William Pooley, the 29 year old British nurse who recently got treated of the Ebola virus which he contracted while working as a volunteer nurse in Sierra Leone , says he plans to go back to the country to continue working there and help other victims . Speaking with UK Guardian , Pooley said ; “ While I ’ m happy to be recovered and alive , there ’ s a lot of stuff on my mind with what ’s going on back there.
It would be relatively safe for me to
go back and work there, and it’ s
really the least I could do having
received all this amazing care and
have people look after me and
potentially save my life .
It ’ s the least I could do to go back
and return the favour to some other
people , even just for a little while. The more help they get, the less chance there is they get sick. ” he said .
His mother, Jackie, also supports his
wish to head back to Sierra Leone
“ We would want him to go back , not as an individual but with an
organization of some kind so he ’ s got the backing . Obviously in a way we don ’t want [him] to , but I can see I would feel very proud of him if he decided he was going to , because he knows what it is going to be like , ” she said .
