'They Killed Him Like A Dog' - America’s First Ebola Victim’ Sister Fumes

 
America invented the Ebola virus to 'kill Africans' and deliberately left victim Thomas Eric Duncan to die 'like a dog' in revenge for bringing the disease into the U.S, his sister claimed today.
In an extraordinary interview with MailOnline, grieving Mary Pearson claimed that the deadly virus was created as part of an experiment to infect black people on the continent - echoing the views of a race-hate preacher who says Ebola was invented to 'depopulate' Africa.
Mrs Pearson, 52, who runs a general store in Liberian capital Monrovia, said: 'What we heard is that Ebola was created by the Americans and they sent it to kill us.

 
'You are the ones that sent it to kill us. They sent the virus and infected people here. Then they blamed Liberians for Ebola. They killed that boy for nothing.'
Thomas Eric Duncan died in Dallas on October 8 after flying to the US from Liberia three weeks earlier. He was infected when he helped a pregnant neighbour seek hospital treatment.
Mrs Pearson insisted that her brother did not receive the same level of care as American citizens who had contracted the disease and were taken back to the US for treatment.
 
It comes as the Texas Presbyterian Hospital accused of failing in his care was forced to settle with Mr Duncan's family in a secret deal.
Of the nine people who have been treated for Ebola in the U.S., only Duncan has died and his nephew Josephus Weeks said: 'We begged. We pleaded. I even offered my own blood, even though it wouldn't do anything for him. We requested everything we could think of to save Eric. They said no.'
Mrs Pearson said: 'Eric suffered in exile and it really hurts me. They didn't feel sorry for him. They didn't give him drugs. They had the means to treat him but they treated him like a dog.
'They are wicked. They didn't treat him because they said he brought Ebola to America.'
Duncan was infected on September 15 when he went to help out a pregnant neighbour, Marthaline Williams, 19, who was sick and needed to get to hospital. There was no ambulance available so Duncan loaded her into a taxi and took her himself.
Williams died from Ebola the following day.
