epidemics that almost happened (but didn't) - George Zaidan

What makes for an effective outbreak response? Explore successful systems from around the world that prevented epidemics.

In 2013, an Ebola outbreak began in Guinea. The country had no formal response system and the outbreak became the largest Ebola epidemic in recorded history. Guinea then completely overhauled their response system, and were able to successfully combat another outbreak in 2021. So what does an effective epidemic response look like? George Zaidan explores how different communities have taken action.
