中国将派遣更多医务人员前往西非

Four more teams of Chinese medical workers and health experts from the People’s Liberation Army left Beijing for West Africa on Friday night to join the fight against Ebola.

A hundred and sixty-three of the medical workers will go to Liberia. The rest will be sent to Sierra Leone to join the Chinese personnel already there. They are going to provide training for local medical workers, community leaders, government staff, and volunteers.

So far, China has sent more than 300 medical workers to West African countries. The Chinese government has also provided the affected countries with financial and material aid, totaling 750 million yuan.
