This is one strange story from Eleven. Ethiopia and other countries managed to send doctors before the crisis was over. Antibiotics don't immunise people. And don't work against viruses. The final line appears to have been put there by an editor and not removed before the story was published.

Myanmar delays deploying volunteer doctors as Ebola fades

Plans formulated by the World Health Organization (WHO) to send volunteer doctors from the Asean region to African countries affected by the Ebola outbreak have been delayed since the Ebola crisis has calmed, according to Deputy Director General Dr Soe Lwin Nyein from Myanmar’s Department of Health.

WHO arranged to send volunteer doctors to countries with the highest Ebola incidents, such as Liberia and Sierra Leone, at the end of 2014. WHO estimates that 5,000 healthcare workers and 700 doctors are needed urgently in Ebola-affected areas.

Myanmar has in the past sent volunteer doctors to the countries affected by epidemics, including healthcare workers who trained locally and overseas.

And Asean health ministers’ meeting decided to send healthcare workers to West African countries. WHO also invited healthcare workers from European countries.

This year, Ebola incidents have increased in three Western African countries. Sierra Leone has 124 new Ebola patients, Guinea has 39 and Liberia has five. The outbreak worsened in 2015, announced the WHO on February 4.

About 9,000 Ebola patients out of over 20,000 patients died of the disease in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia. At present, pharmaceutical companies and healthcare agencies are trying to produce antibiotics to immunise people to the disease.

These paragraphs seem to indicate the opposite of what the headline says.
