World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

Several West African airlines have stopped flying to Liberia and Sierra Leone due to growing concerns about the spread of the deadly Ebola virus. The World Health organisation says this is the deadliest outbreak of Ebola to date. The disease kills up to 90% of people it infects, but patients have a better chance of survival if they receive early treatment. Photo: AP
