It is worth considering the extreme danger some people put themselves in for humanitarian reason!

Indeed a hero. Not like the gangsters who invade other countries for oil and resources.

A doctor who has treated hundreds with the deadly disease Ebola in Sierra Leone is fighting for his life after contracting the potentially-fatal illness himself. Sheik Umar Khan, 39, has been hailed as a national hero for his role in fighting an outbreak of the tropical virus which has already killed 206 people in the West African country, and more than 600 across Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Khan is said to have personally treated more than 100 Ebola victims, but has now been taken to a treatment ward run by medical charity Medicins Sans Frontieres after catching the virus. Health Minister Miatta Kargbo said she would "do anything and everything in my power to ensure he survives"... http://i3.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article3900533.ece/alternates/s615/Ebola-Virus-Graphic.jpg
