The director of operations of the humanitarian organisation Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF - Doctors Without Frontiers) Brice de la Vingue (R), and medical directors Bertrand Draguez (C) and Annette Heinzelmann (L) give a press conference on September 18, 2014 in Paris, after a MSF member has been infected by the Ebola virus in Liberia. The first French person to have been infected by the deadly Ebola virus was still in Liberia on September 18 and was waiting to be airlifted home, according to the humanitarian group she works for. The patient -- a female volunteer for MSF which has been hugely active in the fight against the killer virus that is ravaging west Africa -- was placed in isolation on on September 16 after showing symptoms of the disease.
