The Ebola crisis in Sierra Leone has taken a turn for the worse as Health workers are said to have dumped dead bodies in the street in protest of the non-payment of their allowances.
The workers left about 15 infected corpses, including those of two babies, outside a hospital and a spokesperson said that they had not been paid for seven weeks.
Authorities have said that all the Health workers would be dismissed while confirming that they were indeed being owed allowances.
"Displaying corpses in a very, very inhumane manner is completely unacceptable," the spokesman for the National Ebola Response Centre, Sidi Yahya Tunis said.
Tunis also said that the money had already been released to the district health management team
"Somebody somewhere needs to be investigated (to find out) where these monies have been going," he told Reuters.
The bodies were reportedly dropped in front of the hospital to keep people from entering while, according to the head of the district Ebola Response Team, Abdul Wahab Wan, some other corpses were displayed around the hospital.
