Red zone : Cuba and the battle against Ebola in West Africa

Author:	Enrique Ubieta Gómez; Martín Koppel; Mary-Alice Waters; Catriona Goss
Publisher:	New York : Pathfinder, 2019. ©2019
Edition/Format:	Print book : English
Summary:	In 2014 three West African countries were hit by the largest epidemic on record of the deadly Ebola virus. In response to an international call for help, Cuba's socialist government provided what was what no other country even tried to deliver. In a matter of weeks, more than 250 volunteer Cuban doctors, nurses, technicians, and public health specialists were on the ground providing hands-on care to thousands of desperately ill human beings and their traumatized families and communities. By mid-2015 the Ebola epidemic in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea had been virtually eradicated. Ubieta's firsthand reporting of this fight, told largely through accounts by the Cuban participants themselves, paints a graphic picture of the social disaster that unfolded in these three countries in 2014-2015, and how the enemy was defeated. --Adapted from publisher description.  Read more...
