Country: | Yes Ebola is still around in Africa, it is confined to West Africa as sufferers can't travel far as they die quickly as a result it has not spread to far (thankfully). http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/me...tes/413496.stm

Country: | Not a nice place to go (disease wise) otherwise it is not to bad, although there is a lot of unrest there which is what you were probably going to help out as a peacekeeping force or for humanitarian reasons.
