Liberia Ebola No Chance to Say Goodbye

0

In this picture taken Sunday, Sept. 28, 2014, Kumba "survivor" Fayiah, 11, sits with relatives
in her St Paul Bridge home in Monrovia, Liberia. Fayah , who lost both parents and her sister, recovered
from the Ebola virus and is now living with her extended family. As the death toll from Ebola soars,
crowded clinics are turning over beds as quickly as patients are dying. This leaves social workers and
psychologists struggling to keep pace and notify families, who must wait outside for fear of contagion.
Also, under a government decree, all Ebola victims must be cremated, leaving families in unbearable pain
with no chance for goodbye, no body to bury.
