The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has outlined measures to control the spread of Ebola and save its member-countries from further deaths.
Under the arrangement, a Ministerial Coordination Group, to be chaired by the Ghanian Health Minister with his counterparts from Ebola affected countries, has been set up by the commission.
In addition, the ministers raised a Technical Surveillance Group with members drawn from the West African Health Organisation, WAHO, Nigeria and World Health Organisation, WHO, among others, as members.
The President of the ECOWAS Commission, Kadre Desire Ouedraogo, announced the new measures at a media briefing in Abuja.
