In 1976 researchers discovered a new virus, which they named the Ebola virus after a river in Central Africa. The virus killed two hundred eighty people before it seemingly disappeared into the jungle. No one suspected the virus would erupt in West Africa nearly four decades later to cause an unprecedented epidemic. Ebola has riveted and terrified the world since its reemergence from the jungle, killing more than eleven thousand people since December 2013. By using proper protective gear, safe burial protocols, cleansing techniques, and educational outreach, the disease has been slowed in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone. Hear from Ebola survivors and learn what experts say about this devastating disease.
