Description
People responding to the Ebola outbreak are not immune to the disease. While the risk of contracting the virus is generally limited thanks to strict infection prevention measures, most responders come from communities affected by the outbreak, where there is a risk of transmission in everyday life.
Nationwide, hundreds of frontline responders have been infected, and dozens have died. Despite the challenges, thousands of frontline workers remain determined to help bring the epidemic under control and save lives.
