The people who continued caring for the patients even at extreme risk of dying of it themselves are unsung heroes.

2:26 my heart broke to see the condition of that hospital. Makes me sick to my stomach to know that the planet is filled with so many resources and so many greedy politicians and billionaires and no one takes a moment to consider the live of others suffering watching their children die. They just sit back and watch these beautiful, innocent people die a horrible death and they don't think anything of it. All the money in the world and this happens. Some people are wealthy enough to feed a whole country for a year. Like what has happened to the hearts of humanity? Having mansions and yachts seem to be more important to them than saving a life. Destroys my heart 😞💔😢

Kudos to the people who tried their best to help the victims of this virus.

So, Zaire is pronounced as Za-ir not Zay-re?

[ineslopo]

[Jollofmuncher]

Its so sad that Ebola is deadly. I just want to say thank you to all the people who tried to cured ebola. They're the real heros.

[billnye]

These 101 videos are amazing and easy to understand. I can’t tell if they’re animations or actual microscopic images

I knew about Ebola Reston, Sudan and Zaire from Richard Preston's The Hot Zone, but I never heard of the other three. If anyone hasn't read that book, PLEASE read it, it's the most graphic and bone chilling thing you will read about. Description of the effects of virus is pgs 38-41 or 42, I believe.

Narrator: "... it caused most severe outbreak in this history..."
Coronavirus: Am I joke to you?

[nicolairomanoff]

Can you imagine if Ebola becomes the next global pandemic? Coronavirus is nothing compare to Ebola

[cesarst]

Props to all the medical personel who take care of these people. Heroes!
