Violence against healthcare workers in DRC hampers Ebola response (2)

It would be helpful to know what misinformation regarding Ebola was spread in DRC that led to violence and the unfortunate death of health workers.

I specifically ask about such instances because, although not uncommon in India, may not be due to misinformation or maybe tangentially related to it.
