Police Clashes Escalate in Liberia as Ebola Victims Lay Dead in Homes, Streets for Days

The deadly Ebola epidemic that has stricken Western Africa is triggering major civil unrest in Liberia, Monrovia, where individuals have taken to forming roadblocks and preventing government vehicles from freely moving through the city in an attempt to bring attention to the abandoned bodies all over the city.

Agence France-Presse reports that vehicles were mostly unable to traffic through the city as citizens blocked the roads to bring attention to the dead there. "No cars are allowed to pass on this road until the government can come and get the bodies that have been lying in the houses for four days now," said protester Kamara Fofana, organizing a protest in a suburb of the capital.

Monrovia and its surroundings are laden with dead bodies, reports say--individuals who died of Ebola in their homes or lay openly on the street
