Sierra Leonean migrants cause Ebola Scare on Nudist Beach
A group of migrants arriving on a Canary Islands
nudist beach caused panic among naked
holidaymakers when they reported having
symptoms associated with Ebola.
To the shock of nudist holidaymakers, the 19
migrants landed on the Gran Canaria beach of
Maspalomas about 8.30am and were isolated for
seven hours while authorities struggled to decide
what to do.
Several of the migrants said they were from Sierra
Leone and Guinea - two of the most badly affected
countries in the current outbreak.
The Red Cross arrived and quickly established a
cordon separating the group from the nearby
nudists, then began taking their temperatures
while wearing protective gear such as breathing
masks and gloves.
Eventually, the authorities used a dump truck to
collect the group and take them away to a holding
center.
Local authorities later confirmed none of the group
were carrying the deadly virus, although four
were taken to hospital with health issues.
