The unemotional professionalism of the Red Cross workers hired to dispose of Ebola bodies is a shocking sight.
For Oliver, it must be unimaginably painful.
Security guards in front of the desperately overcrowded unit continue to chat while the bodies are loaded.
One woman laughed loudly, seemingly oblivious to the grim loading up process taking place behind her.
Throughout Monrovia there are huge advertising hoardings warning people of the dangers.
Yet in the filthy slums, many seem to be going about their Sunday afternoon business as normal.
Torrential rain fell all day, turning the shanty town tracks into a putrid quagmire.
It must be the ideal breeding ground for a virus so contagious a quick touch on the arm from a sufferer is apparently enough to spread it.
By the time you know you should have been more careful, it might already be too late.
Wracked by the loss of his beloved wife, Oliver also feared that he too might have Ebola.
Incubation can take up to 21 days. “I might have it,” Oliver admitted.
“I feel fine now, but it is very likely. Until she got Ebola, I didn’t understand how scary it is.
"Now I’m terrified for our son too.”
As the back panel on the truck carrying Layson’s body was slammed shut, Oliver shuddered.
A disease he had not heard of six months ago has ruined his life in less than a fortnight.
