Fortunately the nurse has stablised, should they end up with a 3rd medical staff member catching Ebola they will have some hard questions to answer.

way I read it is that they are building a legacy not a quick & dirty solution.

Sounds like they would be better dropping pre built shipping containers with 3 - 5 beds in clusters in each area.

They could also try inflatable concrete.

they need beds now.

£250 million quid would buy and deploy a lot of suitably equipped shipping containers.

You can recall them or leave them as a local hospital with more general use.

MSF seem to have a similar attitude opening large hospitals.

Good people out of their depth, I think they should have just helped Medecins San Frontier who have experience and competence in this area.
