ECOWAS Set-up Group To End Ebola Spread


In its bid to stop the spread of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) among the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) member-countries, 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.

President of the ECOWAS Commission, Kadre Desire Ouedraogo, announced the new measures against Ebola at a media briefing in Abuja.

However, the ministers also 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.
