The German government has commissioned flag carrier Lufthansa to develop special aircraft equipped to carry patients infected with the deadly Ebola virus, a newspaper reported on Sunday.
Citing government sources, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung reported that officials planned to develop several planes that were designed to safely carry such highly infectious patients.
According to the paper, the planes are meant to be ready by mid-November, which is when the first German volunteers to fight the disease are to arrive in the West African countries affected by the current outbreak.
