More money has been announced to help the emergency response to the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.
The Gates Foundation - set up by the Microsoft founder Bill Gates and his wife Melinda - is committing $50m to help step up efforts to tackle the deadly virus in the affected countries.
This comes on top of other funds announced by the UK and US governments, as well as the European Union. But some aid charities say that the most urgent need in Africa is for expert teams in bio-hazard containment.
