An Israeli team of experts will be joining other experts as the international community works to contain the Ebola virus that has already claimed 2,600 lives. The illness broke out a number of months ago and has since spread to Sierra Leone Cameron, Liberia, Nigeria and other countries. 5,300 people are currently infected with her virus. Israel has decided to send experts to join the international effort.
