LONDON , Oct. 17 (UPI) -- Although over 800 British doctors, nurses and paramedics have applied to work in Sierra Leone to combat the Ebola virus, charities say rumors have dampened recruiting.
"There's some serious fear and paranoia around that's not based on facts, and they haven't anything to worry about. If someone doesn't have symptoms you can't give someone Ebola," said Sean Casey of the International Medical Corps' response team in Liberia.
