RT The spread of Ebola is outrunning efforts to stop it, according to international aid group Doctors Without Borders, which estimates it might take six months to get the situation under control. The chief of the French-founded group, also known as Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Joanne Liu, spent 10 days in the disease-hit regions of West Africa, before voicing her conclusions at a Friday press conference in Geneva. “[Ebola] is deteriorating faster, and moving faster, than we can respond to,” she told reporters. The deadliest ever outbreak of Ebola has already claimed 1,145 lives, according to official figures, which could in fact “vastly underestimate” the real magnitude of the disaster, the World Health Organization warned a day earlier.
