American officials are shutting down a
special treatment unit they set up in Liberia at the
height of the Ebola crisis last year.
It's the latest sign that life is returning to normal
in the West African country where more than 4
600 people have died from Ebola.
On Thursday, US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy
praised the "response and resilience" of Liberians.
Liberia has gone 32 days now without a new
Ebola case. If it stays that way until May 9, the
World Health Organisation could declare the
country Ebola-free.
The United States government last year deployed
more than 2 000 troops to fight Ebola in Liberia,
setting up about 15 treatment centres.
Six of them are still being actively used by local
health workers for various purposes.
