Korean-American doctors to visit Pyongyang in May

Whether the doctors can enter the country despite the Ebola measures is unclear

A group of Korean-American physicians plan to visit Pyongyang for its annual medical exchange in May, Voice of America reported on Sunday.

"The invitation (to the medical exchange) arrived, as usual, from the North a month ago," U.S.-DPRK Medical Science Exchange chairman Park Moon-jae was quoted as saying. "It invited Korean-American doctors to hold a forum so we are supposed to visit, as usual, in the first week of May."
