Foreign aid for countries battling the Ebola outbreak has continued to pour in with China announcing a donation of$32.5 million and the World Bank approving a $105 million grant to boost efforts to combat the disease.
However, the aid from China and the World Bank will only be given to Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea because they are the worst hit by the disease.
Nigeria was not named among the countries to benefit from the aid funds and it is believed that this is because Ebola has been successfully contained in the nation and even at its peak it didn’t infect as many people as in the 3 disease-ravaged nations.
