stronger this year, offering more jobs to Liberians
and raising living standards. Ebola is not just a
health crisis across West Africa, a generation
of young people risk being lost to an economic
catastrophe as harvests are missed, markets are
shut and borders are closed, President Sirleaf
declared.
But even as the world began the pour in aid, the
deaths piled up. On 21 July 2014, four nurses at
Phebe Hospital in Bong Country contracted Ebola
and on July 27 Samuel Brisbane, the Chief Medical
Doctor at the John F. Kennedy Medical Center died
from Ebola raising fears amongst other workers
at the hospital.
The number of health care workers dying
from Ebola began increasing and many started
abandoning the hospitals and Ebola treatment
units for fear of contracting the virus.

Monrovia -
Schools Closed
On Wednesday, July 30, 2014, President Sirleaf
ordered stringent measures in an effort to the
fight the virus, announcing closure of all schools
and a 30-day compulsory leave for non-essential
staff at government ministries and agencies,
closure of video clubs and other entertainment
centers.
Today, we announce the following additional
measures: All non -essential staff, to be determined
by the Minister or Head of Agency, are to be placed
on a 30 -day compulsory leave. Friday, August 1,
is declared a non-working day and is to be used
for the disinfection and chlorination of all public
facilities, stated the President. The President
also without exception announced closure of all
schools.
Without exceptions, all schools are ordered
closed pending further directive from the Ministry
of Education. All markets at border areas including
Foya, Bo Waterside, and Ganta are hereby ordered
closed until further notice, she said.

a man dying
of Ebola one
evening in June, the Logan
Town clinic was defenseless.
Workers had no protective
suits only a few pairs of
faded gloves and a shaky
grasp of infection control.
They examined the patient by
candlelight and washed their
hands in buckets.
That single case set off a chain
of contagion that killed six of
the clinics 29 employees and
at least nine of their relatives,
including one of the countrys
top basketball players, as
Liberia became the center of
the deadliest Ebola epidemic in
history.
Ten months after that fateful
evening, the Logan Town clinic
is now equipped with a triage
room and hand-washing station
near the entrance, an isolation
room, a large generator and a
water pump that feeds the taps.
From the improvements, and
how we examine the patients
now, Ebola will not come back,
said Bessie Johnson, 32, a nurse.
It wont happen again.
On Saturday, Liberia is expected
to be declared free of Ebola by
the World Health Organization,
having gone 42 days since
its last victim was buried, or
twice the maximum incubation
period of the virus.
Recovering From Ebola
These articles, reported over
a period of eight months,
chronicle
the
devastating
impact of Ebola on a family,
health clinic and church in
Monrovia. All three belonged to
a single chain of infection that
killed dozens of people.
It will be a seminal moment
for a country that was once so
overwhelmed by the epidemic
that bodies littered the streets
and hospitals shut down,
leaving the sick helpless, often
seeking treatment in vain.
I am thrilled by the significant
progress made by the people of
Liberia, said Tolbert Nyenswah,
a deputy health minister. But,
he warned, We still need to
keep up vigilance.
The weak health systems
in Liberia, Sierra Leone and
Guinea, the three nations hit
hardest by the disease, did
more than just crumple in the
face of Ebolas onslaught last
year. They played a central role
in spreading the disease.
OBITUARY
LIBERIA-RAVAGED BY EBOLA
Faces a Future without it
facilities.
Physical improvements have
already been made to many
hospitals and clinics, where
infection control training has
taken place.
But there is a lot more to do,
and finding the money will not
be easy.
Last month, Liberia put forward
an Ebola recovery plan that
included its ambitions of
building a more resilient
health system along with
better schools, sanitation, and
access to clean water at a
cost of hundreds of millions of
dollars.
Given that Ebola delivered
a huge economic blow to an
already poor country, much of
the money it needs to rebound
from the epidemic will have to
come from outside Liberia, the
plan makes clear.
And some improvements can
be fragile. During an Ebola
outbreak in a neighborhood
called St. Pauls Bridge in
February, the sick scattered
to community clinics and
hundreds of health care
workers had to be placed under
quarantine. A half-dozen clinics
were shut down temporarily.
Dr. Dahn said that triage was
not carried out properly at the
affected clinics, adding, Its
difficult to change behavior. It
requires a lot of coaching and
mentoring, which need to go
on.
Even if the country is declared
Ebola-free on Saturday, the
threat
persists.

thanking God for Liberia
being declared Ebola free.
The

the
theme
special
thanksgiving for declaring
Liberia Free from Ebola
was held at the Fish
Market in Sinkor and was
witnessed by women of
WIPNET, WANEP, UNMIL
and traditional leaders

