UN Held A Meeting On More Supplies Of Equipment To Curtail The Ebola Virus. UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon has urged the international community to respond urgently to the shortage of doctors, nurses and equipment, including protective clothing and isolation tents to help curtail further spread of the Ebola virus. In a statement, he said three steps are essentially urgent to bring an end to the outbreak in West Africa. These include addressing the severe lack of capacity in the most severely affected countries, a coordinated international response and avoiding panic and fear which according to him can go a long way to successfully bring the disease under control. Mr Ban said with resources, knowledge, early action and will, people can survive the disease. Source: GBC
