[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Liberia's defence minister warned on Tuesday that the country's weak health system was already overwhelmed by the number of cases. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Mr Samukai told UN Security Council members that Liberia lacked "[url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/infrastructure][b]infrastructure[/b][/url], logistical capacity, professional [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/expertise][b]expertise[/b][/url]
and financial resources to effectively address this [url=http://www.enread.com/news/politics/98007.html]disease[/url]".[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"The deadly Ebola virus has caused a disruption of the normal functioning of our state," he said.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Separately on Tuesday, the UN's [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/envoy][b]envoy[/b][/url] in Liberia said that at least 160 Liberian health workers had contracted the disease and half of them had died.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Karin Landgren described the outbreak as a "latter-day plague" that was growing exponentially. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]She added that health workers were operating without proper protective equipment, training or pay, in comments to the UN Security Council.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"Liberians are facing their gravest threat since their war," Ms Landgren said.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px] "I don't think anybody can say right now that the international response to the [url=http://www.enread.com/news/politics/98007.html]Ebola[/url] outbreak is sufficient," US ambassador to the UN Samantha Power said after the Security Council briefing.[/size][/font]
