    I can't imagine being deathly ill and not being able to go to the hospital. That's unbelievably scary and just painful to even think about, I can't imagine what the people that went through that actually felt.

    It was an extremely accurate portrayal of all that went on in both Monrovia and Liberia in 2014 during the Ebola Epidemic.

    The horror. And the frustration from the lack of infrastructure. If the top richest CEO's in the world would give up a billion dollars each and put it towards infrastructure of health clinics and water sources all over the world we could prevent this from happening again and end AIDS, malaria, plague, cholera, and so many other illnesses.

    International help came to late. And also the government of these countries acted to late. The WHO acted to late.

    I’m glad the Ebola outbreak ended but I just wish the covid outbreak would end as well. Covid shows that not only third world countries suffer major outbreaks but also those countries that are well developed with medical professionals who have the skills, medical equipment and knowledge

    Just completely sad, and disturbing seeing there is in limited doctors, nurses, and medical equipment. Just how were are short on ppe in the 20th century with this covid-19.just horrific...

    That 7 year old is very rational. He still wants to attend school. “We will still come in contact with ebola at home,” and then it cuts to people congregating at a church building. Education is just as important as worship. Worship can be done from home, schooling is a little more complicated.
