Residents of West Point receive rice, beans and cooking oil. They are forbidden from leaving the seaside slum, due to the Ebola outbreak in their community.
Suspected Ebola sufferer Finda 'Zanabo' prays over her sick family members before being admitted to the Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Ebola treatment centre. She and her family left an Ebola isolation centre in the West Point slum when it was overrun by a mob on 16 August. Her nephew Saah Exco, 10, died on Wednesday, after being taken to the JFK Ebola ward in Monrovia.

(34,490 posts)And the recent photographer that was just diagnosed with Ebola who will be flown back has said he's seen some terrible things and explained how we, here in the US, take medical care for granted. I really hate to see people suffering when they're sick ESPECIALLY the children. So sick that all they can do is lay on the floor. Pitiful.
