John Moore—Getty Images  by [Noah Rayman](https://time.com/author/noah-rayman/)  ## Noah Rayman Nov 6, 2014 1:15 PM UTC Uniformed American officers are [due](http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/11/05/ebola-americans-military-treatment-public-health-service/18538273/) to open and staff a field clinic for Ebola patients outside the Liberian capital of Monrovia this coming weekend, marking the United States’ latest bid to help bring the regional outbreak under control. President Barack Obama had previously said none of the roughly 4,000 American troops deployed to Liberia would care for patients suffering from Ebola. But, _USA Today_ reports, 70 uniformed government personnel from the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, of the Department of Health and Human Services, will be the first to do so and specifically treat health care workers who contract the deadly virus. “They have to feel secure that there will be a high level of care provided if they do fall ill of Ebola,” Rear Adm. Scott Giberson, acting U.S. deputy surgeon general, said in the report, adding that the volunteers were among some 1,700 members who had expressed a willingness to be deployed. The World Health Organization said Wednesday that at least 310 health care workers have died in the West Africa outbreak that has killed more than 4,800 people this year. That same day, Obama [announced](http://time.com/3559031/obama-ebola-funding/) he would ask Congress for $6.2 million to fight Ebola. \[[_USA Today_](http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/11/05/ebola-americans-military-treatment-public-health-service/18538273/)\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3560575/u-s-officers-ebola-liberia/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3560575/u-s-officers-ebola-liberia/"},"headline":"U.S. Clinic in Liberia Will Treat Doctors and Nurses Who Contract Ebola","datePublished":"2014-11-06T13:15:10.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T11:16:15.980Z","description":"Seventy uniformed officers to specifically care for doctors and nurses","url":"https://time.com/3560575/u-s-officers-ebola-liberia/","keywords":["ebola","White House","President Barack Obama","Liberia"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd562b0fe6193cdbe/698764750b72e3555b6db694/ebola-liberia.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Noah Rayman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/noah-rayman/"}],"articleSection":"Health","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd562b0fe6193cdbe/698764750b72e3555b6db694/ebola-liberia.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Liberia Races To Expand Ebola Treatment Facilities, As U.S. Troops Arrive","caption":"U.S. Air Force personnel put up tents to house a 25-bed U.S.-built hospital for sick Liberian health workers as part in Operation United Assistance on Oct. 9, 2014 in Monrovia, Liberia.","creditText":"John Moore—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/health/","name":"Health"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/ebola/","name":"ebola"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3560575/u-s-officers-ebola-liberia/","name":"U.S. Clinic in Liberia Will Treat Doctors and Nurses Who Contract Ebola"}}]}] ```
