Video: Frightening moment caught on camera as Ebola patient escapes medical centre in Liberia

Homenews

Watch as terrified onlookers attempt to keep their distance from an Ebola patient who decided to wander around a village in Monrovia, Liberia, in search of food.

The current Ebola outbreak is casing havoc in the West African nations of Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, but some patients aren’t exactly keen on waiting around medical centres for treatment. EuroNews recently posted the following footage which shows an Ebola patient wandering around a local market before doctors manage to catch the sick patient and bundle him into the back of an ambulance. It certainly is a frightening piece of footage and it almost looks like something out of a horror movie, rather than a piece of news. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-JZEaeOmfE
