Dr Gabriel Fitzpatrick told Shelagh Fogarty about his life on the front line of the battle against Ebola at a Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) treatment centre in Sierra Leone. He described the precautions that staff have to take against infection, and the stress of knowing how easy it would to succumb to the deadly disease. He also talked about the difficulty of seeing patients who work in healthcare, some of whom do not survive. This clip is from Shelagh Fogarty on 20 August 2014
