After traveling for more than 20 hours, the first team of military medical workers dispatched to Liberia to help fight Ebola returned to Chongqing on Friday morning, having completed two months on the virus's front line.
The Chinese military medical rescue team sent to Liberia, one of the hardest-hit countries in the Ebola-stricken area of West Africa, consisted of 82 medical experts, doctors and nurses.
After going through a disinfection treatment and inspections, the medical workers left their plane wearing masks.
