Liberian officials fear Ebola could soon spread through the capital's largest slum after residents raided a quarantine center for suspected patients, stealing items like medical equipment including excrement, vomit and blood stained blankets, sheets and mattresses. As many as 29 potentially Ebola-infected patients fled.
The violence occurred late Saturday and was led by residents angry that patients were brought from other parts of the capital to the isolation center.
