Summary of Problem and Policy

Ebola may be out of the news, but people are still being affected every day.

To achieve needed changes in education, economics and health care, the United States should utilise foreign aid by sending medical professionals and teachers to Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia to fight the spread of Ebola.

Foreign Aid will financially ensure the wellbeing of Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Liberia.

Keeping the Ebola virus at bay will also require more aid workers. But unfortunately, the younger generation won’t be able to help with this catastrophe because their schools are being closed.

Ebola also drains the already delicate health system of affected countries.

Supporting Arguments

Sierra Leone specifically experienced a thirty percent deflation in their economy because of a heavy dependence on agriculture.

54% of children were unlikely to return to the classroom if they were out of school for a year.

Sierra Leone alone has only 136 doctors for 6 million people.
