Ebola: fears and facts

Ebola: fears and facts  clearly discusses the terrible disease, the terror it evokes and the search for a cure.  The Ebola epidemic of 2014 killed nearly 10,000 people and terrified the world with the fear of an uncontrollable pandemic.  The book is clear and concise, using photos and graphs to explain the spread of the disease and how it is contracted. Although there is not a “cure” for Ebola,  methods have been developed to curtail the spread of the disease.  Care to not touch an infected body and a prohibition against eating bush meat are both effective.  In a brief clear manner, this book answers many questions about a world problem.  It could be very useful in writing a middle school report.
