In New Ebola Outbreak, Health-Care Workers Come Under Attack

Rebels in Democratic Republic of Congo are attacking health centers and medical staff, in part due to suspicion of Westerners.
The violence is making the situation worst second-deadliest outbreak of the highly contagious disease.
Ms. Kiyangaliya, 33-year-old hairdresser, is in an extraordinary passion to help patients with Ebola.
As a survivor herself few months ago, she is now immune, allowing her to have close contact with the afflicted, but there is still the risk of getting infected.

A group of men firing AK-47s attacked the treatment center where she was working.

“Get them, those are the workers!” the armed men yelled. Ms. Kiyangaliya scrambled over a fence, eventually finding refuge in a neighbor’s house.

Question is, What was the reason behind the attacks in the treatment centers?
