The American doctor who contracted the Ebola virus has been airlifted to BER airport. From there, a special vehicle took him in a large convoy, accompanied among others by the police, on to Berlin’s Charité university hospital.
He was accompanied by six close contacts, believed to include members of his family. Dr Peter Stafford and his wife, Dr Rebekah Stafford, are medical missionaries and belong to Serge, a Christian mission organisation based in Pennsylvania that focuses on medical and humanitarian aid abroad.