Numerous flowers were
deposited for the remains
of those who died during
the Ebola crisis.
Ebola must Go, Ebola Must
Go from Liberia Sierra,
Guinea and Liberia with
a joint effort we can kick

song by musicians in
commemoration of the day.
Madam Bernice Freeman,
Zooning Coordinator of
WIPNET said the day is to
commemorate more than
a year of pain Liberians
experienced.
Today we are gathered
here to say thanks to God
for his many blessings
to us, Liberia was placed
aside, mistreated by her
fellow counterparts, and I
am glad today that we have
been declared Ebola free,
she said.
In a tearful tone, Madam
Freeman
continued:

over yet and cross-border
surveillance must continue
Monrovia, Liberia/Brussels,

fter 42 days with
no recorded cases
of Ebola, Liberia
has been declared
Ebola-free by the World
Health Organization (WHO)
news which has been
welcomed by international
medical
organisation
Mdecins Sans Frontires/
Doctors Without Borders
(MSF). However, MSF warns
that, with new cases of
Ebola still being recorded
in neighbouring Guinea and
Sierra Leone, the outbreak is
not over yet.
For Liberia to record 42
days with zero cases of Ebola
is a real milestone, says
Mariateresa
Cacciapuoti,
MSFs head of mission in
Liberia. But we cant take
our foot off the gas until all
three countries record 42
days with no cases.
MSF points to the need
to improve cross-border
surveillance to prevent Ebola
re-emerging in Liberia. The
Liberian government and the
Liberian people have worked
hard to help us achieve 42
days of zero Ebola cases,
but that hard work could be
undone in an instant, says
Ms Cacciapuoti.
Nearly two hundred Liberian
health workers died after
contracting Ebola, and the
epidemic decimated the
countrys already fragile
national health system. Its
time for health needs to be
addressed as a priority, says
Ms Cacciapuoti. Liberians
must feel confident they can
go to hospital once again
and have their healthcare
needs looked after. The
international
community
must support Liberia and
Guinea and Sierra Leone
in rebuilding a strong and
affordable national health
system with adequate human
and material resources.
As flagged in the MSF
report Pushed to the Limit

released
in late March, the Ebola
epidemic has exposed the

NIGERIA STRUGGLES
TO PAY WORKERS
RONT
on May 29.
An increase in the minimum
wage in 2010, coupled with
an already bloated federal
civil service, mean that
personnel costs already
outstrip
projected
oil
revenues, and nearly a trillion
naira has also been set aside
to service existing debts.
The
vast
majority
of
Nigerias 36 states survive
on allocations from the
federal government, and
since these allocations are
bailout.
Removal of fuel subsidies and
right sizing of the civil service
are two of the more obvious
but politically charged steps
that the federal government
can take. In fact president
Goodluck
Jonathans
government has said it will
slash fuel subsidies by 90%
by gradually phasing out the
subsidies.
And last month the governor
of Nigerias Central Bank,
Godwin Emefiele, recently
suggested
selling
off
government stakes in joint
ventures with multinational
oil companies in order to raise
money for infrastructure
projects. This solution is also
controversial, but if the case
can be made that the national
oil company, NNPC, is beyond
reform, a fact highlighted
by the recent release of a
forensic audit of the national
oil company, then it could be
easier to swallow.
For as long as lower oil prices
persist, the states will also
have to get creative with
increasing their Internally
Generated Revenues (IGR)
and cost cuts, by focusing
on encouraging enterprise
which will generate jobs,
reducing the number of civil
servants at state level, and
properly exploiting the solid
minerals present in a number
of states.
Whatever course of action
is embarked on by Nigerias
government at federal and
state levels, the adjustments
will be tough. They must have
the political will necessary to
make the hard decisions.

Evolution of the outbreak
The start of the outbreak
was deceptively slow. Health
officials were on high alert
for cases following WHOs
confirmation, on 23 March
2014, of the Ebola outbreak in
Guinea. Liberias first 2 cases,
in the northern county of Lofa
near the border with Guinea,
were confirmed on 30 March
2014.
On 7 April, 5 more cases were
confirmed, 4 in Lofa and 1
in Monrovia. All 5 died. The
situation then stabilized, with
no new cases reported during
April and most of May.
Further cases were detected
in early June, mainly in Lofa
county, but the trend did not
look alarming, especially when
compared with the situation
elsewhere. At the end of June,
Liberia reported 41 cases,
compared with 390 in Guinea
and 158 in Sierra Leone.
The impression of a calm
situation turned out to be an
illusion. The first additional
cases in Monrovia were
reported in mid-June. The city
was ill-prepared to cope with
the onslaught of infections
that rapidly followed as the
virus raced through hospitals,
communities, and eventually
entire neighbourhoods.
Case numbers that had
multiplied
quickly
began
to grow exponentially. On
6 August, President Ellen
Johnson
Sirleaf
declared
a three-month state of
emergency and announced
several strict measures aimed
at getting cases down.
In mid-August, a WHO team of
emergency experts estimated
that Monrovia needed 1000
