Did the Western Media Overlook Africa's Role in Fighting Ebola?

The Director of social affairs at the African Union Commission thinks so. He complains:

“Unfortunately, Africans do not have the international voice of CNN, BBC and France 24, therefore much of our work is overlooked in the western media,” he said. “Most of the assistance provided by the international community is in the areas of finance and infrastructure. In the most critical human resources for health, Africans – including the affected countries – have had to take the lead.”
