David Cameron has called for EU leaders to double their funding in the fight against Ebola to £800 million.
It comes after one of the doctors who discovered the virus, Professor Peter Piot, said the rest of Europe was not doing enough to tackle the epidemic.
Downing Street said the current total contribution from the EU was just £400 million.
The British nurse who survived Ebola has hinted he could return to the country where he contracted the deadly virus to help fight the outbreak.
William Pooley was flown from Sierra Leone to the UK for treatment and was given the experimental drug ZMapp, before being given the all-clear and discharged.
But in an interview with the Guardian, the 29-year-old volunteer nurse from Suffolk said, "It's the least I could do to go back and return the favour to some other people, even just for a little while."
"While I'm happy to be recovered and alive, there's a lot of stuff on my mind with what's going on back there. It would be relatively safe for me to go back and work there," Mr Pooley added.
