Take Action to Help End Ebola
The Ebola outbreak in West Africa has claimed more than 4,500 lives, and the number of cases grows every day. The World Health Organization is warning that, without urgent action in the coming months, the region could see up to 10,000 new cases of Ebola each week.
Our window to stop the Ebola outbreak from spiraling further out of control is closing fast — action is needed now.
The United Nations has a roadmap to stop the spread of Ebola. If G20 countries can commit and deploy the money, troops, and medics needed by the time they meet on November 15, we'll be on track to start seeing the number of new cases decline by December.
Add your name below and tell the G20 countries: Step up your commitments and help #EndEbola, before it's too late.
To G20 country leaders:
With the deadly Ebola virus continuing to tear through West Africa, we urge you to swiftly ensure all the personnel, equipment and funding required to halt the outbreak are made available, as outlined by the Framework for a Global Response to the Ebola Outbreak. By the time the G20 meets in Australia on November 15-16th, the world must be firmly on track to defeat the virus.
We have a window of a few weeks to contain this epidemic. Please act immediately to prevent this epidemic from causing further suffering and devastating more lives across West Africa, and beyond. We call on all G20 members to show real commitment and leadership in the midst of this global crisis and act now.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
