Ebola Outbreak 2014: West Africa Needs 5,000 More Health Workers To Fight Virus: Report

West Africa needs more than 5,000 additional health care workers if the Ebola outbreak is to be controlled, the president of the World Bank, Jim Yong Kim, said Tuesday. Officials said they were concerned that fear of the virus could keep health workers in Africa away from the countries most affected by Ebola, and that mandatory quarantines in the U.S. for returning nurses and doctors could deter American health workers from going abroad to fight the virus.
