I've read that story and it's so sad. I can only echo what the writer has said: "May God save our country and those countries affected!!!!"

In the meantime;

The Canadian government has begun providing its experimental drug VSV-EBOV to the World Health Organization.

WHO Considering Use of Canadian Ebola Vaccine in West Africa

Anti-Ebola vaccine and drugs arrive

Quote:
...Canada is sending about 800 to 1000 doses of an experimental vaccine known as VSV-EBOV to West Africa to help the World Health Organisation to fight the Ebola epidemic. The vaccines would be distributed through the WHO in West Africa, to Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Liberia and Guinea. The VSV-EBOV vaccine was developed at Canada’s national microbiology laboratory in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Liberians are generally very vocal and up front people! they should really loud but their problem is just one - they are quite ignorant and their shouting makes it worse as it exposes that ignorance. West Point is like the lowest place a human being can live on earth... it's a slum's slum! poverty like none seen before it lies next to what looks like a pleasant beach but.... it's just one huge open toilet! West Point is depressing to just look at and I do have a Kenyan friend working in there trying to provide sanitation (think about providing toilets to kibich located at a beach - pit latrines won't hack it!). But people living in west point are the poorest in a poor country like Liberia - you can place them on your scale of poverty.... really really poor and consequently ignorant people.
