This is the incredible moment a man thought to have died from
Ebola was discovered to be still alive by funeral workers. The
37-year-old was lying in the middle of a street in Liberia's capital
Monrovia when a team of workers began to wrap up his body.
A
reporter from ABC News was filming a piece to camera about the removal
of the 'dead' man's body. As the funeral workers sprayed the man with
disinfectant and began to wrap his body, they discovered he was
alive...
The reporter, Dr Richard Besser, was speaking to the camera and was left
astonished by what he saw:
"He is not dead. They were
wrapping him away but he is alive. He is moving his arm. They almost
took him away to the crematorium and they noticed he was moving his
arm."
The unnamed man had been dying from the virus
for several days and it is claimed ambulance workers refused to treat
him. After realising that he was still alive, many of the people in the street had to plead that he was taken to hospital.
Eventually,
an ambulance was called to the scene earlier this week and the man was
taken to hospital. His current state is not yet known.
