The
British-born actor teamed up with Manchester City's Yaya Toure,
veteran Arsenal player Patrick Viera, retired Congolese midfielder
Fabrice Muamba, and Spurs midfielder Andros Townsend to lend a voice
for workers who have become indispensable over these past months
giving up their lives and time to fight the epidemic.
Elba
plays coach in the video giving his team (health workers) pep talk:
“ This is not an ordinary game,” he says. “ This is life or death. Ebola has defeated thousands in West Africa. Its key strength is passing.”
The
message is simple, join in supporting Ebola health workers, the
world's most important team. #We'veGotYourBack.
