Ενσωματωμένα permalink εικόνα

Liberia has imposed a night-time curfew and has quarantined 
a slum in the capital Monrovia in a bid to halt the deadly Ebola outbreak....
President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf said the curfew would be from 21:00 
local time to 06:00 (21:00-06:00 GMT).
She said all movement would be blocked in and out of the West Point slum.
Meanwhile, three doctors with Ebola who started taking an experimental drug 
last week showed remarkable signs of improvement, a Liberian minister said.
Information Minister Lewis Brown said the government only received a small 
number of ZMapp doses.
He said the drug was given to one Nigerian and two Liberian doctors who 
had caught Ebola while helping to save the lives of other victims of the virus.  ....
