A young man lies dead in the streets of
Liberia, left to rot
in view of passers-by and local children.
He is just one of many Ebola victims to have
been dragged
out of their homes and dumped on the
country's roads by
terrified relatives in a desperate bid to
avoid being
quarantined.
The deadly virus, which can cause victims to
suffer from
severe bruising and bleeding from the eyes
and mouth, has
claimed the lives of nearly 900 people
across West Africa so
far.
Last week, the Liberian government
announced a raft of
tough measures to contain the disease,
including shutting
schools, imposing quarantines on victim's
homes and
tracking their friends and relatives.
Today, Information Minister, Lewis Brown,
said locals had
started dragging their loved ones' bodies
onto the streets
out of fear that the new government
regulations would risk
their own health.
'They are therefore removing the bodies
from their homes
and are putting them out in the street,' Mr
Brown told
Reuters.
