US says Ebola patients will be evacuated to Europe, not treated in America, as outbreak grows
read at STAT ↗RegulatoryNegative
The World Health Organization is reviewing which vaccines could help curb the expanding Ebola outbreak in Africa.
The U.S. government announced it will no longer bring Americans infected with Ebola to U.S. treatment facilities.
Instead, patients will be evacuated to unspecified locations in Europe, a move the administration says will speed care.
Health experts criticized the decision as a further retreat from global health leadership amid the third-largest Ebola outbreak on record.
