MONROVIA, Liberia - Armed men attacked an Ebola clinic in Monrovia, local witnesses told Agence France Presse.
As many as 29 potentially Ebola-infected patients fled, the news agency reported.
"They broke down the doors and looted the place. The patients all fled," said Rebecca Wesseh, who witnessed the attack and whose report was confirmed by residents and the head of Health Workers Association of Liberian, George Williams.
The attack comes just one day after a report of a crowd of several hundred local residents, chanting, 'No Ebola in West Point,' drove away a burial team and their police escort that had come to collect the bodies of suspected Ebola victims in a slum in the capital, Reuters reports.

Natural selection targets the stupid. This is why plagues tend to kill “from the bottom up”, taking out the sickly, the weak, the fools, the lazy, the looters and other scoundrels, and the other people, many good, who make bad gambles without even knowing it.
Is there a group which would like to see this plague spreading?
Yes, they are called “liberals” in this country. Never let a good crisis go to waste....
Thanks for this remarkable post. It sheds light in many directions. If Ebola spreads to the US
I don't want to think what they might do.
I watched the fuel run out on the engines of the chillers on containers full of AIDS medicines sitting on the docks because it would not be released without bribes. The medicine was ruined. I never knew what happened to it.
I watched fight on the street every day outside my office window. The arguments were child like.
I saw people in public housing thrown out on the streets so the buildings could be razed so the powers-that-be could build expensive apartments and offices.
