LIBERIA ORDERS EBOLA VICTIMS' BODIES TO BE CREMATED

Liberia's government has ordered that all bodies of people killed by the Ebola virus must be cremated.
The decision follows the refusal of some communities to allow the burial of Ebola victims on their land.
Ebola has claimed 728 lives in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone this year, the worst-ever outbreak.
It spreads by contact with infected blood and bodily fluids - and touching the body of someone who has died of Ebola is particularly dangerous.
cremation is not part of the culture in Liberia and health experts say burial ceremonies have played a role in the transmission of the virus.
