Healthcare workers from across the UK will join volunteers who flew to Sierra Leone in November.
A further 25 NHS staff from across the UK are deploying to Sierra Leone to join Britain’s fight against Ebola, International Development Secretary Justine Greening announced Saturday.
"More than 600 treatment and safe isolation beds are now operational, thousands of healthcare workers have been trained, and the first of 3 new labs is up and running, significantly boosting the capacity of the country to test blood and swab samples," Greening said.
"None of this would have been possible without the grit and determination of the military personnel, scientists, healthcare and aid workers from across the UK who have traveled to Sierra Leone to defeat this terrible disease," she added.
