About the Book

The 2014 Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak in West Africa remains in the news. However, despite how prolific this disease is, the main reservoir for Ebola is unknown. The virus for now has no cure, or vaccine. This book illuminates this mysterious disease by explaining the experiences of Ebola virus survivors and their caregivers during the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa. It also highlights experiences of government, nongovernmental organizations, media reporters, and academicians who were on the frontline during the outbreak. The book specifically explained how Monrovians coped with the threat of Ebola and the scientific approach used to minimize and to stop the spread of the EVD. It is interesting to note that Ebola is one of the world's worst recorded pandemics. As the world currently wrestles with the COVID-19 pandemic, it is crucial to note the importance of public health education. This is a must-read book; it helps to prepare health workers and the general public in the event of an outbreak.
