Description :
This hospital was turned into an Ebola Treatment Unit and subsequently abandoned. Next to it, Swiss Doctors Without Borders built an Ebola triage transit station for the neighborhood. The rest of the facility being contaminated and littered with trash, the ICRC took on the cleaning and decontaminating work for the hospital to be accessible and practical if potentially reopened.
