A doctor infected with Ebola in Sierra Leone has died.
Dr. Godfrey George tested positive on Sunday and died
Monday overnight.
He is the fifth local doctor in the country to be killed by
the disease.
Doctors and nurses have been particularly vulnerable, as
the virus is spread through body fluids.
Some 523 health workers have contracted Ebola, and
about half of them have died.
On Monday, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
told a press conference in Vienna there shouldn’t be
unnecessary extra restrictions on the movement of health
workers. The comment came as some US states imposed
quarantines on health professionals returning from the three
West African countries hardest hit by Ebola.
