Estonia is sending hand sanitizer and antibacterial liquid soap to Sierra Leone in cooperation with Britain to prevent further spread of the Ebola virus in West Africa, the Estonian Public Broadcasting (ERR) reported on Friday.

The ERR report cited Estonian Minister of Foreign Affairs Keit Pentus-Rosimannus that the disinfectants sent from Estonia will help create a safer environment for all the volunteers who care for patients at the centers, as well as for all of those coming to the centers seeking help.

The World Health Organization reports that as of the end of November a total of 15,935 cases of Ebola have been registered and of those, 5,689 cases ended in death.
