 people have contracted EVD, more than half of whom have died. Until October 2014, no secondary EVD cases had occurred outside of Africa. That month, health workers in Spain and the United States contracted EVD cases while providing care for Ebola patients. Other factors make this outbreak unique, including • its introduction into West Africa; • multi-country outbreaks occurring simultaneously; • disease transmission within urban areas; and • an unprecedented scale and pace of transmission. In the aggregate, between 1976, when Ebola was first identified, through 2012, there were 2,387 cases, including 1,590 deaths, all in Central and East Africa. The number of Ebola cases in this outbreak is four times higher than the combined total of all prior outbreaks, and the number of cases is doubling monthly. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) have projected an exponential increase in cases.
