NewYorkPost: Nudists were shocked when a group of migrants arrived on their
Gran Canaria beach and described having Ebola-like symptoms, Metro.co.uk
reported.
Some of the 19 migrants were from Sierra Leone
and Guinea, two of the West African countries ravaged by the deadly disease.
They were looking for a better future in Spain.
The migrants were kept in a pseudo-quarantine
until a dump truck took them away to be processed. The startled nudists were
kept at bay during the tense episode.
Four of the migrants were taken to a hospital,
but none of the 19 was found to have Ebola.
The beach, Maspalomas, can only be reached by
walking across sand dunes for 2 miles.
San Bartolome Mayor Marco Aurelio Perez told
Spanish newspaper El Mundo that the island is an “established destination” for
migrants.
“Unfortunately, illegal immigration has become
a common sight in the West,” Perez said.
