WHO 'needs urgent overhaul' following Ebola crisis

The Ebola crisis proves the World Health Organization (WHO) lacks the "capacity and culture" to deal with global health emergencies, says a damning independent report, commissioned by the WHO itself.

The independent report found the response to the outbreak was hampered by a lack of funding and poor communication with other UN agencies.

It criticised the WHO's bureaucratic culture and "a hope that the crisis could be managed by good diplomacy.''
