Ebola Lessons

In the last year Ebola virus has killed more than 10,400 people, including almost 500 health workers. On the front lines in Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mali, and other countries, health workers are toiling to save lives and contain the outbreak amidst personal risk, fear, and inadequate conditions. Without training and support for these workers, the virus will continue to spread.
