African religious leaders draw safe practices map to fight Ebola virus
African church leaders, theologians, and health professionals have drawn up a road map to educate faith communities in the fight against Ebola.
The virus has killed more than 5,000 so far and has been declared a global security threat by the United Nations.
The road map, drawn at a three-day conference in late November in Nairobi that was attended by 70 religious and health-care leaders, highlights the role faith groups can play as part of the global response, according to church leaders.
