(They’re going after the people trying to help AGAIN!)

A team burying Ebola victims was attacked in Sierra Leone’s capital on Saturday, a member of parliament said, as a small group defied a three-day lockdown....... armed policemen accompanying the burial team quickly arrived, causing the attackers to flee..

Volunteers and healthcare workers are often viewed with suspicion by locals who blame them for infecting the communities they are meant to be healing, slowing the ability of authorities to contain the disease.

other info:

A chartered 747 jet, carrying the largest single shipment of aid, including protective gear and medications, to the Ebola zone to date and coordinated by the Clinton Global Initiative and other U.S. aid organizations, departed New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on ‘Saturday afternoon ‘bound for West Africa.
