CONAKRY, Sept. 15 -- Guinea plans to deploy mobile medical teams along its border with Liberia and Sierra Leone to take care of possible Ebola patients coming from the two neighboring nations, an official source has said.
The teams will be provided with vehicles and ambulances donated to Guinea by friendly countries as well as international organizations like UNICEF which has given the country 28 pickups.
Speaking on Friday after meeting with Guinean President Alpha Conde, UNICEF's regional director Manuel Fontaine said the agency had equally given Guinea 15 ambulances.
He said UNICEF will give further support to Guinea's fight against the disease by providing protective materials and logistical means.
Guinea has equally received financial support of 1 million U.S. dollars from Nigeria, under the auspices of West African Health Organization.
The national coordinator for the fight against Ebola Sakoba Keita said the vehicles and ambulances offered to Guinea will be deployed along the border with Liberia and Sierra Leone which extends over 1,000 km.
"The move aims to facilitate transportation of patients coming from the two countries seriously affected by Ebola, and we do not want to ban access to Guinean territory," he said.
Speaking recently in Europe and Addis Ababa where he had gone to appeal for aid to countries hit by Ebola outbreak, Guinea's Foreign Minister Francois Fall said the country had better health facilities to counter the disease compared to its neighbors which had come out of long years of civil wars.
At the same time, the World Health Organization (WHO) has hailed the move by the Cuban government to send 165 health professionals to help fight against the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.
The latest death toll from Ebola outbreak that was released on Friday by WHO indicated that 2,400 people had died out of 4,784 confirmed cases.
