Ethiopia Establishes Anti-Ebola Committee

The Public Health Institute has announced that Ethiopia has set up a National Committee to put in place a plan to prevent and contain any possible outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus, which is currently spreading in West Africa.

A spokesperson for the Institute, Abel Yeshaneh, said the National Committee would draw up guidelines to prevent and contain Ebola and these guidelines would be made official shortly. According to information from the Institute, the Committee members will be from the Ministry of Health, Ethiopian Airlines and other stake holders.

Ethiopian Airlines, which operates an extensive flight network connecting West African countries to other parts of the world, has already announced it has put in place "precautions in connection with the outbreak of the disease in some parts of West Africa."
