In recent times, Ebola has been ravaging most of the West Africa sub-region and the World Health Organ- isation (WHO) says the current Ebola epidemic in West Africa “shows a mixed picture”.
WHO reports that there have been 844 cases, including 518 deaths, in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia as of July 6. The organization’s statement suggests that, the growing number of cases in these countries means that there is still a problem with active viral transmission.
The health ministers of 11 neighbouring nations met in Accra recently to streamline a joint strategy to stem Ebola’s deadly advance.
