Nebraska Medical Center said in a news release Monday that Dr. Martin Salia died as a result of the disease.
Salia contracted Ebola while working as a surgeon in Sierra Leone. He arrived Saturday to be treated at the Omaha hospital, where two other Ebola patients have been successfully treated.
Ebola has killed more than 5,000 people in West Africa. Salia was a citizen of Sierra Leone.
There can be no better way to die than in the effort to save others.
All this PC garbage – he probably died in excruciating agony. THAT is heroic?
What does pain matter? Doing the right thing matters.
